Comments on Holy Injil, Luke

“I have found this English edition to be appreciated... and makes a wonderful friendly introduction to the Word.”

“... the wonderful ‘Holy Injil Luke’... really is a first rate contextualised translation, and so sensitive and thoughtful in its approach, footnotes and appendices.”

“A young woman from Indonesia looked at the literature but refused NT etc in her native tongue saying she was a Muslim. I then offered her your book. She scanned it and was so excited to accept it. Others have shown similar joy in accepting. “

“They are well presented and were very well received.”

“For a competent interested English reader, it is a fantastic resource.”

“I and many people I know have been using the Holy Injil Luke for a couple of years now. I love it!”

“Your version of the ‘Holy Injil’ has been a really exciting find for us, as it is just so accessible for (local Muslims).”

“a terrific English translation for Muslims.”

Recommendations for 'Holy Injil, Luke'

“We recommend it as a translation to be used in discussion with Muslims to shed light on the beautiful and majestic life that is Jesus Christ without hampering them by using terminology not familiar to their ears. And we already know of Muslims who have read it with joy.”

— Tom & Judi

“Duncan Peter has prepared this version of Luke’s Gospel for a conservative Muslim audience. There are helpful appendices dealing with the most common Muslim questions, like the allegation that the text of the Bible has been changed, and the objection that God cannot have a son”

— Julyan

“The translation is brilliantly done and is enhanced by excellent notes and appendices which face the difficult critical questions Muslim readers may have with deep sensitivity and wisdom. From a Christian perspective, this unique volume will not only prove invaluable in developing conversations with Muslim neighbours and friends, but it points toward the future of mission in a pluralist world.”

— David

Review by

Riz, from Across Woking (Mahabba Woking)

What did you think?

I've just finished the book by Chris Aslan which I really enjoyed.

I found it to be an easy read and what I liked most was that it was so good at transporting you to a different culture yet you were still able to identify with the characters in the story because of the similarities we share through the human condition.

We can all identify with the emotional struggles these women face in terms of rejection, the pressure to conform, shame, physical hardship and much more.

The joy and turning point in this book is when we are led to the hope that exists in the teacher's grace and gentleness and not through the religiosity of the village elders advocating striving through works for the Lord’s favour.

It’s not overtly Christian, but as a believer I can see how this book could benefit readers by highlighting the difference between living life with a heavy yoke as opposed to the invitation to live life with a yoke that is light and free from burden.

It’s a great read for young women (Muslim or other) who do not yet know their true position in Christ.

As a believer, I enjoyed making the connections between the characters in the story with the Biblical characters and how subtle the writer was in introducing them into this story.
