Putting to Test the Recovery Version

"Some of the notes are good and helpful, but many promote some of the peculiar teachings of The Local Church" .

Actually, many bible translations promote the peculiar teachings of something or someone.

The Anglican Church’s King James Bible took decades to overcome the more popular Protestant Church’s Geneva Bible. One of the greatest ironies of history, is that many Protestant Christian churches today embrace the King James Bible exclusively as the “only” legitimate English language translation… yet it is not even a Protestant translation! It was printed to compete with the Protestant Geneva Bible, by authorities who throughout most of history were hostile to Protestants… and killed them

The Anglicans did not like Calvin's footnotes in the Geneva bible, so they produced their own (the KJV), and forced people to use it.

So instead of being hypocrites about it, if you don't like bible versions with footnotes by someone, why don't you all go back to using the Latin Vulgate?
