Why the Jehovah’s Witness Bible Is Rejected by Scholars (And What They Don’t Tell You About the NWT)

In this video, we’re diving deep into the New World Translation (NWT) — the Jehovah’s Witness Bible — and examining the major reasons it’s been rejected by mainstream biblical scholars. While Jehovah’s Witnesses claim the NWT restores God's name and removes theological bias, critics argue it does the opposite — inserting Watch Tower doctrine directly into the text.

We’ll walk through:

● The Watchtower Society’s claims about why they created their own Bible version.
● The scholarly and theological red flags surrounding its translation choices.
● Key verses where the NWT dramatically departs from mainstream translations — such as John 1:1, Colossians 1, and Titus 2:13.
● The controversial insertion of “Jehovah” in the New Testament, despite zero manuscript evidence.
● The omission of verses like Acts 8:37 and John 7:53–8:11 and what that reveals about the NWT's editorial strategy.

Whether you’re a Christian, an ex-JW, or someone researching Bible translation integrity, this video gives you clear examples, comparisons, and facts that matter. Is the NWT a faithful rendering of God’s Word — or a tool for doctrinal control?
