Summary

"De Nyew Testament" offers the New Testament in the Gullah dialect, a creole language spoken by the Gullah people of the coastal regions of South Carolina and Georgia. This unique translation, published by the American Bible Society in 2005, is presented in a luxurious leather-bound edition with 899 pages. The Gullah dialect, with its rich African and English influences, provides a distinctive and profound reading experience for those familiar with the language and culture. This edition includes the marginal text of the King James version, allowing for comparison and deeper study.

Interesting

The Gullah language is an English-based creole vernacular that has been preserved through the isolation of the Sea Islands and the strong community bonds of the Gullah people. The translation of the New Testament into Gullah took over 20 years to complete, signifying a monumental effort to honor and maintain the linguistic heritage of the Gullah/Geechee culture[3][9]. The Gullah Bible not only serves as a religious text but also as a testament to the resilience and continuity of the Gullah language and identity.
