1.3.4 About the Author — John Griffin
John Griffin is the editor and translator of The Bible Restored. His work on this project flows from a sincere desire to encounter and present the Scriptures as faithfully as possible to their original witness.
The intention behind this restoration is straightforward: to return to the ancient texts with care and humility, allowing them to speak clearly in their own voice. This includes examining the Hebrew and Greek sources, preserving the integrity of the manuscripts, and presenting the message in a way that prioritises the God revealed in Scripture — a God of mercy, life, restoration, and love.
The Bible Restored is offered not as a personal interpretation, but as a tool to help readers engage directly with the ancient witnesses. The hope is that it will support a clearer understanding of the gospel — one centred on the life, healing, and reconciling work of Jesus Christ, led by the same Spirit who inspired the Scriptures.
John’s role is simply that of a servant of the text: to listen carefully, restore honestly, and make the ancient voices accessible once more, so that others may hear and respond to God’s enduring message of truth and grace.
