The Bible remains the best gift ever received by Christian faith-communities. That’s true of the Santali Christians as well.  The Santali Bible was translated about 100 years back by Norwegian Missionaries. Now, BSI is undertaking a revision of this Santali Bible

Rev. Dr. Jonadob Nathaniel ( Director – Translations) and Mr. Subramani ( Senior Translations Consultant) are travelling up to Pakur, Jharkand.

Both Rev. Jonadob and Subramani will be with a group of Santali translators as part of the consultation for the proposed revision.  “ I love to serve the people”, says Rev. Dr. Jonadob who has been involved in Bible Translations for over 25 years. BSI will also be equipping and resourcing the translators  with necessary tools to undertake the revision.

The revision will provide the Santalis with better readability  and a more accurate translation. We are overwhelmed by the opportunity of making available God’s Word to the Santalis.
