Modern Critical Text Bible versions examined

Listed below are some very important changes that can be found in most or all of the “modern version” Bible translations. Specifically, this list includes the NIV, ESV, NASB-1977, NASB-95, NASB-2020, NLT, NET, and NAB; sometimes the HCSB (2004), the CSB (2017), or other translations are noted as well, in a few more unusual cases.

*) signifies the 1881/1885 Revised Version (RV) follows the KJV, not modern versions.
‡) signifies where 1901 ASV translation follows the KJV rather than modern versions.
§) signifies a variant between the received text and at least one majority text

“No one has ever seen God; the only God, who is at the Father’s side, he has made him known.” ESV
“No one has ever seen God. The only one, himself God, who is in closest fellowship with the Father, has made God known.” NET⁷⁷Note: The corruption to John 1:18 found in the ESV, NET, NASB and some other translations was used primarily or entirely by the Gnostics and later the Arians, such as at the Second Creed of Antioch in AD 341. The Arians taught the idea that Jesus Christ was a created sub-deity, and they denied that Jesus Christ, the Son, is of the same substance with God the Father. The same also referred to Christ using the new term, recently found in the ESV and NASB-2020 version of John 1:18. Characteristically, the Trinitarians historically refer to Christ as the “only-begotten Son” (similar to John 3:16, and the received form of John 1:18) instead of “only-begotten god.”⁷⁸Compare the alternative reading of John 1:18 in the ESV, NET, and NASB-2020 at John 1:18 with the Gnostic belief in the Valentinian tradition about a “lesser deity” which they referred to as “the only-begotten” god [μονογενὴς θεὸς].
