After repeated updates it was finally + published in the current form in 1896 and again, with new headlines in 1996 + and subsequently by Elam Ministries with new headings and cross references. + These headlines are not included in this version. It is currently in use + within most Iranian and Afghani churches under the name "Tarjumeh-ye Ghadeem" + or "Old Translation". It is famous for its literary quality and faithfulness + to the original texts. Its original copyright holder, the Iranian Bible + Society, was dissolved by force by the Iranian post-revolutionary government + in 1990. In all likelihood this text is now public domain simply due to its + age, but users are asked to respect the International Bible Society's request + to use this text only in non-commercial ways until full clarity on its legal + status has been obtained. + </longdescription> +</pkgmetadata> |
