Biblia Cornilescu APPLICATION description
Introduction to Biblia Cornilescu
Dumitru Cornilescu (4 April 1891 - 1975) was a Romanian archdeacon who wrote a popular translation of the Bible into Romanian, published in 1921. He became a Romanian Orthodox, then a Protestant priest. Cornilescu's translation is the most popular version of the Bible among Romanian Protestants.
From 1923 to 1924 Cornilescu lived at 2 Rutland Park Gardens, Willesden, London NW2 in England where he worked on the revision of the Bible with the Bible Society. The revised edition was published in 1924. Cornilescu gave his text to the Bible Society, and the text was adopted as the official BFBS Bible text for Romania, and this is basically the main Cornilescu Bible which is used in Romania today.
Initially the Bible was widely circulated, but by 1924 a number of objections had been raised by Orthodox priests and theologians. For example the Greek word "presbyteroi" was translated literally as „prezbiteri” ("elders") and not „preoți” ("priests"), a decision that was seen as a threat to the Orthodox belief in apostolic succession. Cornilescu's translation was not approved by the Holy Synod of the Romanian Orthodox Church. By the early 1930s, its huge success led the Orthodox religious authorities to try to stop its dissemination in rural areas. To this end, they appealed to Gheorghe Mironescu, the Minister of the Interior, who in 1933 prohibited the Bible's distribution in Romanian villages.[3] However the translation had the support of many people, including King Carol II.
The controversy prompted the creation of an approved Orthodox version, translated by Vasile Radu and Grigorie Pișculescu, published in 1938 (revised 1968 and 1975).[4]
In 1924 another controversy occurred when Scripture Gift Mission (SGM) reproduced the text without permission of Cornilescu nor the Bible Society, and Cornilescu made it clear that he wanted his text to be published only by the Bible Society.
Because of the opposition, Cornilescu left the Orthodox Church. Along with Tudor Popescu (a former priest at the Cuibul cu barză Church), he founded the Evangelical Church of Romania, which initially met in the hall of the Anglican Church, provided by Rev. J. H. Adeney. His translation became the standard Protestant version in Romania. The popularity of this version is evidenced by the large number of reprints: 1931, 1942, 1946 etc., with unofficial revisions made by different people and groups since 1989, followed by many new editions (in 1990, 1996, 2000, 2002, 2005 etc).
From 1927 Cornilescu worked on revising the old BFBS Romanian translation from 1911, to update the existing more literal translation. In September 1927, with his Swiss wife and their son, he returned to England, where he worked with the Bible Society on a Bible revision. He lived first at 81 Hythe Road, Brighton and then at 327 Ditchling Road, Brighton. In August 1929 the family returned to Switzerland. This was printed in 1931 as a Family Bible and is sometimes known as the Traducere Literală Cornilescu (Cornilescu literal translation).
