First Full Bible for Aborigines Aims to Reach the 'Insides'

After nearly 30 years and more than 100 linguists, the first full Bible for Australia’s aborigines is now available.

The Bible in Kriol, the most widely-spoken indigenous language in Australia, was launched on Saturday at the 40th Katherine Christian Convention in Australia, according to Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC).

“They actually now have access to the entire text of the Christian Bible,” said Phillip Zamagias, director of the Bible Society in the Northern Territory in Australia, to ABC. “It means they can read it for themselves.

“They can really understand it and they can make their own choices about whether they want to follow Jesus as their Lord and savior,” he added.
