About this title

About the Author

The author was born in Georgetown, the capital of Guyana, a former colony of the United Kingdom.In his later teenage years he migrated to Barbados, an island in the sunny Caribbean sea. Then in his twenty's to the UK where he spent the better portion of seven years living and studying. It was during his seven year tenor in the UK that the author came to know and follow Jesus Christ.The place and circumstance that is the United Kingdom also constitutes 'the' occasion of the discovery of two little known linguistic keying systems employed consistently by Old Testament LXX translators, and New Testament writers. Immediately following the discovery the author migrated to Denmark, where he now resides with his wife Birte and son Joshua.On the best of days, one could find the this enigmatic wayfarer prayerfully charting the little known courses of the biblical languages, or ardently perusing the country lanes of Jutland. Beyond these, Keith Shepherd spearheads pioneering work on two notable projects: Hebron; the research and re-translation of the Christian Bible, and Harvest Fields; the timely dissemination of the findings of his research, and the completed translation.Keith's entire outlook on life is crystal clear, as it is Christological. In his own words: "Life is not life if its end and ending is death, but life is life and eternal, because life is Jesus Christ."
