3. The Present ProjectIn December 1996 the Bishop of Truro's Advisory Group arranged a seminar in St Austell and appointed a Co-ordinator to advance the work; and for the first time it was decided that all translations would be based firmly on the Greek and Hebrew originals. For this reason some of the earlier translations (e.g. Matthew, Mark) have had to be revised, and others (e.g. John, Luke Ruth, Philemon, Obadiah, Jonah) completely retranslated. At the same time it was decided to complete the New Testament and publish it by 2004, the centenary of Jenner's 'Handbook'. That aim was achieved, with its publication by The Cornish Language Board, and its launch in St Petroc's Church, Bodmin, in August 2004. A copy was presented formally to the Archbishop of Canterbury at a ceremony in Truro Cathedral in November 2004. In the case of the Old Testament, there is much work still to be done, but the work continues slowly, and the books are being done more or less in order of priority. The texts on which the work of this Project is based are: K.Elliger, W.Rudolph, Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia, 1990 A.Rahlfs, Septuaginta, 1935 Nestle, Aland, Novum Testamentum Graece, 27th edition, 1995
