With so many Bible translations available today, how can you find those that will be most useful to you? What is the difference between a translation that calls itself “literal” and one that is more “meaning-based”? And what difference does it make for you as a reader of God’s Word?

How To Choose A Translation For All It’s Worth brings clarity and insight to the current debate over translations and translation issues. Written by two seasoned Bible translators, here is an authoritative guide through the maze of translations issues, written in language that everyday Bible readers can understand.

Gordon D. Fee (PhD, University of Southern California) is a professor of New Testament at Regent College, Vancouver, British Columbia and is the author of How to Read the Bible for All It’s Worth. Mark L. Strauss (PhD, Aberdeen) is a professor of New Testament at Bethel Seminary in San Diego. He has written many books including Distorting Scripture? and The Challenge of Bible Translation and Gender Accuracy.

    The Good Book Stall

    Average rating of0.0

    As a Bookseller it is always a challenge when a customer asks to purchase a Bible without any particular version in mind, because to fully appreciate the Word of God, the user must have the right version for their needs. This book takes a huge step towards not only pointing the reader in the right direction, but also explaining how the different versions are right for different purposes. A newcomer will require one, an academic another. It is also informative and fascinating to discover how translators approach their work, and how they do bear the reader in mind.
