Subject: Most accurate translation of Bible? |
Bible Note: heart4missions: Welcome to the Study Bible Forum! I like yoor pen name, my wife and I have a sincere heat for missons as well. The Amplified Bible is just what it says...amplified. The words are given a wider and more depth of the meanings of the words. For just reading it is sometimes a bit laborsome, as it is easy to get tangled up in the many choices of words. I have said the best Bible is the one you read. Just getting Christians to read the Word is a huge task. We live in a time when people would rather hear than read. The bible is the best selling book of all times, but it is the least read as well. Proberly most of us might admit it takes real dedication to stay in the word on a consistant basis. For just reading I enjoy the NIV best of all, but sericous study is often found in the NASB for me. Thanks for your note, I hope you enjoy the SBF. justme |
