Bible Translations & Paraphrases
There are two major types of Bibles. Translations are Bibles that go back to the original language and manuscripts to give the most precise reading the scholar(s) has to offer. A paraphrase does not look for a one-to-one correspondence to the original text. It is written in a way that modern readers will understand the spirit of the teaching. Both are useful in different situations. For Bible Study, it can be particularly helpful to have a translation of the Bible. If you looking for a fresh perspective for daily living, a paraphrase might be more helpful. It is also interesting to be able to compare the two readings to discover similarities and differences.
