What's in a Version?

Which one?
Which one?
And for what?

by Henry Neufeld
$12.99

The best Bible version is the one you read!
-- Henry Neufeld

124 pages
Glossary, Index, Scripture Index

This book will help you learn compare Bible translations to find out which is the best Bible version for you.

"What I intend to do in this book is present an overview of how translations are produced, what makes them different from one another and how a reader who doesn't know the source languages (Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek) can choose a version or versions of the Bible for use. Since many people don't know how the Bible came into existence, how its text has been preserved, and how translation is accomplished, they are subject to misinformation. The differences between the various versions can be frightening when they are not understood. How can there be so many differences unless someone is being careless, or even worse, someone is intentionally altering God's word?

"I have kept this book short intentionally and interspersed it with many illustrations. It is not intended for a scholarly audience, but rather for the layperson who wants some practical information. The Bibliography contains a list of works for those who want to explore the subject of translations more extensively."
-- Henry Neufeld
