For those seeking clarity on Bible translation methods

Addresses confusion about translation accuracy and intent

You will gain a deeper understanding of God's Word

Explore the debate on Bible translations with Leland Ryken's insightful guide.

"Dynamic equivalence" vs. "essentially literal" translations---the debate has raged since the mid-20th century. An English professor at Wheaton College, Ryken reveals the history behind contemporary English translations; examines common fallacies; and probes the theological, ethical, and hermeneutical issues with modern interpretations. His thoughtful comparison shows why some Bibles may not truly be God's words.
