"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.
