A Kindle Bargain about Bible Translations

One Bible, Many Versions: Are All Translations Created Equal? By Dave Brunn. Rated 4 1/2 stars from 26 reviews at the present moment. Print list price $18.00; digital list price $14.99; Kindle price now $2.99. http://www.amazon.com/One-Bible-Many...eated+Equal%3F. Spring for the ebook in the epub format, and you can get it at Christianbook for $2.39, saving 60 cents. http://www.christianbook.com/bible-v...G&view=details. The ebook is available at Kobo, discounted, but is much more expensive. It may be available elsewhere, I did not check any other places.

Granted the Digital Book World QED seal for quality in ebook design

What makes a Bible translation faithful? Is one version superior to others? Do we really need more than one translation? How can answering these questions help us become better Bible readers?

Dave Brunn has been involved in Bible translation work around the world for many years. From the perspective of this on-the-ground experience in different cultures he helps us sort out the many competing claims for various English Bible translations.

By giving us a better understanding of the process of translation, Brunn helps us read and understand Scripture more clearly. He demonstrates how the variety of translations enables us to grasp more fully the meaning of the biblical text.

This clear, readable and informative work will be of special interest to pastors, undergraduate and seminary students, missionaries, Bible translators, Bible study leaders and anyone involved in Christian ministry.
