The Message: The Bible in Contemporary Language
Translated directly from the ancient Hebrew and Greek
texts into today's contemporary American idiomatic
speech, The Message is designed as a reading Bible. With
no verse numbers or stiff, formal language, the
Scriptures unfold like a gripping novel. Passages we've
read many times before come alive, revealing the vibrant
energy and passion of God's Word. From the mysterious
Old Testament stories to the straightforward teachings
of Jesus, to the encouraging early church letters,
reading The Message will jump-start hearts, challenge
minds, and forever change lives. Although translated by
only one man and not by committee, this
"translational-paraphrase" was reviewed by theologians
to validate the accuracy of Peterson's translation from
the ancient Greek and Hebrew texts of the Bible. This
Bible is a paraphrase rather than a word-for-word
translation, but it is faithful to the original
languages and is an excellent (and very readable)
companion to a more traditional Bible translation.
The Narrated Bible in Chronological Order
The Narrated Bible presents Scripture in chronological
order to provide a fascinating tapestry of God's
creation, judgments, love, provision, and mercy. An
insightful descriptive narrative ties events together
and draws you irresistibly into the center of action and
a new understanding of the glory and power of God's
sovereignty.
