Given the wealth of English translations of the Bible available
today, how can anyone know which is the right one for them? The
options seem overwhelming. Biblical scholar Ron Rhodes provides an
easy-to-read guide that takes the guesswork out of choosing a
Bible. He critiques the prominent theories of translation, lets
readers in on the debate about gender-inclusive language, and
thoroughly covers the major English translations from the "King
James Version" to the "New Living Translation" and everything in
between, including the two most recent Bibles for Catholics. His
examination of each version includes; the story behind the
translation; the translation theory used; the intended readership;
pluses and minuses; and, comparisons with other translations. A
unique feature is Rhodes' look at secondary factors to keep in mind
when choosing a Bible, such as the type size, the quality of the
paper, the existence and placement of cross references and other
study helps, and the types of bindings. The result is an
indispensable guide to help readers through the maze of choosing
the translation best suited for them.
