Have you ever wondered why there are so many translations of the Bible? It can be overwhelming and challenging to make sense of the differences, similarities, strengths, and weakness of each. With over 400 English translations to choose from, how do you know one is right for you? This book is here to help. Chapter by chapter, it tells the story of many different versions of the Bible, including information about their historical context, the people who translated them, and what makes them unique.

Bible Translations for Everyone contains:

  • An introduction to how Bible translations work.

Excellent review of Bible translations

I have been a regular of Tim’s You Tube videos so I was really looking forward to this book.
It’s a really excellent review of Bible translations. I thought I knew a lot already but I still learnt so much from this book. It’s certainly given me a real insight into translations I hadn’t considered. I’m looking forward to assembling my ‘team’ of translations to study God’s word now and in the future.
