THE BIBLE VERSION WE CHOSE IS IMPORTANT
THE BIBLE VERSION WE CHOSE IS IMPORTANT
The entire Bible was written by several Jewish people who lived over a vast period of time, within the Jewish
culture and laws, they usually lived in Israel, ate kosher food, worshipped God, spoke Hebrew and honoured
the written Word of God.
After Jesus established the new church about 2,000 years ago, the apostles went
out to preach to Gentiles outside Israel who did not speak Hebrew so the apostles’ writings needed to be
translated into various languages.
Reading a translation is in reality reading an interpretation.
Learning a
new language takes years and it is not practical for everyone to be able to read the Bible in Hebrew, its
original language.
If we read modern versions of the Bible, we may be surprised at how different the
translations are.
