These days there are hundreds versions of the Bible and this is due to the fact that different methods have been used to translate the biblical texts into English. As a book with priceless value and huge influence throughout the centuries people have been trying to provide the best translation of the biblical manuscripts originally written in Greek, Hebrew and Aramaic. Interpreting the original texts is not easy, especially into modern language considering the fact that many ancient phrases and words from the original texts don't have their modern English counterparts that can best convey their meaning. All Bible translations can be divided into three main categories: word-for-word, thought-for-thought and paraphrased translations. Each of these offer their own unique approach to interpreting the Bible. The main characteristic of the thought-for-thought versions is the simple language. These translations are not focused on interpreting every single word from the original manuscripts, but rather they try to express the meaning of each biblical paragraph. This is way they convey the biblical message but they are not often reliable for biblical study. Paraphrased versions use modern wording and are not the most accurate interpretation of the original texts. When it comes to accuracy word-for-word translation provide a profound insight in the biblical texts and make use of modern wording to provide an accurate interpretation of each Greek or Hebrew word. One of the best examples of the word-for-word translation is the ESV Study Bible which gives a fresh and unique perspective to the ancient pearls of wisdom and guides you on that special spiritual journey of understanding God's word and divine plan.
