Which Bible Do You Use?
Mister Brown
In this episode of Q&A with Mister Brown, I answer the question. Which Bible do I use? I recommend that you find a Bible that you really like and can understand. Use more translations to compare the text. There are Bible versions that are word-for-word translations and versions that are dynamic equivalents or translated for understanding. Some Bibles are a paraphrased, like The Message version. Paraphrases should be used with caution, understanding that the original meaning and intent of the writer are being interpreted in a certain way.
The Bibles I like are:
New American Standard (I used this through the 31 Days of Wisdom series)
English Standard Version
