As Tom Wright observes: `Translating [the bible] is something that each generation ought to be doing. Just as Jesus taught us to pray for our daily bread, we can never simply live on yesterday's bread, on the interpretations and translations of previous generations.'The Bible for Everyone is the result of a passionate conviction that scripture should be something that everyone can read, understand and enjoy. Two world-renowned Bible scholars and communicators have therefore undertaken a tremendous task: to draw together, revise and supplement the translations that appear in their popular `For Everyone' commentaries, making a rounded, readable and reliable version of the Bible that will prove helpful to people of all religious backgrounds at every stage of their lives. Broken up into easy-to-read, bite-sized chunks, and including helpful introductions to each biblical book plus informative maps and a substantial glossary of key words, here is a compelling new rendering of ancient wisdom that can be read like a novel, studied in sections or used as an aid to daily devotion.","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56232212791669,"sku":"9780281074013","price":30.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9780281074013_44bb694a-5e38-43ad-b87c-1e987e8b232c.jpg?v=1786012896"},{"product_id":"9780802879417","title":"Proverbs","description":"\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56294918324597,"sku":"9780802879417","price":31.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9780802879417_e71d8dce-d29a-4e1d-900d-5082d52302c6.jpg?v=1786016212"},{"product_id":"9780801035722","title":"Genesis","description":"\u003cb\u003eExplore the contemporary significance of the Old Testament and hear the Word of God afresh\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHighly regarded Old Testament scholar John Goldingay offers a substantive and useful commentary on the book of Genesis that is both critically engaged and sensitive to the theological contributions of the text.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn addition to paragraph-level commentary, all volumes of the Baker Commentary on the Old Testament series feature:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e● A fresh translation of the Hebrew text\u003cbr\u003e● Incisive comments based on the author's translation\u003cbr\u003e● Linguistic, historical, and canonical insights\u003cbr\u003e● Concluding reflections\u003cbr\u003e● Footnotes addressing technical matters\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePastors, teachers, and all serious students of the Bible will find here an accessible commentary that will serve as an excellent resource for their study.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis volume, the first in a series on the Pentateuch, complements the successful Baker Commentary on the Old Testament: Wisdom and Psalms series.
