Episode 3: What's With All the Bible Translations?

Open Seat

Today's Episode
Welcome to the Open Seat Podcast! On today's episode, we discuss the qualities and characteristics of good Bible translations. Next, we discuss how the different goals and interpretations of translation groups lead to a spectrum of English Bible translations, and we discuss how these versions are different. We end by providing four examples of similarities and differences in various English translations as they work to capture the original meaning of the Greek.
Our Mission
We recognize that the Bible was written in languages full of richness and beauty. Our goal is to explore the beauty of the New Testament, written in Koine Greek, that can sometimes become obscured in English translations. We desire to bridge the gap of scholarship and make these conversations about Biblical Greek accessible to all curious people. Whether you have studied Greek for years or you are embarking on this journey today, all are welcome to take a seat at the Table.
