The Voice Bible is a wonderfully descriptive work to add
to your Bible translation library.
It is a plethora of succinctly
and beautifully written verses with the addition of historical narration which
delivers a dramatic flair making it an unparalleled version of the Holy Bible.
The Voice Bible, by Ecclesia Bible Society is a beautifully written
translation of the Holy Bible. This work,
beginning as a vision by Chris Seay, pastor of Houston ’s
Ecclesia Church
I am especially impressed with
both of the introductions into the Old and New Testaments. The description of the “Four Covenants”,
given prior to embarking on the New Testament reading, presents a very clear
and accurate foundational teaching of the covenant relationship between us
and our Lord. The format utilized throughout
the work, is one of various conversations between each of the characters. Frequently interjected into the story is “the
voice” which I would describe as a narrator.
These sections are not part of scripture, but serve to describe the
culture of the day and play a vital role in assisting the reader’s depth of
comprehension.
The Voice Bible translation is a collaborate effort from a team of translators who worked alongside poets, writers and musicians. I found it to be refreshing and interactive. I would highly recommend reading this translation and acquiring a “hard copy” to place in your library for easy access!
I would like to thank Thomas
Nelson Publishing Company for this review copy of The Voice Bible that I
received through BookSneeze. The
opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
