If you're tracking with these blogs you may like to know that I'm using two translations of the bible. Both my favourites - if they did a dual bible with both the 'Message' and 'Amplified' translations - I'd buy it in a shot!
I love the 'Message' for it's simplicity and use of everyday language - always sounds like you're having a chat. The Amplified on the other hand - is VERY wordy - expanding and using several words to get across the description or meaning of the text. In the pictures I've tended to put any words from the 'Message' bible in red to distinguish between the two translations - though watch out! I may even throw in another translation before the 40 days is up!
