I have a couple copies of the bible. Children’s version and the standard version. Today, I stumbled upon a layman’s version. I thumbed through it and read a few pages and it flowed really nicely. I can read the standard version (with all the thou’s and hast’s) and understand it (much like when I did interpretation of Shakespeare in high school) and I get the jist of what is being said.
However, I feel I can cover more ground with better understanding by reading the layman’s version.
I’ll give it a try.
