Why use multiple translations? Using multiple translations while you study will give you a well-rounded understanding of the text at hand. Though it’s good to have a primary version for memorization and meditation, reading from different translations demonstrates sound scholarship and can help you better understand a passage by seeing what the biblical author meant in new ways. The Mixed Translation Equivalence (Formal and Functional) Bible Bundle 1 includes a selection of both formal and functional Bible translations to help you discover the full richness of meaning God intended: Lexham English Bible (LEB), New International Version (NIV), New Living Translation (NLT), New American Standard Bible, 2020 Update (NASB), English Standard Version (ESV), and Christian Standard Bible (CSB).
