“Professor Ryken draws on decades of experience . . . to show that many modern English translations fail to meet accepted standards of excellence in accuracy, faithfulness to the words of the author, clarity, vividness, correctness . . . .”
“The persistent, detonating logic of Lee Ryken's pen will educate and convince any fair-minded person that the primary Bible for study and preaching must be an essentially literal translation.”
“A masterful and convincing argument for literal, that is to say, transparent translation of the Holy Scriptures.”
“An ideal guide to choosing a translation of the Word that transcends trendy words. In the process, he implicitly indicts those who settle for less.”
