Reading the Bible in translation is like kissing your bride through the veil. Hayim Nahman Bialik (Jewish poet)

Description

We are all aware that modern versions probably have some inaccuracies. After all, they say different things sometimes! "But how bad can it really be?" the modern reader often wonders. This fascinating roundtable conference – conducted live in May 2020 – considers this and many other questions.
