{"product_id":"the-living-words-volume-1","title":"The Living Words-Volume 1","description":"\u003cp\u003eReading a translation of any book is just not the same as reading it in its original language and is adequately stated in the phrase \"lost in the translation.\" Whenever a text is translated from one language to another it loses some of its flavor and substance. The problem is compounded by the fact that a language is tied to the culture that uses that language. When the text is read by a culture different from the one it is written in, it loses its cultural context. A Biblical example of this can be found in the Hebrew word tsur which is translated as a rock - \"He only is my rock and my salvation, he is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved\" (Psalm 62:2, KJV). What is a rock and how does it apply to God? To us it may mean solid, heavy or hard but the cultural meaning of the word tsur is a high place in the rocks where one runs to for refuge and defense, a place of salvation. \"The Living Words\" is an in-depth study into the Ancient Hebrew vocabulary and culture of the Bible replacing the flavor and substance that has been removed from us.\u003c\/p\u003e\r","brand":"Jeff Benner","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44450088976620,"sku":"9781602641143","price":23.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0684\/1791\/3068\/files\/9781602641143.jpg?v=1779502622","url":"https:\/\/intl.allstora.com\/products\/the-living-words-volume-1","provider":"Allstora","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
