Dennis G. Perry's How We Got Our Bible is a comprehensive and well-<br>researched examination of Bible translation from an Evangelical<br>perspective. The book meticulously traces the historical journey of<br>biblical texts, exploring the significance of translation efforts, <br>theological accuracy, and textual integrity. Perry provides a clear and<br>engaging introduction to the principles that guide Evangelicals in<br>selecting and assessing translations, emphasizing the authority, <br>inerrancy, and sufficiency of Scripture.<br>A standout feature of the book is its treatment of the Apocrypha and<br>the Canon of Scripture, where Perry carefully outlines Evangelical<br>reasons for rejecting these books as divinely inspired. The discussion<br>of translation methodologies, from the Masoretic Text to modern<br>dynamic equivalence approaches, highlights the ongoing challenge of<br>balancing faithfulness to the original languages with contemporary<br>readability. Additionally, the book provides a compelling narrative on<br>the historical impact of Bible translation, from the Septuagint and<br>Latin Vulgate to the King James Version and modern translations like<br>the NASB and ESV.<br>Overall, Perry successfully combines historical scholarship with<br>theological reflection, making this book a valuable resource for<br>anyone seeking to understand the complexity and significance of<br>Bible translation in the Evangelical tradition.
