Ezra 7:10 For Ezra had set his heart to study the law of the LORD and to practice it, and to teach His statutes and ordinances in Israel. (NASB: Lockman) (Read context 7:1-10 ) Four pastors were discussing the merits of the various translations of the Bible. One liked a particular version best because of its simple, beautiful English. Another preferred a more scholarly edition because it was closer to the original Hebrew and Greek. Still another liked a contemporary version because of its up-to-date vocabulary. The fourth minister was silent for a moment, then said, I like my mothers translation best. Surprised, the other three men said they didnt know his mother had translated the Bible. Yes, he replied. She translated it into life, and it was the most convincing translation I ever saw. Lets follow Ezras example by seeking the Word of God and translating it into life.
