We discuss Kenneth Taylor's The Living Bible. We look into his history, marriage, Tyndale House Publishers, Billy Graham and issues with Taylor's Bible translation. What was his goal for his Bible? What is a paraphrase? How is it different from a word-for-word translation or a dynamic equivalent translation? Did his Bible sell many copies?
