{"product_id":"9781602641143","title":"The Living Words-Volume 1","description":"Reading 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.\" When-ever 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.","brand":"Virtualbookworm.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47031319265520,"sku":"9781602641143","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781602641143_p0.jpg?v=1763814582","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781602641143","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
