What if every Bible you’ve ever read is already an interpretation — not just of words, but of theology itself? In this episode, we explore the hidden battle behind every sacred translation: the tension between preserving ancient language and making timeless truths understandable today. From the shift that turned a “young girl” into a “virgin,” to the debate over whether Scripture should be treated as an exact script or an unfolding story, we uncover why translation is never neutral. And we ask: when translators choose between literal accuracy and meaningful clarity, what do we gain — and what do we risk losing?
