my last post surveyed the english translations online at biblegateway.com. i did this because i'm unfamiliar with most of them, and i'm embarking on a Comprehensive Bible Reading Plan (365 Days). so far i've been reading each passage in two versions: The New International Version (NIV) and The Message.
the bible i have at home is not listed at biblegateway.com: the New Jerusalem Bible. it's a christmas gift almost 20 years ago from my mother and stepfather.
i did not know this until tonight, but the jerusalem bible translator of jonah was j.r.r. tolkein.

That is enormously cool.
Do you like the Message version?
Does it grow on you?
