For more than two years, Eugene Peterson devoted all his efforts toThe Message New Testament. His primary goal was to capture the toneof the text and the original conversational feel of the Greek, incontemporary English. He hoped to bring the New Testament to lifefor two different types of people. The first group were those whohadn't read the Bible because it seemed too distant, irrelevant,and antiquated. The second group were those who had read the Bibleall their lives but now found it "old hat," so familiar that theywere no longer startled by the truth of its message. Language isalways changing. When we hear something over and over again in thesame way, we can become so familiar with it that the text loses itsimpact. The Message strives to help readers hear the living Word ofGod the Bible in a way that engages and intrigues us right where weare. The Message is designed to be read by contemporary people inthe same way as the original koiné Greek and Hebrew manuscriptswere savored by people thousands of years ago. Some people like toread the Bible in Elizabethan English. Others want to read aversion that gives a close word-for-word correspondence between theoriginal languages and English. Eugene Peterson recognized that theoriginal sentence structure is very different from that ofcontemporary English. He decided to strive for the spirit of theoriginal manuscripts to express the rhythm of the voices, theflavor of the idiomatic expressions, the subtle connotations ofmeaning that are often lost in English translations. The goal ofThe Message is to engage people in the reading process and helpthem understand what they read. This is not a study Bible, butrather "a reading Bible." The verse numbers, which are not in theoriginal documents, have been left out to facilitate easy andenjoyable reading. The original books of the Bible were not writtenin formal language. The Message tries to recapture the Word in thewords we use today.

Why was The Message written? The best answertothat question comes from Eugene Peterson himself: ""While Iwasteaching a class on Galatians, I began to realize that theadultsin my class weren't feeling the vitality and directness thatIsensed as I read and studied the New Testament in itsoriginalGreek. Writing straight from the original text, I began toattemptto bring into English the rhythms and idioms of theoriginallanguage. I knew that the early readers of the NewTestament werecaptured and engaged by these writings and I wantedmy congregationto be impacted in the same way. I hoped to bring theNew Testamentto life for two different types of people: those whohadn't readthe Bible because it seemed too distant and irrelevantand thosewho had read the Bible so much that it had become'oldhat.'""
