Romans (Lexham Interpreter’s Translation)

I am currently preaching through Romans and I am very much enjoying using the Lexham Interpreter’s Translation of Romans by Michael F. Bird. It is a focused and fresh way to study the book of Romans.

The small size of the book makes it convenient to carry around. I have kept it in my backpack so I can study on the go.

It allows me quick access to the Greek-English interlinear, and the focused study notes are helpful without being overwhelming. I am most interested to read Bird’s paraphrase as a fresh, personal, and novel touch to an academic study.

From the publisher:

In this Lexham Interpreter's Translation volume on Romans, Michael F. Bird gives readers the pieces to move easily between the letter’s Greek text and its interpretation. For each passage, Bird provides a Greek-English interlinear alongside his own interpretive paraphrase, with notes on historical background, Greek insights, and translation choices.

• Read the Greek and English of Romans in parallel

• Grasp the nuances of the Greek text, its translation, and its interpretation

• Encounter a fresh paraphrase of Romans and understand the choices behind it
