Review title: Beware: This is not a Bible
Product review: Yes, the Clear Word Bible Paraphrase is easy to read, but it is both deceptive and disturbing. First, this is a Bible paraphrase, not the Bible. It was written by a 7th-Day Adventist (SDA) scholar (nowhere on the cover or sleeve is this noted), and the text has been rewritten from an SDA perspective. Biblical passages have been shortened, lengthened, and generally rewritten, without any citations to tell you what parts are Biblical, what has been deleted, and what has been added. All of this has been done to make the scriptures agree with SDA theology, again, without any mention of the SDA Church. Take a moment and compare the CWB with a good Bible translation like the KJV, NASB, etc. It may be good writing, but it's not a Bible.
