None of us living in the 21st century is naive enough to think that we can strip away all of the cultural differences between first century agrarian peoples and our urban, western mindset. But we can stretch our minds and hearts, via literal and less traditional language, so that we might consider afresh the words of the carpenter's son.
Authentic Teaching of Jesus contains all of the primary teaching passages of the Book of Matthew as found in Holy Wind Living Breath New Testament. The language is contemporary, but very literal and less anthropomorphic than most English versions of the Bible.
