Languages are spoken before they are written. And far more communication is done through the spoken word than through the written word. In fact, more people hear the Bible read than read it for themselves, Traditional translations of the Bible count on the reader's ability to understand a written text. But the Contemporary English Version differs from most other English Bibles in that it takes into consideration the needs of the hearer, as weU as those of the reader, who may not be familiar with traditional biblical language.
Ask, and you will receive Search, and you will find.Knock, and the door will be opened for you.Everyone who asks will receive,Everyone who searches will find.And the door will be opened for everyone who knocks.
