B-Hebrewers,

I'm not alone in thinking in spectrums see:-

It's interesting that they put the NIV right in the middle
of what I would call dynamic equivalence. They say:-

>"The translators of the New International Version sought to make a
>version that was midway between a literal rendering (as in the New American
>Standard Bible) and a free paraphrase (as in The Living Bible).
