“The Bible addresses issues that missionaries don’t. People in different situations see things in the Bible that others miss. Missionaries come with a whole load of cultural baggage and they will never be able to see the Bible in the way that people from a very different culture will. By making the Bible available to people, translators provide the capacity for people to dive into the Bible on their own and to dig out things that the missionaries would never see in a million years.” —Eddie Arthur
