The Message was written by Eugene Peterson who hoped to bring the Bible to life for two different types of people: those who hadnt read the Bible because it seemed too distant and irrelevant and those who had read the Bible so much that it had become old hat." His primary goal was to capture the tone of the text and the original conversational feel of the Greek, in contemporary English.

There is a need in every generation to keep the language of the gospel message current, fresh, and understandable—the way it was for its very first readers. That is what The Message seeks to accomplish for contemporary readers. It is a version for our time—designed to be read by contemporary people in the same way as the original koin Greek and Hebrew manuscripts were savored by people thousands of years ago.

The goal of The Message is to engage people in the reading process and help them understand what they read. This is not a study Bible, but rather "a reading Bible." The verse numbers, which are not in the original documents, have been left out of the print version to facilitate easy and enjoyable reading. The original books of the Bible were not written in formal language. The Message tries to recapture the Word in the words we use today.
