Translation V/S Paraphrasing:

For taking The Gospel course the first thing which Professor Trott explained was about understanding about difference between Translation and Paraphrasing. its so important to get the differences. Through my searches Translation reflects the conservation of meaning when the concept is expressed in words in a different language, On the other hand, Paraphrasing is the preservation of meaning, when the idea is conveyed in the same language using different terms. So we have to read both to understand the exact meaning and got what God wants us to know.
