<ul><li>We still don't fully like the copyright notice for the NET Bible, but in our litigious world it remains a challenge...</li>
<li>We believe that 1 Tim 5:17-18 (the author has the right to be paid) and Lev 23:22 (allow the poor and foreigner free access) can be simultaneously satisfied far better with a new Internet model...</li>
<li>We want all authors to know that the NET Bible is a safe choice.</li>

Strauss</a> see the NET (along with the <a href="NIV" class="mw-redirect" title="NIV">NIV</a> and the <a href="HCSB" class="mw-redirect" title="HCSB">HCSB</a>) as a "mediating version" between <a href="Dynamic_and_formal_equivalence" class="mw-redirect" title="Dynamic and formal equivalence">functional equivalence and formal equivalence</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>In the preface to the first edition, <a href="W._Hall_Harris_III" title="W. Hall Harris III">W. Hall Harris III</a>, PhD, "The NET Bible Project Director" claims that the NET Bible solves the problem of dynamic vs. formal equivalence:
</p>
<blockquote class="templatequote"><p>
[T]he translators and editors used the notes to give <i>a translation that was formally equivalent, while placing a somewhat more functionally [or </i>dynamically<i>] equivalent translation in the text itself to promote better readability and understandability</i>. The longstanding tension between these two different approaches to Bible translation has thus been fundamentally solved.<sup id="cite_ref-preface_2-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-preface-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p></blockquote>
<p>The preface of the NET Bible presents the advantage of this feature in the following way: "The translators' notes make the original languages far more accessible, allowing you to look over the translator's shoulder at the very process of translation."<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
