It is a paraphrase of the original languages of the Bible. Peterson states that reason the The Message was written was:

	“ While I was teaching a class on [[Galatians\|Book of Galatians]], I began to realize that the adults in my class weren't feeling the vitality and directness that I sensed as I read and studied the [[New Testament]] in its original Greek. Writing straight from the original text, I began to attempt to bring into English the rhythms and idioms of the original language. I knew that the early readers of the New Testament were captured and engaged by these writings and I wanted my congregation to be impacted in the same way. I hoped to bring the New Testament to life for two different types of people: those who hadn't 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.' ”		“ While I was teaching a class on [[Galatians\|Book of Galatians]], I began to realize that the adults in my class weren't feeling the vitality and directness that I sensed as I read and studied the [[New Testament]] in its original Greek.

	According to the Introduction to the New Testament of the The Message, it was written in a “contemporary idiom keeps the language of the Message (Bible) current and fresh and understandable”. Peterson notes that in the course of the project, he realized that this was exactly what he had been doing in his thirty-five years as a pastor, “always looking for an English way to make the biblical text relevant to the conditions of the people.”		According to the Introduction to the New Testament of the The Message, it was written in a “contemporary idiom keeps the language of the Message (Bible) current and fresh and understandable”.
