Publisher's Synopsis
The new English Standard Version translation is founded on
the belief that the
words of the Bible are the very words
of God. Setting itself apart from other translations by
sacrificing neither accuracy nor
readability, the ESV is an "essentially literal" translation
that
seeks to duplicate the original texts
while taking into account the differences between modern
English and the original languages.
Relying on the work of more than 50 Bible scholars, as well
as the input of a 60-member,
multi-denominational Advisory Council, the translations
comittee
chaired by J.I. Packer realized its
goals of word-for-word precision and accuracy, literary
excellence and readability, and depth
of meaning. Written in language beautiful enough to be
used for public reading, clear enough
for preaching and devotions, and trustworthy enough for
academic study, the ESV sets a new
standard--and is truly a Bible for all people.
The translation is outstanding. The ESV achieves a new
standard in accurate Bible translations for our
day. —R. C. Sproul, Chairman, Ligonier
Ministries
The ESV will be warmly received and universally
respected by all those who love the Bible and demand
faithful and accurate transalaton. -Dr. R. Albert Mohler,
Jr., President, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
...the ESV makes an important contribution of
trueness to the text and readability. -Dr. Joseph M.
Stowell, President, Moody Bible Institute
Easy to read, yet utterly accurate. -Joni Eareckson
Tada, Founder and President, Joni and Friends

Review By: Matt
This is an excellent Bible
translation. The words do
not stray from the meaning of
Gods Holy Word and the cd rom
that comes with the bible is
priceless. Highly recomended
for the avid reader of
scriptures and to the new-
comer. Very easy to
understand!!
