Summary:
"The
English
Standard
Version
Bible
captures as far as possible the precise wording of the original biblical text and the personal style of each
Bible
writer, while taking into account differences of grammar, syntax, and idiom between current literary
English
and the original languages. The ESV thus provides an accurate rendering of the original texts that is in readable, high quality
English
prose and poetry. This
Bible
has been growing in popularity among students in biblical studies, mainline Christian scholars and clergy, and Evangelical Christians of all denominations. Along with that growth comes the need for the books of the
Apocrypha
to be included in ESV Bibles, both for denominations that use those books in liturgical readings and for students who need them for historical purposes. More Evangelicals are also beginning to be interested in the
Apocrypha
, even though they don't consider it God's Word. The
English
Standard
Version
Bible
with the
Apocrypha
, for which the
Apocrypha
has been commissioned by Oxford University Press, employs the same methods and guidelines used by the original translators of the ESV, to produce for the first time an ESV
Apocrypha
. This will be the only ESV with
Apocrypha
available anywhere, and it includes all of the books and parts of books in the Protestant
Apocrypha
, the Catholic
Old
Testament, and the
Old
Testament as used in Orthodox Christian churches. It includes a full-color map section, a table of weights and measures used in the
Bible
, and many other attractive features. The
English
Standard
Version
Bible
with
Apocrypha
is certain to become the preferred
Bible
in more conservative divinity schools and seminaries, where the
Apocrypha
is studied from an academic perspective. And it answers the need of conservative Christians in general for a more literal
version
of these books"--Provided by publisher.
