Beloved by millions around the world, the English Standard Version (ESV) is this century's fastest-growing version of the Bible. Until recently the ESV has largely been used in Protestant circles, but now SPCK is proud to present a range of fully anglicized Catholic editions, which include apocryphal books such as Tobit, Judith and the Wisdom of Solomon. Created by a team of more than 100 leading scholars, the ESV-CE is a contemporary, readable and accurate translation, yet one that stands in the classic tradition that started with the King James Version of 1611 and stretches through to the Revised Standard Version of 1971. One of the ESV's distinctive aims is to capture the precise wording of the original texts by rendering each Hebrew or Greek word with an equivalent English word. The result is an excellent version for detailed Bible study, but one that also possesses a beauty, clarity and dignity of style that makes it superbly suitable for reading alone or for reading aloud during public worship.

    Excellent update from OUP edition

    This is an excellent update of an earlier version of the ESV with Apocrypha published by Oxford University Press. The Apocrypha has been updated in line with the relatively recent update of some of the deuterocanonical books that have made their way into the ESV Catholic Edition (also published by SPCK). This hardback edition is a beautifully typeset edition (by 2K Denmark) in double column, black letter, line-matched text on good quality Bible paper (a little bit of ghosting is present) with a single silver satin bookmark ribbon. If you are looking for cross-references, sadly these do not contain any so your only option will be Cambridge University Press' ESV with Apocrypha Diadem Edition (an upsized version of their classic Pitt Minion format). I have read these SPCK editions over the 2021 Christmas break and they are very readable editions (and the ESV-CE edition is more readable than the Augustine Institute and ATS ESV-CE editions). Now that the ESV+A and ESV-CE are both out, this will be my primary Bible translation alongside the RSV-2CE and RSV+A. As another reviewer has alluded to earlier, this is a boon to ecumenism and hopefully will be a step in the right direction if the Australian Catholic Bishops Conference decides on an ESV based lectionary in line with their English, Scottish and Welsh episcopal brethren.

    Reliable Bible

    It's nice to have a reliable translation with the Apocrypha. \\n\\nThe fact that this translation has released an edition with the Apocrypha, I believe, is a great step in right direction in both cumenism and scholarship.
