Product Information

The New Revised Standard Version is the standard translation used by mainline Protestant churches, Orthodox churches, and by many Catholics. The NRSV debuted in 1989 and is owned by the National Council of Churches, which is the leading force for ecumenical cooperation among Christians in the United States representing thirty-five denominations with forty-five million members in more than 100,000 churches across the country. They have chosen HarperCollins to be the exclusive licensor of the translation for the world (nonexclusively in the UK). The New Revised Standard Version is recognized in scholarly circles as the most accurate translation into English of the original Hebrew and Greek texts. In the tradition of its predecessors, the King James Version and the Revised Standard Version, the NRSV was designed to be the standard version for English-speaking people across all denominations, which in many ways it has become. None of the new, more sectarian translations have approached its standards of elegance and accuracy. This unique one-column setting allows people to read the Bible as work of literature. Each book is introduced with an original wood-cut. Overall, this special easy-to-read setting makes the Bible a wonderful reading experience. It also includes a concordance index to help people find key passages. This special Catholic edition includes all 23 books of the Catholic canon, a presentation page, and a ribbon.

I read it Well made, good size font, proper translation
The book itself is high quality binding and stuff. The text is easily seen to be read. After reading the King James my mother brought me, at the end it said that I hadn't read the entirity of the King James version because of some sort of disagreement that had those books taken out. This apocrypha should not be confused with heretical books such as the gnostic gospels and or the supposed lost books of eden. These books are in fact the bible. From what I've read so far, these books would have just thrown off the symmetry of the protestan cannon. I have not seen anything contradictory. They just seem to restate and reinforce the whole message of the bible in practical applications. I have enjoyed the read so far. I do not care for the New International version at all. I always though the King James version was all I'd ever like. I joined a Church that uses the New American Standard Life Application Study Bible. I enjoy that version as a study bible although it is not my favorite translation as a reading bible without the study guide. I attended a bible study that used the cannon version of the New Revised standard version. Cannon is the 66 books in the regular protestant bible. I enjoyed the New Revised Standard Version as a stand alone readable translation. This is the first apocrypha that I have owned that I've actually read. This translation is joy to read. I highly reccomend it. Readable font, durable pretty binding and a true yet understandable translation with notations where they may be any potential conflicting translations. The Apocrypha is not my bible study but it is part of my current pleasure reading. I use my church's translation in church and study and this one for reading. This bible would make a great gift because its pretty and invites you to read it. Most christians don't do the Apocrypha would likely enjoy just having it in their library even if they don;t read it.Read full review
