ESV Classic Reference Bible, Hardcover Retail Price: $26.99 Our Price: $17.99 Save: 9.00 (33.35%) Availability: In Stock        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 committee 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. This Classic Reference Edition Features: Center-Column Cross References (more than 76,000 entries) ESV Concordance (more than 14,500 references) Book Introductions Words of Christ in red Full Color Maps - including Jesus' Life and Ministry.
