About the ESV Bible
The English Standard Version (ESV) Bible is a new, essentially literal
Bible translation that combines word-for-word precision and accuracy
with literary excellence, beauty, and depth of meaning.
What makes the ESV Bible unique and special?
First and foremost, the ESV is special because the Bible itself is
like no other book. The words of the Bible are the very Words of God.
As Jesus said, “The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and
life” (John 6:63).
Second, the ESV is special because it is a
“word-for-word” translation. The Bible says every word was “breathed
out by God” (2 Timothy 3:16). For this reason, the ESV seeks to
translate the original Greek and Hebrew words with the greatest
possible accuracy and precision.
Third, the ESV is special because it carries
forward the great historic stream of Bible versions in English—with
literary excellence, beauty, and depth of meaning, in a fresh and
compelling way.
The ESV is unique and special. It’s the Bible to read and treasure
through all your life—a great choice for young and old, for daily
reading and personal study, for church and family, for teaching and
preaching, and for memorizing the words of life.
Who created the ESV Bible?
Not an easy question to answer!—because the ESV Bible builds on
the legacy created by hundreds of devout and godly scholars over the
last 500 years. With this legacy as the starting point, a world-class
team of Christian Bible scholars carefully compared the ESV text
against the best Greek and Hebrew manuscripts.
First published in fall of 2001, the ESV Bible
has been widely embraced by churches, ministries, and denominations
around the world—and by millions of individuals who believe and know,
as Jesus said, that “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every
word that comes from the mouth of God” (Matthew 4:4).
