This attractive hardback edition features stunning cover artwork and is fully sewn for flexibility and strength. This is the advent of a new family of Bibles, available first in the ESV translation.

'Apocrypha' means 'hidden things', and describes books which were not accepted into the Hebrew Canon, but which survive in the Greek Scriptures. They were written in the period between the Old and New Testaments. Though the Apocrypha were often included in the Bible, their inclusion declined in the seventeenth century as they were seen to be deuterocanonical. The Apocrypha still hold value for study and spiritual enrichment. This edition includes the same eighteen books as the RSV Apocrypha, including Tobit, 1-4 Maccabees, Wisdom of Solomon, Sirach, Judith, Baruch, Psalm 151, and additions to Esther and Daniel. Like the ESV Bible, the translation of these books strives for accuracy, providing an essentially literal word-for-word approach to the original texts. This attractive edition will be valuable for exploring these texts and enriching understanding of the history and thought of the Jewish people during the centuries leading up to the birth of Christ.

The NRSV Large-Print Text Edition offers the Bible reader - whether in Church, school or home settings - the comfort of large, bold print that is beautifully clear and easy to read. It uses the Anglicised NRSV text which adopts British usage for spelling, punctuation, phrasing and grammar, and is available in a choice of binding styles and editions - either with, or without the Apocrypha. This Bible contains the Old and New Testaments, and comes in a sturdy hardback binding.
