Since its first publication in the United Kingdom in 1990, the New Revised Standard Version of the Bible has established itself as one of the finest modern translations of the biblical text ever produced. Oxford University Press is proud to announce the publication of a new Anglicized edition of the highly-respected text. The work of Anglicization has been undertaken in full co-operation with the leading American academics responsible for the original work of translation. By this means, the foundational scholarship which underpins the NRSV has been safeguarded, but enhanced for readers in the UK, and other countries where British usage is preferred. The changes made to the text do not impair the translation, but rather ensure that the meaning is immediately clear for the reader. * British spelling used throughout * Anglicized phrasing * Accurate, scholarly, and readable * Expanded edition of the Apocrypha * Fresh new page design
