This fresh new parallel resource enables readers to easily compare a quartet of modern translations that span the full range of approaches, from the most precise and literal to the most dynamic and reader friendly. The NKJV and ESV permit close word study, while the NLT and The Message present the text as its earliest audiences might have experienced it. The EEPB is especially noteworthy because it features the updated text of the NLT.

The four versions' complete texts are conveniently displayed on facing pages (two translations per page), with the same set of verses on each one. This arrangement makes it easy for readers to compare how different scholars rendered the ancient biblical texts into Modern English.

The Essential Evangelical Parallel Bible includes the preface or introduction of each translation. It clearly illustrates the translation philosophies and word choices made by diverse groups of evangelical scholars whose work is relied upon today by millions of believers.

Customer Reviews

NIV missing
Review by Mokeke Matomby | 28.04.2008

Essential Evangelical Parallel Bible is really great. It would be great if NIV is included. But it is still a great tool to have side by side four different versions.

Review by Barbara Forrest | 20.04.2008

It is real help in studying the Bible for preparing sermons and in training to be a Reader in the C of E to have the transaltions side by side on the same page
