tfurrows wrote [0] about picking up a copy of the English Standard | |
Version (ESV) Bible, a modern language translation by Crossway. It | |
just so happens that the ESV is my personal favorite translation | |
for casual bible reading. I like it so much, in fact, that | |
I sought out permission from Crossway to post the full contents of | |
the ESV on gopher.black. You can find it over here [1]! | |

I love the New American Standard Version (NASV) as well, as it's | |
the one used in the Catholic mass in the US and it's a very good | |
literal translation. For study I bounce around between versions, | |
especially since my Greek and Hebrew aren't particularly strong | |
language skills. I need to review alternate translations to find | |
new ways at the text. | |
Anyway, tfurrows, I hope you enjoy the ESV. There's a fantastic | |
set of commentaries that goes with it which you can find online | |
for free. Or, if you're just reading through for fun, you are | |
welcome to use gopher! |
