A Revised Standard Version of The Holy Bible with easy-to-read type and accessible, updated language. This edition is a superb synthesis of modern language and lyric force, retaining the magnificent poetry of the King James Version while updating obscure words and outdated phrasing with clear, contemporary usages. In addition to the complete Old and New Testaments, this text contains a summary of the books of the Bible, a history of several modern translations, an outline of New Testament history as well as useful cross-references, and an extensive series of notes regarding translation and original sources.
