The sturdy, hardcover Common English pew Bible in navy is ideal for repeated congregational worship with comfortable-to-read black-letter text, translation footnotes, and in-text subject headings.
The Common English Bible is a translation completed in 2011. One hundred and twenty biblical scholars from twenty-two faith traditions worked as translators. These women and men balanced rigorous accuracy in translation of the ancient texts with an equally passionate commitment to clarity of expression in contemporary English. The result is a clear, direct, and powerful English version of the scriptures for use in Bible study, devotional reading, and worship.
