Synopsis
The New Revised Standard Version is the most modern, accurate, and accessible Bible translation available today, and has been accepted by almost all major US denominations. Prepared by a multidenominational committee of scholars who based their revision on the original Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic texts, the NRSV is fast becoming the new standard for both public and private devotion in churches and homes across America. As well, the NRSV is the most advanced translation in its sensitivity to inclusive language. The translation also includes the most complete collection of Apocryphal/Deuterocanonical books.
Annotation
