There must always be a question whether or not another English translation of the Bible is strictly necessary, and whether it is likely to take over from other popular modern translations such as the Revised Standard Version, the New International Version or the Good News Bible.

There are, however, some good reasons why this particular version of the Bible (ESV) could yet become a favoured study Bible, not only for the preacher but for the Christian who wants to dig deep . . . and, yes, to memorise Scripture.
