The History of the English Standard Version
/The following is an excerpt from Crossway (www.crossway.org) articles.
The Most Valuable Thing That This World Affords
Over twenty years ago, the idea was born for a new translation of the Bible. After many conversations and much prayer, fourteen members of the ESV Translation Oversight Committee began work on the English Standard Version—an essentially literal translation standing in the classic mainstream of English Bible translations over the past half-millennium. In the preface to the ESV, the Translation Oversight Committee writes:
In that [classic] stream, faithfulness to the text and vigorous pursuit of precision were combined with simplicity, beauty, and dignity of expression. Our goal has been to carry forward this legacy for this generation and generations to come.
In this short documentary, members of the ESV Translation Oversight Committee and Crossway’s leadership team reflect on the history of the English Standard Version—with deep reverence, gratitude, and ongoing wonder at what God has done and continues to do through the ESV.
Soli Deo Gloria!—To God alone be the glory!

The next Ladies’ Book Club meeting will be held on Saturday, September 22 at 1:00 p.m. At the home of the Szucs family.
Our book for discussion will be The Morrow of Modern Divinity. “The Marrow of Modern Divinity was a scandal when it was first presented to the reading public in the mid-17th century. In this book, Edward Fisher wrote under the pseudonym "E.F." boldly proclaiming the Calvinistic doctrines of grace and the free offer of the gospel. Most accented of the themes is his treatment of unconditional election–over and against the throes of legalism and antinomianism of his day. Take up this book and find out just how liberating the doctrines of grace can be!”
To RSVP for the Ladies’ Book Club please send an E-mail to the church office (urcanaheim@aol.com).
