CEB Common English Bible - Bible with Apocrypha

CEB Common English Bible - Bible with Apocrypha by Common English Bible,. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780819229281.

"The Common English Bible is not a revision or update of an existing translation, but a bold new translation designed to meet the needs of Christians as they work to build a strong and meaningful relationship with God through Jesus Christ. Designed to be accessible to a broad range of people, the Common English Bible is written at a comfortable level for over half of all English readers. As the translators did their work, reading specialists working with seventy-seven reading groups from more than a dozen denominations review the texts to ensure a smooth and natural reading experience. Easy readability can enhance church worship and participation, and personal Bible study. The Common English Bible is committed to the whole church of Jesus Christ. To achieve this, the CEB represents the work of a diverse team with broad scholarship, including the work of over one hundred and twenty scholars―men and women from twenty-four faith traditions in American, African, Asian, European and Latino communities. As a result, the English translation of ancient words has an uncommon relevance for a broad audience of Bible readers―from children to scholars. "
