Truly An Ecumenical Bible 02 July, 2008 As an Orthodox Christian, I find this Bible translation, or better I should say, "Translations" in that it provides variants in the text and added words to help understand the context and the Christian interpretation of both the OT and NT. The introductions are great, yet, simple and to the point. I find it interesting just how agreeable the introductions are to Orthodox doctrine as well.
Even the notes in the OT, for the most part are in line with Orthodoxy.
What makes it a great ecumenical Bible, is that it offers other possible translations that come from different traditions within Christianity, so that as an Orthodox Christian I can read what my tradition believes the Scriptures to be saying. But it also gives all Christians a unity of faith by doing this.
The only draw back for me is that not all the books of the LXX are in the OT of this Bible, but that's fine, I can read those in the Orthodox Study Bible.
But for a good flow in reading and understanding, I highly recommend this Bible for all believers.
"By this shall all [men] know that you are My disciples, if you love one another [if you keep on showing love among yourselves]." - John 13:35
"I in them and You in Me, in order that they may become one and perfectly united, that the world may know and [definitely] recognize that You sent Me and that You have loved hem [even] as You have loved Me." - John 17:23
Christ has Risen!

Great For Serious Bible Students! 27 June, 2008 It would be impossible to get the entirety of the Greek and Hebrew language within the English text because the original languages are so expansive. This however is accurate and lends more insight into the original rendered meaning. It is a joy to have and to really study God's word with.
I am disappointed in the cover material. It was advertised as "leather bound". Indeed is not. That needs to be corrected, and compensation should be applied to those of us who ordered the genuine leather.
