The English Standard Version Bible was first published in 2001 by Crossway. Its goal was to be “as literal as possible while maintaining clarity of expression and literary excellence.” To be true and clear. This meant avoiding interpretive opinions and contemporary cultural influences. Instead, they captured the nuances of the Arabic, Hebrew, and Greek texts. The ESV proudly claims to be the best modern English translation.
