WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN
This edition could have been so much better. With the history of Oxford I was expecting so much more.
While the print is really dark and bold and readible and fairly large; the paper is way to thin. You can read the words on the next page.
Also, it looks like this edition has a sewn binding; however, when you look closer, you realize that the publishers used overcast stitching on the front and back of the text block while glueing the rest of the binding.
With all of those negatives, you may think that I would not reccomend this ESV, however, if you are looking for an ESV with apocrypha this is the only choice. I also am greatful for Crossway and Oxford giving us this edition.
Taking all things into account, along with the great price, you can't go wrong if you decide to get this edition. I just whish that Oxford went with a higher price point and gave us quality materials.
Be Encouraged:-)
