I loved the previous Quentel format and was not a fan of the announcement that it was being re-done with drop caps, no callers to the cross references, and a smaller font. For an ESV with Apocrypha, however, this has the largest font available on the market, so I eagerly bought it. I have used it fairly consistently for the Daily Office since it arrived in early June, and I take back all of the negative thoughts and concerns I had about it.
It turns out I love the drop caps, and the removal of the callers actually makes it much more readable. If I am honest, the cross references supplied by Crossway are hit and miss anyway, but it is nice to have them still. The font is slightly smaller, but much bolder and I think more readable than before. The text layout by Schuyler and 2K Denmark, especially in poetic renderings, remains the absolute best for the ESV in my opinion… much better than anything I’ve seen from Crossway.
The only negatives to mention are the paper and the margins. The paper is actually very good, very high quality, something you can only find now in premium Bibles printed by Royal Jongbloed. That said, for such a large Bible the paper does feel too thin. The tradeoff is a very manageable book block. The margins are noticeably smaller than the previous Quentel, and some of its competitors such as the Allan NC1 and NC2. This is not a Bible for marginalia, but for reading. I suspect Schuyler will produce a wide margin companion to this someday… hopefully with a paper weight, e.g. 36 gsm, that still makes it manageable for carry and everyday use, unlike the wide margins they have produced to date.
All in all, I highly recommend this edition. For an ESV with Apocrypha I do not believe there is anything better available. Even apart from the Apocrypha, it is a magnificently well designed ESV that is a pleasure to read.

I’ve been waiting for this complete Bible for some time in ESV; I’ve been using the Schuyler RSV with Apocrypha (I’m Roman Catholic). When the Cambridge Diadem came out in ESV with Apocrypha I snapped it up, and while beautifully made, I find the center references distracting and irritating compared with the Schuyler method of placing them at the bottom of the pages. The Milo font, now in 10 instead of 11 as on my NASB, is a joy for a guy like me who reads the Bible like any other book; the fluidity of its legibility is perfect to me. Vintage fonts may be all decorative, etc., but this font fits the ESV like a glove. My one small complaint is that some of the maps disappear into the gutter spreading across two pages, but then I usually use a Bible atlas anyway. This is now my daily reader and I don’t have to use a separate ESV Apocrypha volume. I’m still waiting to purchase a Schuyler KJV with Apocrypha. There is still no real comparison between our big-box Bible makers like Nelson and Zondervan in terms of design and quality, and these Schuylers. Worth every penny these cost!
