Download revised standard version of the bible

Open your Bible Gateway app and tap the menu icon in the top left. From there you can navigate to the Bible view. From the Bible text view, you can select the translation you want using the box on the top right. In the example above, it says NRSV because that translation has already been selected. The New Revised Standard Version of the Bible NRSV was published in and has received the widest acclaim and broadest support from academics and church leaders of any modern English translation.

Equally important, it sets a new standard for the 21st Century. The NRSV stands out among the many translations because it is 'as literal as possible' in adhering to the ancient texts and only 'as free as necessary' to make the meaning clear in graceful, understandable English.

It draws on newly available sources that increase our understanding of many previously obscure biblical passages. These sources include new-found manuscripts, the Dead Sea Scrolls, other texts, inscriptions, and archaeological finds from the ancient Near East, and new understandings of Greek and Hebrew grammar.

No changes are made to the text. All quotations must be accurate to the text, including all appropriate punctuation, capitalization, etc. May God Bless them for their helpfulness too. I love the fact that you have different options for highlighting, I use one color for passages I want to memorize, another color for those I want to study further for example.

It sometimes takes a little patience to get exactly the passage that you want to highlight as others have noted. But this is a small issue relative to the value of the app.

I especially like the ability to bookmark and make my personal notes or references. My regular study Bible is not only all marked up but it's full of scraps of paper to keep my notes with the passage of scripture. As a senior citizen I'm not quite ready to use this as a substitute for my regular Bible, but the more I use it the more I appreciate it.

I have used this app for several years. I have even purchased Bible versions and have been extremely satisfied with the ability to open the app quickly and start my study or quickly find verses to read. But this new update is awful with all the advertisements at startup. I would even be willing to make a purchase or a subscription, anything if it meant I could get away from all these advertisements. Hello, You can find the option to remove ads within the app menu. If you have any questions please feel free to ask.

Thank you, - Kyle app support.
