The NRSV has received the widest acclaim and broadest support from academics and church leaders of any modern English translation.Rooted in the past, but right for today, the NRSV continues the tradition of William Tyndale, the King James Version, the American Standard Version, and the Revised Standard Version. 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.

Latest reviews of NRSV Bible app for iPhone and iPad

A waste of time and money!
This bible has no reasonable way of going to book, chapter, verse. This is more of a puzzle than a bible.
Boo!
Not worth the money. Computerized voice and no text. Dont spend your money here. Very disappointed.
This is an audio book
This is an AUDIO book. No text. Just a list of downloadable Bible chapters, no menus. The audio works fine, but not what I was looking for.
Horrible!
Navigation is horrendous. I cant believe I lost a dollar on this app. Stay away!
Nice Try
I want to listen to something, however, this robotic voice just puts me off. Not worth it.
