HOW THIS BIBLE

This Christmas you can own Bible so

derstanding of Gods Word: the Revised
STANDARD Tersion. Here is why this Bible
is such wonderful gift.
In the 344 years since the King James
translation, new discoveries Of ancient
manuscripts have shed added light on
the Scriptures. Because the RSVB is
based on such manuscripts-some older
than any previously known-it is. in a
sense, our oidest Bible.
Also, hundreds ofwords have changed
In meaning through the ages. In the
RSVB direct, understandable language
replaces confusing expressions, yet still
preserves the Scriptures 'timeless beauty.
