About the Author

SPCK ESV-CE Bibles (Author) Created by a team of over 100 leading scholars, this Anglicized Catholic edition of the ESV is an essentially literal translation of the Bible that seeks as far as possible to reproduce the precise wording of the original text and the personal style of each biblical writer. Following a distinct word-for-word translation method, the ESV Bible captures the precise wording of the original texts by rendering each Hebrew or Greek word with an equivalent English word. This result is a modern translation that stands in the classic tradition that starts with the King James Version of 1611 and stretches through to the Revised Standard Version of 1971. Skylar White (Illustrator) Skylar White lives in New York with her husband and her cat Alfie. She works primarily in watercolor and acryla-gouache on cold press paper, but also uses digital painting programs like Photoshop and Procreate. Other mediums like acrylic and ink, pens and colored pencils can find their way into the mix, too.
