This ESV single issue of Mark's Gospel is suitable for both personal or group study, or for giving away to those who are thinking about the Christian faith, or wanting to learn more about Jesus.
Retaining the literary beauty much-loved in classic Bible translations, the English Standard Version is an accurate yet readable word for word Bible translation.

Ordered 35 copies of Mark’s Gospel to be delivered to Singapore. Service exceeded expectations with the Declaration Of the Good News arriving in time for the start of our Bible Study group a week later. PTL
This ESV translation is well presented and easy to read. A slightly larger font size would make it more suitable for those readers who poor reading vision. Perhaps an additional large font version would be helpful. This Mark's Gospel edition is also very useful for a give away during door to door evangelism work. As is it a good accompaniment to all versions of the Christianity Explored courses.
I was asked to review two versions of Mark's gospel, The New International Version and the ESV. The intention is that we select a version for our group of Anglican Churches and have them available for parishioners.
I am disappointed that as far as I can see the English Standard Version uses American Spelling while the NIV uses English spelling.
I am also disappointed that the first letter of pronouns referring to Our Lord or to God are not capitalised. (I note that the NIV does not capilise them either.)
An example taken from the first page is:
"I have baptized you with water, he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit".
I also agree with Lindsay Dew with regard to the font size.
These Gospels are a good size to give to people who have an interest in finding out about the Life of the Lord Jesus's and Salvation, if they don't have a Bible and need advice on where to start reading. The size makes them easy to keep in a handbag or coat pocket.
The format, accuracy of translation, size and 'portability' makes this really easy to give away as a follow-up to conversations.
Great little book. Especially good for using with Christianity explored
I bought these Gospels to give to my congregations to help them get into Mark in this Year B of the lectionary. The print size could have been bigger - with plenty of space either side of the paragraphs there would have been room to enlarge the font.
Great book for evangelistic use. Good price and fast service.
Attractive modern presentation. Readable typeface and size. Reasonable quality. Fabulous content!!
