Overview

This publication presents a side-by-side comparison of the Chinese "Union Version 2010 (Union Version Revised Edition)" and the English "English Standard Version" (ESV) of the Holy Bible.

The Chinese text is based on the revised "Union Version", which has been updated by the Hong Kong Bible Society to reflect the latest archaeological discoveries and research on the Bible, as well as changes in Chinese wording and syntax over the past century. The revision principles aim to make minimal changes, maintain the original style of the Union Version, remain faithful to the original text, and conform to modern Chinese usage and expression.

The English text is taken from the popular English Standard Version, which has gained widespread acceptance in recent years for its accuracy, readability, and faithfulness to the original languages.

The parallel presentation of the Chinese and English texts allows readers to appreciate the nuances and differences between these two major Bible translations, while also highlighting the common themes and messages that transcend linguistic and cultural boundaries. The inclusion of detailed footnotes, introductions, and supplementary materials further enhances the reader's understanding and engagement with the Scriptures.

Whether you are a student of comparative religion, a language enthusiast, or simply a seeker of spiritual wisdom, this Chinese-English Bible comparison publication offers a unique and enlightening perspective on the timeless Word of God.
