Orthodox Study Bible (Eastern Orthodox)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Orthodox Study Bible is a translation and annotation of the Christian Bible currently in production by clergy and laity within the Orthodox Church. The text of the New Testament & Psalms translation is currently the New King James Version accompanied by Orthodox viewpoint commentary. The Old Testament is being directly translated from the Septuagint[1] using the New King James Version as the template, and will be accompanied by Orthodox viewpoint commentary.
The first version, containing the Psalms and the New Testament, was published in 1993 by Thomas Nelson. It is currently being published by Conciliar Press.
The Old Testament has experienced some production delays and is expected by Pascha (Easter) 2007.
The Orthodox Study Bible Old Testament and New Testament has now been delayed until February of 2008.
