Understandest thou what thou readest? Review by Henry Rev.
Want easier grasp of the Holy Scriptures ? At your family devotion have someone read a chapter from the EHV out loud. That's the way the original recipients learned what God had said to them. (And longer is not harder than the short sections often read. Longer gives you linkage of thoughts. That context expands your comprehension) (Posted on 2/3/2020)

Good Job! Review by Jordan
I have a lot of Bibles. Probably too many. NIV 1978, NIV 1984, NIVI 1996, TNIV 2005, NIV 2011, ESV 2001, KJV 1611, CSB 2017. Although I don’t think it will replace the NIV as my everyday reading, studying, memorizing, Sunday school Bible it is definitely a very scholarly work and one I consult often. Job well done to the WELS/ELS individuals who were involved in this. Thank you for your gift to our synods. (Posted on 1/26/2020)

Invigorating Review by Timothy
It is always invigorating to reread the Bible in a new translation. All the more so when it's accurate and readable. This year I've been using the CSB which I find very well done, but now I've received my long-awaited copy of the complete EHV and am overwhelmed by the beauty and excellence of the translation work! I find the footnotes and brief book introductions incredibly helpful, and the choice and frequency of headings superb. The print is very readable, reminding me of an NASB I had 40 years ago. The paper tolerates highlighting without significant bleed-through. Try reading the Book of Job, for example, or Proverbs and see how the read in a more accessible way than you've ever found them. I haven't been able to put it down since taking delivery of our church's shipment. (Posted on 7/15/2019)
