The Bible has a blog

It seems that everybody is blogging these days–so it should come as no surprise that the Bible is the subject of a blog as well! The publishers of the English Standard Version (ESV) Bible have set up the ESV Blog to offer news and commentary on the ESV and the process of Bible translation in general.

The blog’s been up and running for almost a year now, so there’s plenty of material to read there. You might start with this recent post on the trials of hand-copying Greek Bible texts (hey, that’s the way ancient scribes did it!), or this older piece about defining “archaic” and “obsolete” language (who hasn’t been tripped up at some point by an obscure vocabulary word in their Bible?) All in all, it looks like a great blog to add to your bookmarks or feed reader.
