The Apocrypha is placed between Old and New Testaments, a nearly four-hundred-year-old tradition originating with the 1534 German Luther Bible. This practice separates the Apocrypha from the 66-book Canon while allowing readers to benefit from its spiritual wisdom, exemplary piety, and historical insight.

Although it shouldn’t pluralize all the sentences it does, I like it a lot. It’s the ESV without all the politics. The only agenda here is Holy Scripture for use of the English-speaking Church worldwide and not American politics.
