Whilst the text of the Bible remains unchanged from that published by The British and Foreign Bible Society in 1954, much care has been taken with this edition to set that text as clearly as possible on the page. The layout is uncluttered and this, together with the inclusion of illustrations created originally by Horace Knowles for the Revised Standard version in 1952, helps to bring greater immediacy to this 400-year-old translation.{{cite book}}: CS1 maint: others (link)
