It is available in hundreds of print editions and free online via mobile app (iOS and Android) and at ESV.org. Since its publication in 2001, the ESV has gained wide acceptance and is used by church leaders, numerous denominations and organizations, and millions of individuals around the world. Crossway offers the ESV Bible for free online and via mobile apps, with tens of millions of users from nearly every country. The ESV Study Bible, with twenty thousand notes and two million words in over 2,700 pages, became a bestselling Bible and was the first Bible to be named the "Christian Book of the Year" by the Evangelical Christian Publishers Association. The ESV Bible and ESV Study Bible notes have been translated into more than 50 languages. Crossway has distributed hundreds of thousands of ESV Bibles and books to pastors, teachers, students, missionaries, and ministry leaders across the globe, equipping them to learn and share God's Word. 10502854 253036 12663819 Book Publishing Our book department promotes and publishes the greatest news in the world through the medium of printed and digital books.
