Listener's Bible-Esv

Summary: Wonderful Audio Bible
Review: In my humble opinion, this is the best audio Bible on the market. Max McLean is a wonderful narrator, and to have this available in the ESV is a real blessing. Now, if only the quality of ESV print Bibles would improve."

Summary: Excellent reading of the ESV
Review: We are very fortunate to have an edition of the English Standard Version read by Max McLean. The ESV is arguably the finest modern translation, combining accuracy in translation and beautiful english--very rare among current offerings.

As to the reading itself, Max is more understated in his reading of the ESV than in other versions I have heard--and I appreciate it. I have a hard time listening to over-dramatized readings of the Bible. There is background music, but it is pleasant and stays well in the background; I don't find it distracting at all.

Overall I am delighted to have this audio Bible and recommend it to you without reservation.
