'The new British version of the NRSVue reflects the latest scholarship while being sensitive to cultural changes on issues such as gender, race and disability. It also echoes a more distinctly English tradition which will be welcome to many who are the cultural descendants of those who still treasure the King James Version.'
- Angela Tilby, Canon Emeritus of Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford
