Their purpose is to demonstrate the connection between the words God has spoken to us in the Bible and the words we speak back to him in prayer. Offset and printed in a smaller font to make sure we take them secondary to God’s words these prayers are from a variety of people including preachers, theologians, and authors from throughout history. The key feature of the ESV Prayer Bible is the over 400 prayers added into the text near a relevant Biblical passage. Even though both are offset the difference in font and slight differences in formatting mean most people will never mistake added prayers for Biblical text. I think they have done a good job of making the prayers easy to tell apart from the Biblical text quotes. The included footnotes are standard ESV translation notes.Ĭhapter numbers are 2 lines high and very easy to spot. The page numbers are at the center of the top of the page and guide verses are included in the upper outside corners. Poetry is set in stanzas and quotes are indented. I think the font style is Lexicon for the text and Gotham for the prayers. The font size for the biblical text is 9.25 while the font for the included prayers is a 7.25. There is a small amount of show-through but it never drew my attention while using it except in a few places with a lot of white space on the side I was using and a lot of text on the back. The ink is a consistent medium darkness throughout. It is a black letter, single column, paragraph edition. This Bible is also available in a brown TruTone cover. There is one attached navy ribbon marker. It has nice, white paper that we are guessing to be in the low to mid 30s GSM. The hardcover edition measures 8 3/4″ x 5 1/2″ x 1 3/4″ and weighs almost 2 pounds, 4 ounces. There are also a couple of pages of thick white blank paper in both the front and back. The page edges are white but they did carry the gold into the Bible and give you thick gold endpapers. It has a navy cover with gold lettering and a sewn binding. I’m reviewing the hardcover cloth over board edition. This Bible is available for pre-order at (includes some affiliate links) I was not required to give a positive review, only an honest one.
