ABOUT THE EOB

The EOB New Testament … is based on the official ecclesiastical text published in 1904 by the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople (again documenting all significant variants to the Critical Text, Majority Text and Textus Receptus). It also provides extensive footnotes. The Patriarchal text was selected on Mount Athos from among a large number of reliable ecclesiastical manuscripts and appears to be identical or similar to Minuscule 1495 (KR subgroup). The main purpose of the EOB is to provide an accurate and easy-to-read English text of the Holy Scriptures that is suitable for use by Orthodox Christian communities and individuals, while providing an outstanding text for scholars.

Note that this edition does not include the appendices found in other editions of the EOB.

    Portable and beautiful

    Published by P. I. on Oct 25th 2024

    The book is beautiful. Pages are nice and not too thin. Illustrations are line drawings of traditional iconography. Print size is big enough to read. The text version is traditional but clear and easy to read. The leather is nice. I love the zipper. Suggestions for improvement: the cover should be a little larger so it's easier to zip around pages. Ribbons are awkward and long and you have to position them wrapped up around pages in order to zip. I would love to have Psalms included, but that's a minor critique. The footnote numbers are hard to read within the text, and then finding the notes at the bottom too - a bit hard because font size on notes is pretty small. Overall this is a gem.

    Best NT I’ve ever seen

    Published by Joseph on Oct 17th 2024

    I love this NT. Very convenient nice zipper and case and I just love how thin a portable it is. The pages are thin pages like a Bible should be and the type is very beautiful. I love just looking at it when I’m not reading it.

    The Best New Testament Translation I’ve Ever Owned

    Published by Thomas Allen on Sep 15th 2024

    As someone who owns numerous Bibles (to the point where even my wife is getting tired of them!), I've studied many translations over the years, and the New Testament - EOB Portable stands out as the best. Its clarity, faithfulness to the original texts, and readability make it a joy to use for both study and daily reading. The EOB translation captures the essence of the New Testament in a way that feels both scholarly and deeply spiritual. If you're looking for a reliable, portable, and accurate New Testament, this is the one to get.

    Wonderful Bible!

    Published by JB on Aug 30th 2024

    This is a wonderful Bible.. The cover is excellent. The pages and clarity of the text are exceptional even though the font is smaller it’s very easy to read. I would love to have a non-zipper version however the zipper is nicely done and secures the book for putting into a backpack.

    New Testament EOB portable

    Published by Julianna Wagenvoord on Aug 14th 2024

    Very nice size. I do wish the footnote numbers were just a bit easier to see but that is my only thing. I have been able to add a small prayer book and it works so well. Also wish we had a small Psalms to carry around
