Cambridge has announced the upcoming release of an NRSV Compact Bible.

The publishing news we received states:

The NRSV Compact Text Edition is elegantly designed, with small but readable type. The Bibles are a comfortable size to carry and small enough to fit in a pocket or bag.

The attractive imitation leather and white and silver gift editions have decorative foil edges and ribbon markers, and they include presentation pages, making them suitable for marking special occasions such as confirmations and other ceremonies.

The more basic hardbacks offer the readable NRSV at an affordable price for potential classroom or group use.

They use the NRSV Anglicized Edition and have British spelling and punctuation.

The Bibles will feature an 8 point Bibles Sans Font and the pages will measure 145 x 109mm(approx 5 3/4″ x 4 1/4″ for those more used to American Standard).

The NRSV Compact Bible is scheduled to begin shipping October 18th, 2018.
