About this app
The Easy To Read Bible (ERV) is clear and easy to understand, especially for those who have limited experience with English including people learning the English for the first time.The Easy-to-Read Version of the Bible, published in 1989 by the World Bible Translation Center—founded in 1973 in Arlington, Texas—was initially prepared to meet the special needs of the deaf and was first published by Baker Book House as The English Version for the Deaf. The first-draft work on The English Version for the Deaf was done by WBTC’s in-house translators who are Greek and Hebrew scholars and deaf-language consultants. The Easy-to-Read Version has also recently undergone a major revision to better meet the needs of its target audience and evangelistic outreach (via ministries to prisons, the homeless) as well as those with limited English. The revised text is also more suitable for oral reading, since many who understand spoken English are not literate.
