VerseWise Bible | Revised Standard Version


The Revised Standard Version is, as its preface states, "an authorized revision of the American Standard Version, published in 1901, which was a revision of the King James Version, published in 1611." Its goal was to:

  • Maintain the beauty of the King James
  • Update the text to more modern English usage
  • Take advantage of modern scholarship and the increased number of Bible manuscripts available

The VerseWise Bible Revised Standard Version app (available for iPhone, iPod touch and the iPad) includes the option of having the deuterocanon off or on. When off, one sees the Protestant canon of 66 books. When on, one also sees additional books and text from the Septuagint, the Greek Old Testament most commonly used during the time of Christ and Apostles. This text should be of interest to all Christians, but especially Eastern Orthodox readers who regard the Septuagint as the Old Testament canon.
