Holy Bible

Armenian Church Edition

New Revised Standard Version

Old & New Testaments

This beautifully-produced (2009) edition allows our faithful to encounter the wisdom of the Bible as contained in all the Scriptural books acknowledged as authoritative in the Armenian Church tradition.

Most English-language Bibles present the books authorized by Protestant denominations, leaving out numerous ancient writings deemed apocryphal" or "deutero-canonical". However these same writings - considered important scriptures in the ancient Christian movement - were embraced by the Armenian Church and used in our writings on theology liturgy and history.

"I urge our faithful to make this new publication a part of every Armenian home. Our younger generation - and those embarking on college marriage child-rearing or other life milestones - will especially benefit from this Bible which allows readers to 'rediscover' a vital part of our religious heritage".

Archbishop Khajag Barsamian
