Crossway has announced the first of two new ESV editions that are coming out early next year: the Single Column Reference Bible.
This Bible features a single column of text, over 80,000 cross-references on the inside margins, and verse-by-verse layout instead of paragraphs. In other words, each verse begins on a new line. It incorporates the minor textual updates from the ESV Translation Oversight Committee meeting in 2005. Crossway designed this Bible especially for pastors and others who want to find a verse quickly.
It comes in four editions to start: Hardcover, TruTone, Genuine Leather, and Premium Calfskin Leather, ranging in price from $34.99 to $195.
Below is what a page looks like, or download a sample (pdf) of several pages in Matthew.
[...] You can see sample pages of the new layout and read more from Crossway for yourself here. [...]

[...] “The ESV Wide Margin Reference Bible is coming this spring. It looks very similar to the Classic Reference Bible (two columns of text, center-column cross-references) and has 1.25-inch margins.
