He emphasised that a couple of diversifications are being made to the ESV-CE to make it applicable for use in a UK context, together with spelling, punctuation and the Anglicisation of phrases and phrases where applicable.

"in a similar way son or daughter ability one thing in one context, however at the deepest stage of all – St Paul in Galatians or Romans, for example – it talks about being sons in the Son, and what God sees in Jesus Christ his Son. That's a very deep theology, about being a son within the Son, of filial adoption in Christ Jesus, that's a profoundly different and extremely deep theology."
He mentioned that there was controversy over the use of inclusive language in the new translation, and stated this had all the time been a consideration for the bishops and editorial committee. "we now have been immersed in this work for 18 months, and we haven't had time to interact in conversations with people who are studying the textual content extra superficially, who aren't analyzing what's there. The ESV-CE is reasonably suave [in its use of inclusive language], even though it's a pity they are within the footnotes."
