| abstract | - The Orthodox Study Bible (OSB) is a translation and annotation of the Christian Bible published by Thomas Nelson. For the Old Testament, it uses the Septuagint, which predates the standardized Masoretic Text by one thousand years; and for the New Testament, it uses the Majority Text, which represents 94% of Greek manuscripts. The Old Testament was prepared under the auspices of the academic community of St. Athanasius Academy of Orthodox Theology, using clergy and lay scholars. Translated directly from the Septuagint, it was checked against the Hebrew Masoretic Text. The English style is that of the New King James Version (NKJV), which was used as a template. The New Testament is the NKJV. Both are accompanied by commentary from the Orthodox viewpoint. The overview committee included fourteen archbishops, metropolitans, and bishops from various Orthodox jurisdictions, as well as eight priests and seven lay scholars. The Old Testament edition includes a new translation of the Psalms by Donald Sheehan of Dartmouth College.
