The ESV Single Column Legacy Bible is designed to reflect the beauty of God’s Word. The layout of the text and margins are based on the Renaissance ideal of a perfect page—what Renaissance thinkers considered perfect proportions. It features wide margins with plenty of white space, line-matched text to minimize show-through from page to page, and section headings in the margins to reduce visual clutter. The result is a clean, simple reading experience that allows the Scriptures to speak for themselves.
