I haven't done this kind of post in quite a while. Truth to tell, I probably got out of the mood. I don't know if this post signals a resurgence in my interest in doing these or not. I do have a backlog of this kind of free ebooks that would be nice to post.

This freebie looks to be a solid, substantive resource. Thanks go to The Commission on Worship of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod and Concordia Publishing House for providing it.

It is only 35 pages long, but the material in it is tightly packed in. It is chock-full of information. Keep in mind that with it being produced by a denomination, it will likely take sectarian positions at points, and you will need to wade through some denominational language here and there.

If you would like what seems to be something like a "CliffNotes" for the below booklet, a Summary of Analysis of Comparative Study of Bible Translations is offered, also. Here is the direct link to it. I believe that it is a legal free download for the same reasons that I give for the booklet, in the "comments" section below.

Comments: I believe that this is a legal free download due to the fact that direct links to it are given on two product pages at Concordia Publishing House, without any caveats, restrictions, etc.: http://www.cph.org/p-36-esv-deluxe-r...a-edition.aspx and http://www.cph.org/p-35-esv-pew-bibles-case-of-24.aspx.
