Key Passage Notes
Isaiah 7:14 is not directly relevant to an Acts study guide, and any quotation would reflect the underlying Bible translation used, presumably the ESV, which renders the term as 'virgin.'
John 1:1 is not a focus of an Acts study guide, but if quoted, the ESV rendering 'the Word was God' would be expected, preserving the full deity of Christ.
Age Suitability
This entry appears to be a Bible study guide from Crossway's 'Knowing the Bible' series rather than a Bible translation, making most translation-evaluation metrics inapplicable. Evaluators should note that the scores above are approximate and reflect the likely use of the ESV as the underlying text, combined with the guide's own commentary framework.
