The Names of God Bible is a Sacred Name Bible which "restores the transliterations of ancient names — such as Yahweh, El Shadday, El Elyon, and Adonay — to help the reader better understand the rich meaning of God’s names that are found in the original Hebrew and Aramaic text". The print edition of The Names of God Bible has divine names printed in brown and includes a commentary. It was edited by Ann Spangler and published by Baker Publishing Group. The text is also available online at BibleGateway.com. In a review published online, this version has been praised for its "attention to detail", but it is noted that the translation only presents "the most significant names and titles of God" in their original forms and therefore some 'names of God' are not treated in the same way: for example, “Mighty One” (Avir) which appears in and and a total of 23 times (most referring to God) in the Old Testament is not highlighted.
