Abstract
The paper deals with the problem of the specific linguistic and linguocultural features characterizing the Bible translations, and their relation to the norms of the standard language. The situation of the functioning of the translations of Holy Writ in Russian tradition (i.e. the Elizabeth Bible, the Synodal Translation and the Modern Russian Translation) is analyzed in connection with the said problem.
