I emailed Dr. Price the statement made by Riplinger, and he told me himself that he assisted with the Holman Christian Standard Bible (2004) made by Southern Baptists, not the ESV.

Riplinger is also inconsistent in attacking James Price for working on two translations when she praises Miles Coverdale who worked on three or four different English translations. Miles Coverdale was involved with his 1535 Coverdale's Bible, his 1538 Latin-English New Testament [different textually because it was translated from the Latin Vulgate], the 1539 Great Bible, and the 1560 Geneva Bible. Riplinger also ignores the fact that most of the early English translators were Calvinists, including the majority of the KJV translators.

He was intimately involved in the process of the Bible's being 'given' (2 Tim. 3:16) and 'purified' (Ps. 12:6, 7) in English" (Hazardous Materials, p. 1165).
