As you walk with him, you’ll begin to identify today’s many religious pitfalls. These are presented by men such as Pliable, who turns back at the Slough of Despond; and Ignorance, who believes he’s a true follower of Christ when he’s really only trusting in himself. Each character represented in this allegory is intentionally and profoundly accurate in its depiction of what we see all around us, and unfortunately, what we too often see in ourselves. But while Christian is injured and nearly killed, he eventually prevails to the end. So can you. The best part of this book is the Bible verses added to the text. The original Pilgrim’s Progress listed the Bible verse references, but the verses themselves are so impactful when tied to the scenes in this allegory, that they are now included within the text of this book. The text is tweaked just enough to make it readable today, for the young and the old. Youngsters in particular will be drawn to the original illustrations included in this wonderful classic. Review: Great update of a great book - The Pilgrim's Progress is my favourite book. I try to read it once a year, sometimes in its original versions and sometimes in a modern update. I liked this version because it contains both parts of Bunyan's classic Christian prose. It also contains the Bible quotes in full which deepens your understanding of the symbolism of the story and helps you appreciate that what Bunyan has done is give us an account of the Christian life firmly grounded in scripture truth. However, I don't understand why they chose a translation that uses archaic language when the rest of the book uses modern English; a better translation would have been the HCSB, the ESV or the NIV but that's my only quibble. This is a timeless tale, so helpful for all who enter though the narrow gate - Christ Jesus - and walk the narrow path the the world to come. A must-read! Review: Wonderful. - Here is the wonderful old classic, written in prison by John Bunyan, made easier to read by modernising the language. It is a great allegory of the Christian life and repays thought and meditation on its timeless truths. If this edition can make the book accessible to a new generation, that can only be good, since our society has lost so many of its glorious thoughts and values. Valuable to every Christian, it should be a must on every reading list. I did slightly miss the beautiful, archaic language, but instead the story took on a new immediacy. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 791,800 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 2,141 in Christian Fiction (Books) 18,186 in Fiction Classics (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 7,578 Reviews | ## Images ![Pilgrim's Progress (Bunyan): Updated, Modern English.

A must-read! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful. *by A***N on 14 July 2015* Here is the wonderful old classic, written in prison by John Bunyan, made easier to read by modernising the language. It is a great allegory of the Christian life and repays thought and meditation on its timeless truths. If this edition can make the book accessible to a new generation, that can only be good, since our society has lost so many of its glorious thoughts and values. Valuable to every Christian, it should be a must on every reading list. I did slightly miss the beautiful, archaic language, but instead the story took on a new immediacy. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Good Read *by T***H on 25 January 2022* It was in my childhood that I first read Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress in it's original 17th century English. Some of the characters' names and titles have stuck in my memory; such as, Mr Worldly Wiseman and Giant Despair. etc. This modern English translation is a very good read and a superb tool for all Bunyan scholars. The fact that it includes the Scripture references (in italics) as part of the text is very helpful indeed especially for preachers looking for helpful sermon illustrations. Highly recommended. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/54220905-pilgrims-progress-bunyan-updated-modern-english-more-than-100-illustrations](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/54220905-pilgrims-progress-bunyan-updated-modern-english-more-than-100-illustrations) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-06-22*
