Crossway is offering the 2016 ESV with extensive cross references as a FREE ePub download.  I've loaded it into AndBible 5.0 and am impressed!  

It takes quite a while to import it to AndBible.  When the process finishes, you'll find the "ESV Bible" in the list with your commentaries.  Clicking on any reference (blue letter in the Bible text) opens a cross reference window.  From there, you can click on a reference to get the AndBible verse popup.  Then "Open Reference" will open a third AndBible window with the text of the reference, still within the ESV ePub book.  

I'm just getting started with this.  I thought others might want to know of this new resource AndBible 5.0 has made available.

Thanks for the info! Crossway has also a lot of good quality epub files available for sale. I've been using successfully systematic theology book by mahye & macarthur (https://www.crossway.org/books/biblical-doctrine-case/ ), which works very well with AndBible 5.0.

Thanks for that info about the ESV, Alan. Lots of people ask for that one and this is one way of providing.

We could advertise that option in download screen (there's explanation already that why mod can't be downloaded). Of course it's still not bible module (can't sync with other bibles/commentaries), but better than nothing nevertheless.

Navigating in the Crossway module is different, to be sure. (Read the chapter on "How to use the ESV module, ePub Edition" ).  

From the list of references you can either open the internal ESV reference (confusingly labeled "Open external link") or you can open your default AndBible Bible version by tapping "Open reference").

The biggest value of this ePub module IMO is the extensive cross reference material, which is well integrated within the internal ESV Bible text.

Good point about "Open external link". Created issue: https://github.com/AndBible/and-bible/issues/3008
