Here is, by far, the worst update they made:

In Gen 30:35 the new revision says, "Laban removed the male goats... and put them in the charge of his sons."

Whereas the old version was far far better which said, "Laban removed the male goats... and put them in charge of his sons."

The old version was far more interesting with its goats-reigning-over-men theology.

My guess is they aren't emphasizing that the text has been changed because they advertise the ESV as "Truth. Unchanged." Hehe.
