NKJV, End-of-Verse Reference Bible, Personal Size Large Print, Leathersoft, Black, Red Letter, Comfort Print: Holy Bible, New King James Version

I bought both this black one and the dark purple embossed one for gifts and for my own use. These are excellent Bibles and such an excellent value for the quality. The print is large and easy to read with good spacing between the lines. There is line matching so the reverse doesn't show through, and the Bible lies open easily at any location. It has two nice satin ribbons and has edge gilding. It includes some references, a concordance, and maps. These are features that are like those in very expensively bound Bibles (Allan and Schyler), of which I also have several. I'd be satisfied with having only this edition, though, as it's very easy to read and use, and I'm using mine a lot. Overall, especially for the price, it's the best edition I've found, and I've looked at many and own quite a few. I hope Nelson always keeps making this edition. The New King James Version translation is a well recognized, mainstream translation in modern but not dumbed-down English that has been used for decades. It's my overall favorite translation of the Bible. (I also like the KJV, ESV, and NASB-95.) This translation is a more literal, word for word translation (which I much prefer) than a thought for thought one. It retains the beautiful language and accuracy of the KJV but in more modern English. (No "-eth" suffiixes, "you" instead of "thou," etc. The meanings have not changed.) You can't go wrong with this edition; great print features and of course the content is what is most valuable.

This Bible is beautiful! The larger print is soothing on the eyes. Thank you.

I really like this bible because all the verses are on the left side of each column so it's easy to find. Yes, I know the chapter and verse divisions are not inspired but I need this for a bible study and was previously challenged finding the tiny verses on my other bible. These verses numbers are also just as large and clear as the font which is called "the Thomas Nelson NKJV Typeface", created at the 2K/DENMARK type foundry. (stated inside) The size of the font could be approx. size 12 I have been looking for a bible that did not have the Times New Roman font and the giant print style bibles out there are just too big and bulky for me to lug around. Also the pages are on the thin side but seem to be good quality, meaning you can see through the letters on the other side but it's not too distracting. Also, there are 8 maps at the end with an extensive concordance.

The NKJV, End-of-Verse Reference Bible, Personal Size Large Print, Leathersoft, Black, Red Letter is a great Bible, especially for the money. The large print is easy to read, yet it's compact enough to carry around comfortably. End of verse cross references are a wonderful idea, which are like paper hyperlinks when one verse of the Bible references another. It lays flat to read and having a smaller print concordance allows it to contain many words without making the Bible bulky. The New King James Version is a highly respected word-for-word type translation written in modern English which makes it easy and enjoyable to read.

This is (almost) precisely the Book of books I was looking for. Chosen after a good deal of searching, it has great font size, a text unencumbered by the postulations of man, limited but useful cross-references in appropriate place (end of verse) pointing to similar context, and a reasonable concordance aiding in location of other uses of the word. In addition, it points to some of the textual differences between the various manuscript types. It is also humble enough not to bother trying to tell us where the paragraphing starts and ends through use of the mechanism of "boldfacing" particular verse numbers, or laying before us an unfortunate 'paragraph formatting.' A text one can simply pick up, and (for the most part) let Yahweh Elohim do the talking. I will continue looking, as two (2) more things would be helpful: 1. Elimination of the 'red lettering" for what Jesus said. He being God, and we all understanding the entire text is spoken by God, it should be unnecessary to make stand out particular things our God had to say to us. 2. Elimination of the sub-headings within the text. Though they speak to part of the content of the subsequent verses, which is undoubtedly helpful in a way, they can also focus our attention away from what our Father wants us to take away from the passage on any given read of it, as the Word is taken in again, for application by the Spirit. (In other words, the sub-headings can be both a help, and a distraction. We mst guard against the latter.) To a degree, I would also prefer a text without verse numbers, as these are man's additions to God's presentation to us as well. NOTE TO THE READER OF THIS REVIEW: The above "also useful" things are applicable only to me, and to the particular Book of books I'm on the hunt for at present. Being of advanced age, sufficient Biblical texts and other books of every flavor and brew are on hand to fill up to overflowing the possession of man's encumbrances upon God's revelation. Having eaten of their delicacies sufficiently, I seek now truly Sola Scriptura for my daily encounters with God, letting Him be my source of understanding as I compare Scripture with Scripture for truth, and other people's works for their fidelity to it.. This NKJV End-of-verse Personal Size Large Print Reference Bible is tremendous for the purposes for which it has been sent forth, and can't really be recommended highly enough.

I love the Word of God and to have a Bible that is so very well made at a low cost like this one is fantastic. The print is also a big plus. Easy to read print.

Really nice quality bible I would 100% recommend this one

I like the appearance (I'll try to keep it looking good if I can). Print is barely big enough with my standard glasses (1.5x); I need the higher magnification ones (3.25x). I guess I should have gotten a giant print version. Like most Bibles, pages are thin enough that print from the other side shows through, making it a bit harder to read. I don't get why they make Bibles with thin pages. Paper that doesn't show through should be standard even if it means more bulk or splitting into 2 volumes.

This Bible is an absolute joy! The quality is fantastic, and the large font makes reading a true pleasure. I can spend much longer in God's Word without eye strain, which is exactly what I was hoping for. Highly recommend!

Pages are really soft and comfortable and the font is a very good size, the design and attention to detail is amazing!

Nice big text, with Jesus’s words in red. Cross references also a nice touch.

Nice quality Bible, good font and easy to read. Great reference points to specify differences between other texts and the KJV. Beautiful colored maps at the end as well.

Exactly as described easy to read lettering very good quality
