My Favorite Bible:
I have grown to love the Good News Translation and finally it has been published in bonded leather! This is a beautiful and accurate translation from the original languages, easy to read and understand, yet very reverent and powerfully interpereted. The illustrations are tastefully and beautifully done throughout and actually add desireability rather than detract. This is the centerpiece of my Bible collection and I read it daily.
satisfied, but find a deal:
I like this bible, particularly the illustrations by the Swiss artist. However, I later found that the American Bible Society sells the same bible at $8.
Color illustrations and leather bound!:
I was surprised to see a new leather bound edition and bought it immediately. This edition combines the easy to understand, generally accurate text of the GNT with with hundreds of helpful, colorful line drawings. Before now, I have never seen the drawings in color. Apart from the graphic on the front cover (not offensive, but unneccessary and cheapens the look a bit) and a few renderings that are possible but neither probable nor preferred, this is a great Bible to have. It's just the right size with silver page edges and a ribbon marker. The leather isn't very good quality, but it's priced right. I recommend its purchase.
