NIV, KJV, Parallel Bible, Large Print, Hardcover: God's Unchanging Word Across the Centuries

This Bible explains a lot when the Bible confuses a person. It explains it in a way that helps you understand the Bible more.

My step-daughter has started attending church (we're over joyed). The church she attends reads from KJV. It was hard for her to understand. We told her the NIV version of bible would be easier for her. I set out to find a bible that combined both. This bible was perfect. The print isn't what I consider large print but she's young and read it just fine :) I also purchased labels to make it easier for her find each book of bible. I thought about purchasing the tri-fold case but it only comes in black. When she opened the box, she was over whelmed. She is so pleased with her new bible.

I like that KJV has red print! Large enough to read wish was little bigger! Like it very much.

Granddaughter loves it

Love it. KJV has beautiful language but it is not always clear to me about verse meaning. I never heard of parallel Bible's until a friend told me. Bought it right away and am so glad I did.

Love, right size nice to carry

Great book

I bought this as a Christmas gift for my mother, who has a "ludicrous print" Bible now, that's falling apart. She's an NIV fan, and while I'm not from the "KJV-or-bust" camp, I do frequently find the 'old English' feel to have some nuance that I thought she might appreciate being able to easily compare. She seemed happy with it, so it was a good Christmas =). That being said, I understand that the fact that Zondervan packed two complete Bibles in one binding was going to limit exactly how large the print would be, since even a one-point increase would end up making the book a hundred pages thicker, at least. Even so, the text didn't seem worthy of the 'large print' moniker. I had no problem reading it, but the text in her older Bible was definitely "large print", regardless of whether or not you had another Bible handy for comparison. This one is larger print, but only seems that way if you do a direct comparison. The cover is a legit hard cover - the Bible may be the Sword of the Spirit, but I could certainly see this particular Bible pulling double duty as the Shield of Faith in a pinch. The book itself is notably heavier than most other Bibles I've handled. I didn't read through the forwards in their entirety, but it's Charles Stanley, you either like what he has to say or you don't, and either way, the focus is the text anyway. If you like the legibility of the NIV with the accuracy of the KJV, this is your book. If you're looking for a Bible for someone who's got particularly bad eyesight, this might not be the correct one...but either way, it is the Bible, plain and simple.
