ESV Church Bible (Hardcover, Black)

This Bible is just a very simple Bible. It is durable and the print is a very readable size for most people. It is perfect for a church pew. The ESV translation is good in terms of accuracy but is known for being stilted in its readability because of its archaisms.

Print is small and pages are thin, but English Standard version allows faster comprehension and reading than King James Version.

Firstly, this is a review of the build and construction of the book, not any content.The hardcover feels and looks great. The black is very dark and contrasts with the gold label very nicely.The pages are super, super thin. The text can be slightly seen in the backside of pages.However, they feel fine, and not necessarily cheap or weak. They do feel like they can tear easy, but if you are careful, it shouldn’t be a problem.The print is solid, seems accurate, and books are complete and in order.Would highly recommend this product for new followers of Christ or anyone looking to learn more about the Word.

I absolutely love this bible!! It’s so so pretty and so affordable for a hardcover!!

5 stars because it's the Bible, and the price is great.. however I'm not sure I would have chosen this had I viewed in person.The pages are very thin, it can get difficult to focus seeing so clearly the words on the other side. I also don't love that it doesn't have the words in red.Otherwise it is lightweight and easy to travel with

Esta es la herencia de los siervos de Jehová, y su salvación de mí vendrá, dijo Jehová.” Isaías 54:17Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life no one goes to the Father except through Jesus Christ

Perfect and well made! I got this to replace a paperback bible that I spilled water on by accident. This bible definetly seems sturdy and well made, I love the feeling of the leather hardback cover. The paper is thin like a traditional bible as well which I like. I imagine this bible will last me the rest of my life. Love it!

4-Star rating is regarding the Manufacturing not the Word in the Bible itself.It's an affordable Bible, durably constructed.The pages are so thin that the words on the pages behind can make it hard to read, especially noticeable in Psalms because there is a lot of whitespace so the text from the previous page clearly bleeds through.On the brightside, it is compact and sturdy so it's nice as a spare Bible to grab if you just want to lay on the couch and read. It's also very affordable so you can buy extras to give away.But, if this will be your primary Bible, i'd recommend spending a little more for one with thicker pages.
