Hardcover

It's a beautiful bible. I like that it comes with a box cover to protect it because Amazon doesn't do a very good job at packaging. That will protect it from getting damaged on transport. Great study notes, pictures, and all kinds of extra info that helps you understand context while reading the Bible. It has 2 red ribbons inside. I love it.

Absolutely the best and only Bible you need. Seriously stop scrolling and buy this one. KJV is a hard read but NKJV brings the beauty of the Bible with an easier to understand translation without losing anything like other translation’s. It has a lot of photos and explanations. It reads like a text book. I have bought a few bibles but hadn’t found the right one and finally have. I bought the NKJV hardcover Bible. The pictures are only on paper cover and not on the cover of the Bible itself. The Bible is hardcover in burgundy. There are no indents for each book of the bible. I’m extremely happy with my purchase.

I own a few study Bibles with different Scripture translations. To me, the NLT is the most readable and easily understandable translation. The NLT Study Bible notes are most excellent. I love the language and style of the NASB as it is the translation I first used after becoming a Christian. I love the NKJV for its beautiful language and because it includes many NT (New Testament) phrases and verses which greatly show how Scripture interprets Scripture, that the the NU (Nestle-Aland United) NT text omits. I bought both the hardcopy and Kindle versions of this Bible. The notes, cross references, in-text maps, articles, word studies, character studies and ginormous concordance are nothing short of amazing. I am enjoying reading this Bible one page at a time - including all cross references, all footnotes and all word studies and special articles. It takes quite a while to read the Bible this way, but the richness of reading familiar or repeated verses in the cross references and footnotes helps to solidify the truth of their teaching into my mind and spirit. The almost full-color aspect of this bible is gorgeous. Why "almost"? Because Nelson decided for some strange, unexplained reason to print the words of Jesus in black instead of the traditional red in this "full-color" Bible. However, that creates an opportunity for me to go through my NT and underline Jesus' words in red with a Pigma marker and flexible ruler, reinforcing His teachings in my mind and spirit. These last few paragraphs are a bit long and are for the benefit of those who've struggled with navigating through this Bible on their Android phone with the Kindle app. I bought the Kindle version so I could easily read this Bible's rich features on my phone while in bed or on the go. The instructions on how to navigate through the various parts of this Bible in the beginning pages of the Kindle version are very helpful. It's quite easy to navigate to any chapter and book, as the instructions describe. However, if you're looking for verse 85 of the 119th Psalm, you'll have to scroll a few pages past the beginning of the chapter to find it. Other Bible software I have and use on my phone makes it much easier to navigate directly to specific verses. When initially looking up a cross reference or footnote with the Kindle version, verses referenced in them are not hyperlinked. You have two options. You can either look up the verse via other Bible software on your phone (or a hardcopy) or select "See all footnotes" at the bottom of your screen. After doing option two, referenced verses are hyperlinked and are easy to select. The letter of the footnote you select is highlighted and to the left of the verse number from which it was selected. After selecting the hyperlink and reading the cross referenced verse, you can navigate back to the list of all footnotes by touching the lower part of your screen on a non-hyperlinked area, which brings up the Kindle quick navigation within a book. Select the tiny window at the bottom which reads, "Back to nnn", where "nnn" is the previous page you were viewing, which is the list of footnotes. The highlighted letter next to the verse that began this trek is gone. So, you'll simply have to remember which verse you were reading. Then, touch the letter to the left of the verse, which will take you directly back to the book, chapter and verse. After you practice this a couple of times, you'll get the hang of it. The instructions in the Kindle Bible tell you to use the back button on your device to get back to where you were originally reading in your Bible. If I do that on my phone, the Kindle reader exits the Bible book and presents me with the list of books in my Kindle library. Using my Kindle hardware, the back button works as expected. The instructions do include the caveat that you'll need to look up your specific device's instructions regarding navigation. Those instructions probably won't tell you anything about Kindle navigation, in which case you'll simply have to experiment and find what works for your device.

This is one of the most comprehensive study Bibles I’ve used. The full-color photos, maps, and illustrations really bring the historical and cultural context of the Scriptures to life. The NKJV translation is clear and readable, and the book introductions, word studies, and bottom-of-page notes add depth without feeling overwhelming. The Comfort Print type is easy on the eyes, and the hardcover feels durable. My only complaint is that it’s quite heavy and large — not something you’ll want to carry everywhere, especially if you also carry other books or items. But for home study, preparation, or extended reading sessions, it’s excellent.

I'm not new to Christianity, I was raised going to church and God has been an important part of my life from the beginning. Ive become a "church on holidays" type of person, but now that Im a wife and mother of 2 babies I wanted to really renew and explore my faith. Ive always wanted to read the Bible all the way through, but every time I get stuck in the beginning of Genesis and give up. So I got myself a year long study guide and this Bible. So far I am 1 whole week into my daily readings and absolutely devouring the breakdown of information. This Bible has helped me understand the language and story of the verses in depth. I am learning so much I didnt know, and really enjoying the way this Bible breaks down every verse. There are also pictures and side notes of information along the way that have helped me stay interested. Trying to read the Bible for what it is as someone who isnt very knowledgeable about the language feels like I'm just reading words on a page. The breakdown of this Bible has helped me understand and retain so much information that I didn't even know I was missing. I highly recommend this study Bible for everyone, but especially for those of you who want to read and understand the Bible better, and need it broken down and explained more, like me!

I love this bible. It has beautiful coloured maps & lots of notes & charts. The font size in the main text is comfortable enough to read. The font size of the notes are a little bit smaller but still comfortable to read. This bible is a wealth of information for spiritual growth.

This version is beautiful! With maps, graphics, and great explanations! Arrived in perfect condition

I purchased this hardcover NKJV Study Bible as an Easter gift for my young adult son. I was pleased when it arrived to see how nice it is. This Bible is beautiful, packed with colour illustrations and maps, and filled with helpful information of all kinds. I particularly like the articles on different subjects which are sprinkled throughout the Bible. I am probably going to borrow my son's Bible just to read these. Note that the hardcover shown in the photo has a dustjacket. The actual cover of the book is plain, with a shiny maroon colour. There is gold lettering on the spine. I think it looks nice with the dustjacket on or off.

Good Bible but font size is a little too small for seniors

I would have given five stars for the book/box, but because of the way it was sent (box was just put in a paper envelope/bag, without any protective material), completely damaged two corners of the box (and misformed corners of the leather a bit). This is so frustrating and I cannot keep the book in the shelf in its cover box now, and returning this heavy book would cost almost as much in shipping as the cost of the book…
