Holy Bible: New King James Version, Brown, Premium Goatskin Leather: Premier Collection, Single-Column Reference

I've had this NKJV SCR Bible in Premium Brown Goatskin Leather for near on a month, and I cannot express the least bit of disappointment with it.The goatskin leather is beautifully thick, especially when put next to an NASB Schuyler Stridon Bible I bought and had to return. That one had a very supple, even floppy, goatskin leather binding.The thicker, 36gsm paper makes it a joy to hold and flip through pages. The paper is also more opaque. And the somewhat creamy white makes it more pleasant to look at for extended periods, when compared to the stark white of the Stridon.The 10.5pt font is just right for my 35yo eyes, and the single column paragraph layout is the perfect compromise between a full-on reader's bible like the Bibliotheca ALV Bible set I have at home (which has no verse or chapter enumerations), and a verse-by-verse study bible (which makes reading a little disjointed from verse to verse). The double column look always makes me feel like I'm reading more of a textbook, than the Holy Word of God, which is made up of multiple genres of literature, not just referential information.Every book begins on a brand new page, and doesn't just add some white space between the previous and current books! I didn't realize I would miss that feature. And the additional aides (references, footnotes, concordance, maps) are more than good enough to do some quick study. Also, those ribbons have a great feel to them, and are plenty long.Finally, this is a size that I can bear to use at home, for study or devotions, or to read along while in church.If there's any changes I would make (but these don't hamper my enjoyment of this thoughtful presentation of the Word of the Lord), they would be these:1. Separate the references and footnotes, with the references at the top, and the footnotes at the bottom2. Make the verse numbers a bit more distinct, by maybe underlining or italicizing or coloring them. Or even making the size a tad bigger and a bit more separate from the actual text. (But this is a weakness across most SCR paragraph-style Bibles).3. Include short book summaries as well!Other than that, as I'd initially said, there's next to nothing that I would change about this elegant and carefully-planned presentation of the God-Breathed Scriptures! I would recommend that anyone who enjoys reading the Word of God through the translational presentation of the NKJV strongly consider this Bible!!

The Bible came in a box that was damaged and smashed at the corners. Furthermore it did not have the authentic cover and seal as advertised. I was disappointed at this as it looks like a second hand product.

Absolutely stunning. Not one flaw in this bible from condition to the amazing references set up within this bible. Very durable, I cannot wait to hand this down to my son one day.

I have read and watched many reviews on this NKJV SCR Bible, and it really looks wonderful. And true enough, when I received my copy, the entire Bible is very beautiful and well built, I believe it can last a lifetime. The bible paper used in this bible is not too thin and very opaque, which make the reading very comfortable and easy on the eyes. The 10.5 Comfort Print font is just out of this world!Amazon is a great place to order anything that we need. The delivery is fast. My order came 4 days ahead of the estimated time. Really a pleasant and good experience to shop on Amazon.

The best book you can have. The most important book to read. You can not exhaust the fact and truth contained in the pages of this book of life.
