Amplified Holy Bible, Bonded Leather, Burgundy, Thumb Indexed: Captures the Full Meaning Behind the Original Greek and Hebrew

Wonderful translation and notes - print quite small (too hard to read notes under text). Would recommend the Amplified Study Bible, as the print is so much easier to read. 4 stars.

This is a beautiful Bible! As I have gotten older it made me not be able to read the Bible except online. I wanted to be able to read my own Bible again! The large print helps not feel like I was seeing words coming through from the back of the page. I could have bought many Bibles in stores but none were Amplified version. I prefer the Amplified because it translates better in English.

This slimline Newly Revised Amplified Bible is the best translation I’ve ever read - and I’ve tried all of them over the years. The amplification of Hebrew/Aramaic/Greek emphasis is so powerful, It really brings the word alive. I’ve been blown away by this version and I prefer it now over the original or ‘Classic’ version. They’ve done a really good job of making the text read more naturally and fluid, with or without the definitions in brackets. An unexpected surprise was the inclusion of verse helps and study notes at the bottom of each page and some essential end-of-verse cross references throughout. The font isn’t too small either, at about 8.5 size, being so clear and well spaced that I manage to see this even without my reading glasses! I love the textured, deep ruby, bonded leather cover, the smyth-sewn fine binding and red ribbon marker. What with the added indexing and gilded edges, this looks to be more expensive than it is. This is definitely my go-to Bible. With such brilliant amplification, I am finding I can’t put it down. The only disappointment for some might be the absense of any maps or concordance and Jesus’s words are not in red. However, this has not put me off at all and I’m really enjoying my lightweight, portable, exciting new Bible! It comes nicely boxed with a presentation page, so would make an ideal gift.

Purchased from Amazon Warehouse (used as new) and cheaper, perfect condition just untidy box it came in. I already have the Amplified Study Bible but it's really heavy for holding on my lap when reading in bed and this is perfect. Lovely bonded leather cover with gold edge pages and book mark edges. Print size is smaller than the Study Bible but as an older person it is no problem with my reading glasses. Has made such a difference to my older bible as this is more like reading the word of God as a story and so much easier to understand.. I highly recommend this Bible as easy to read and understand and good value.

Beautiful bible and this version has a wonderful correct interpretation from the Hebrew and Greek versions more clearly than any other translation. Brings to light a lot of specifics.
