5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Bible, March 14, 2001

This review is from: KJV Pew Bible (Burgundy) (Hardcover)

I just got this Bible today and I really like it. It is small and compact and yet the print is very readable. One great thing is that it does not contain a bunch of index columns and authors' commentaries and their own ideas--it contains only the Holy Scriptures and this is what I have wanted. This is a great volume of scripture at an affordable price. I don't think this Bible should be limited to just the church pews as the title implies. This is a great volume to take anywhere(for travel, home devotions/Bible studies, etc.). Well done.

4.0 out of 5 stars The bible and nothing else, July 23, 2005

This review is from: KJV Pew Bible (Black) (Hardcover)

This is the plainest bible I ever saw. Other than two black and white maps at the end, this bible contains nothing besides the bible text itself. There are absolutely no footnotes of any type. It is a black letter edition. There are no section headings. Words added by translators are in italics.

This is a black hardcover bible, one which stays open by itself when opened on a desk. Inner margins are wide enough so that inner text is easily read. The font size is typical for bibles.

The one problem is bleed through. This bible has about the average amount. I can see not only the page I am reading, but the page on the other side. The page is thick enough that it is difficult to read the underlying page through blank spots on the current page. This bible is definitely readable even with the bleed through, especially if the page is held up while reading it in order to cut bleed through.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for Kindle Users Buy it!, January 9, 2008

This review is from: Holy Bible (King James Version), Old & New testament (Kindle Edition)

The other reviews on this page (at least most) seem to be from non-Kindle users. This King James version has a clickable Table of Contents and clickable chapters in the individual books.

The NIV version is also clickable in the Kindle version and the Table of Contents on that one is a wee bit easier to read, but this will meet your needs for an easily searchable KJV and at 80 cents it is a bargain.
