This NKJV Personal Size Giant Print Reference Bible has many more features than just a large print text.It is reference rich, Features include: Large-print concordance,Footnotes,Ribbon marker Read-along cross-reference and translations Presentation page,Words of Lord Jesus Christ in red,plenty of maps and friendly indexes.

My primary disappointment with this Bible is the text size. While I could justify calling it large print, I cannot agree with its being labeled giant! It is readable, but I did really expect larger print. The cover and other binding details are quite nice for the price and I do really appreciate the concordance being set in the same size type. All in all, it seems a good value, but because of the giant label I do feel a bit misled. It was also physically smaller, though it is quite thick. Many people would probably prefer a taller and wider volume with less thickness. A great buy if this is the size you are looking for, but be aware giant is a misnomer here.

This is my daily Bible. It is about the same size as a Scofield Reference/Study Bible with print twice the size. I prefer this Bible because it has some unique features:

* Compact for transportation. * Large print that I can easily read in my lap. * Read-along references and alternate translations. * No distracting center column wasting space. * The only literal modern translation based on the Textus Receptus. * Unbiased easy to understand textual notes. * Excellent introduction to Bible translation philosophy.

One drawback is that it is not as durable as the Scofield (though it will still last for years). The concordance and maps sections should be larger (but are adequate) too. The Scofield has a much better concordance and topical index. If you are looking for a inexpensive yet thourough study Bible, get the Nelson Study Bible.

I am a preacher and I use the New King James Version to achieve a balance between those who grew up with the King James and feel most comfortable with it and those who are younger and need a friendlier version. I need large print as I'm getting up in years. My previous Bible was the same as this one -- only it had tabs to help locate specific books of the Bible. I don't need the tabs. My previous Bible gave me many years of service. I expect the same from this one. The seller got this brand new Bible to me in a very short time and in perfect condition.

I like the new King James Version of Holy Bible because of the large print and that the thous and other old style words are changed into todays English. The Old Testament was made alot more clear to me and I enjoy reading the Bible more.

This Bible is very good quality. It is all in giant print. The words of Jesus are printed in red. It has thumb tabs for finding the books easily. The edges of the pages have gold on them. It stays open for easy reading. And is a nice size. The cover is black leather.

Product is just what I needed as my vision is not as good as it used to be.

The book is concordance and reference materials in this book are great and helpful. My problem is that the text is too large and crowded on the pages making it difficult to read and look up versus. Started giving me a headache after awhile. I would like to recommend the regular Nelson NKJV Reference bible. Its will be easier to read. Another great bible, the one I like the best, is the Nelsons SLIMLINE bible. Perfect to take to church because its smaller and lighter but the words are still large enough to read on a regular basis. I have the genuine leather edition and bought it on amazon and just LOVE it! Hope this helped.
