5.0 out of 5 stars Faithful Translation of the Word of God, February 25, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Holy Bible: The New King James Version (Pew Library Edition) (Hardcover)

I have studied some Greek and the original texts, and I must say many modern bibles are corrupting the Word of God, no only in the unliteral translations but faulty originals they use. The King James Version is faithful, both in being literal and using authentic texts. The New King james Version is faithful in this attempt, the only changes being bringing the bible into more modern, but still respectful, English, and a few clarifications of words which have changed their meanings. I recommend it to all Christians.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Baroque Bible in a solemnly grand paperback, August 30, 2001

This review is from: Holy Bible (Mass Market Paperback)

For Gibbon-thumping Milton fans like myself, it's troubling to have to experience the poetic majesty of the King James Bible through some sorrily-printed Zondorvan or Nelson edition, especially as it is likely to be larded with commentary of the most dubious (considered archaeologically or theologically) nature. There's always "The Bible Designed to Be Read as Living Literature," but who wants to be cheated by abridgment (to say nothing of RSV substitutions)? This lovely Ivy Books paperback is the perfect answer to this dilemma. Its virtue is to present the KJV in a readable format, sans additions of any kind, with a majestic veined-granite cover. It places the Bible as a book among other books, without making it humble. A comfort in the hands and easy on the eyes, this edition allows the majesty of this Renaissance cathedral of Words to speak to the reader with all the billowing grandeur of its majestic style and substance. Nor would it seem cheaply out of place in a place of worship. Whether one seeks literary or divine intoxication, this edition is worthy of one's affection.

I purchased this bible for my 5 year old. I added some tabs so he can find the books easier. He likes it a lot. I actually find myself using it occasionally as well. The type is easy to read and well organized. You can't beat the size, layout and price of this gem of a bible.
