Can't put it down!,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Holy Bible : African American Jubilee Edition : Contemporary English Version (Bibles) (Paperback)
This is a very readable, yet scholarly presentation of the scriptures. I usually read the Bible through each year, and read as many versions as possible. This one has wonderful articles on African American history as related to the Bible, has nice large print , has good references, and is faithful to standard translations. It is very readable, and hard to put down. One of my favorites that I will purchase for gifts.

Recommended for students of Biblical & Black History studies,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Holy Bible : African American Jubilee Edition : Contemporary English Version (Bibles) (Paperback)
This stems from the Jubilee Project, which aimed at drawing together Biblical study and Afro-American experience: it presents supplementary material which focuses on Afro-American connections to the Biblical past, and it considers places, peoples, cultures, and social and religious influences on early societies. Chapters introduce and provide overviews of black peoples of the past, while Biblical books open with introductions on themes. Footnotes provide extensive historical and literary explanation and detail. Holy Bible: African American Jubilee Edition is a 'must' for any Afro-American reader who would establish links between Biblical and black history.
