Excellent update,
By Scott L. (Jamestown, New york United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Holy Bible : 21st Century King James Version (KJ21) (Bonded Leather)
I have to say this is my favorite Bible, and I pretty much use it exclusively. Contrary to what Mr. Zeolla writes, I think the update is just enough, to where only the very arcahaic and obsolete words are updated to their modern day synonyms. This feature makes it a joy to read, study, and memorize. I love the print type (very unique feature), and the overall layout. I have the burgundy bonded leather edition and it is extremely well crafted, so I know I will have years of use from this Bible. As the publishers note in their preface, this is not a re-translation but a careful and faithful update. Job well done.

...I love this one...,
By Aero (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Holy Bible : 21st Century King James Version (KJ21) (Bonded Leather)
The single column layout is less distracting than the double colmun, traditional layout. The page design is the main reason I chose this Bible. There are minimal, well-abbeviated references. Also, there are three text types for emphasis and chapters summaries are nice. I have read from it daily for the past year. I'm hooked!

Interesting Idea,
By A Customer
This review is from: Holy Bible: 21st Century King James Version (KJ21) (Hardcover)
If you only read the KJV, but are troubled by the out-of-date vocabulary, this may be for you. This is a very mimimal update compared to NKJV or even the 1967 Scofield. Only the very out-of-date words are replaced, nothing else is changed. In fact, it seems many borderline archaic words were left in. The only bad part is that the typeface strategy is distracting, but some readers, those trying to instruct children or lead classes, might like it.
