4.0 out of 5 stars NIV version is very easily read and understood, June 15, 2000

A. Bill "book lover" (TX, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Holy Bible: New International Version (Mass Market Paperback)

I like to see people reviewing a Bible for its use in certain environments(for teaching youth, for adults, for new Christians etc). I like this small, compact Bible for shipping to Bible students in other countries. I am partial to the NIV because it is accurate and understandable without watering down the translation. This NIV is small and affordable. The print is a bit small, but still able to be read. I don't think I would recommend it for younthful readers because they are more likely to make an effort to read a version that is colorful, has a dictionary, and possibly some illustrations. The text in this book would appear overwhelming and uninteresting for a young reader.

3.0 out of 5 stars Know the Bible that Fits Your Beliefs, May 21, 2004

B. anderson-bauer (Boston MA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Holy Bible: New International Version (Mass Market Paperback)

Most denominations have a translation of the bible that works best for their faith. It is important to note that different translations take on different meanings to the people who read them. Ever wonder how there can be so much variation in one religion? Translation is a big factor. Here is a list of translations along with the denomination that commonly uses it

Catholics-- NAS, Jerusalem

Liberal Christians (Episcopal, Presbyterians, Congregationalist, ELCA Lutheran) -- NRSV, CEV, Good News (TEV)

Conservative Christians (Baptist, Evangelical, Mormon, Wisconsin and Missouri Lutheran) -- King James, NIV

1.0 out of 5 stars Need a magnifying glass, March 8, 2006

Gini Johnson (Wichita, KS USA) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: The Holy Bible: New International Version (Mass Market Paperback)

I should have known at the price that this would be a really cheap version. The print is so small you need a magnifying glass to read it. If the description had included that caveat, I would have opted for the more expensive edition. Just didn't think about it ahead of time.
