Finally, the NIV is paired with a Japanese Bible translation. I especially appreciate the the pronunciation marks over all the Chinese characters. This is the only Japanese-English whole Bible that has this. The bilingual sets of maps and harmony of the Gospels in both languages are very useful too. I use this all the time.

A great way of studying Japanese along side an English Bible translation.

Much of the Kanji in this book comes with Furigana (small characters above the Kanji that tell you how to pronounce the Kanji).

This is a very nice combination of what I understand is a newer Japanese version with the NIV in English, side-by-side. It's big and heavy, but it's the only full bilingual (OT & NT together) I've found.

There's no real reference or concordance, but I guess that would only make it bigger & heavier.

Hard to find in the US.

This is the only Japanese/English Bible I've found to date that has both the Old and New Testaments. If you're a Christian and studying Japanese, this is the ultimate multitask: nourish the spirit and study a language... Even if you're not Christian (although I wonder who you stumbled on this product), this would still give lots of practice (and you could pick a place where you knew the story, like Genesis).

If you are a native English speaker living in Japan or studying Japanese, and if you need the WHOLE Bible with side-by-side translations on each page, with furigana over the Kanji to show you how the Kanji is pronounced, then this is the Bible for you.

There are two things I especially appreciate about this Bible...

1. Since the Japanese is oftentimes longer than the English, in the English side of the Bible there are periodic large empty spaces left that allow the Japanese to catch up with the English. This makes for great note taking spaces. Its like a wide margin Bible in that way.

2. Many Japanese Bibles do not have topical indexes. Since the English version has the topical indexes and I can skim English faster than Japanese, it is much easier to find passages that I am looking for in Japanese.

Format: Hardcover
The Japanese-English Bible is so wonderful. I am a native-English speaker and am learning Japanese so it is wonderful to see English and Japanese translations of the bible side by side. The NIV is my favorite translation of the bible as well. it's hardcover so the bible last forever. there are two cloth bookmarks attached to the bible. i think every kanji has the furigana pronunciation above it. i was a little disappointed when i read "tomodachi" and only the "tomo"'s kanji was given since I have since learned the whole word's characters, but it is still good for me to know the pronunciation and what part of the word each kanji makes. this is a fascinating buy and it's something i don't regret!

Format: Hardcover
This is an excellent Bible. My bone to pick is that it is very large and heavy. We give it as a gift to our Japanese exchange students while they visit the U.S. It is invaluable in helping them to understand their visits to church. The problem is that it uses up a lot of their 50 lb. checked baggage weight limit, when they fly back to Japan. We worry that it is the first thing to go in the garbage at the airport when their bags are overlimit. There is another bilingual Bible, in small format, with no helps in back, but I haven't been able to find one since 2004. We bought it for $25 back then. Please email me if anyone has a source for it. Now, this version is the only one we can find, and it is cheaper straight from the International Bible Society [...].
