Practical,
This review is from: Life Application Study Bible NLT (Hardcover)
I was checking out bibles one day and came across this one. The words "life application" caught my eye so I checked it out.I have to say, I was impressed. I haven't ever been one to sit down and read a lot of the bible, mainly because it was a hard read for me with all the ancient names and verbage. That's the beauty of this bible and where the "life applications" part comes in. This book explains clearly what was going on at the various times and places- which is the kind of stuff that got me lost before. And getting lost didn't make me want to study it that much! A great bible. In a nutshell, will help you make sense out of what is going on and how a message fits into your modern-day life. Other practical books I also found helpful include "Finding Happiness in a Frustrating World."

Easy to Read for Its Size - Great for Tired Eyes: Hardback,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Life Application Study Bible Anniversary Edition NLT (Hardcover)
My optician told me reading can be blurry at night because one's eyes tend to be dryer. Henceforth I have elected to go forth to find a Study Bible that doesn't weigh 5 pounds but is readable. Study Bibles often present a technical challenge to produce less eye strain because the addition of study notes leaving a publisher often to add pages (often making the paper thinner to keep the book thin)and reduced or condensed style font size to fit more text in a smaller book. This book wins big time for readability even though it is not a designated large print book. Reason: Tyndale uses heavy ink in this bible. Even the Red Letter portions are a joy to read. This Bible also had terrific opacity (whiteness of paper) making it entirely competitive with even many Large print bibles almost twice it's weight. Go ahead compare it to the Macarthur NKJV or Nelson Large Print Study Bible and you'll know what I mean. This is NOT true for the Tyndale two tone leather edition which uses less opaque paper. Compare them sides by side and you'll notice the hardback version is slightly easier to read. So if readability is your goal...the hard back here is a terrific value. Throw a bible cover on it and give your eyes a merciful rest, and save yourself a couple of bucks off the leather edition. (Besides, hardbacks are easier to write notes in!) If you need nothing stronger than light powered reading glasses this book will keep you feeling younger longer.

NLT, Revised and Accurate!,
By Terry (Toronto, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Life Application Study Bible NLT (Hardcover)
The updated New Living Translation Life Application Bible is an excellent resource for studying the Bible. The 1996 NLT has been thoroughly updated in this 2004 edition with an emphasis on increased accuracy in translation. The LAB notes have been revised with new features added such as more personality profiles and a christian worker's resource. An article on mining the treasures of the LAB is helpful. The size and boldness of the text font has been improved making this a much more readable Bible. If you want a translation that is actually written in today's english and that is understandable with "down to earth" practical helps buy the NLT Life Application Bible updated edition and dive in!
