2.0 out of 5 stars Finally NKJV for the Kindle .... But no chapter navigation, February 17, 2009

By

This review is from: Holy Bible: New King James Version (NKJV) (Kindle Edition)

I have several Bible translations on my Kindle (NIV, NET, ESV, NKJV) and I waited for months for the publisher (Thomas Nelson) to finally release the Kindle edition of the NKJV. I went so far as to write to the publisher and was told that they were taking time to make sure they got it just right. The other translations have the table of contents setup so that at the beginning of each Bible book the chapters have links so that you can jump to them. With the NKJV Kindle edition there are no chapter links so to get to Isaiah Chapter 50 you have to page through until you get there. To make matters worse, you can't tell what chapter you are in except on the first page of each. (see the NET Bible which has chapter and verse notation.

This review is from: Holy Bible, New King James Version (NKJV) (Kindle Edition)

This NKJV for the Kindle was recently updated in October 2009 to fix some of the formatting issues present in the previous version as well as enabling chapter navigation. One word of caution regarding chapter navigation is that it works very well for me with the Old Testament but not so well with the New Testament (would take too long to explain). At any rate, I use this Kindle version as my daily reader and use 4 book marks to pick up where I last left off: 1. In the Old Testament 2. Book of Psalms. 3. Book of Proverbs. 4. New Testament.

When I need to study something in depth, I either go to [...] or pull out one of my leather bound Bibles.

Don't at all be afraid to get this bible if you are going to use it as your daily reader. Again, not so good for in depth bible study unless you get really, really good at using the kindle's search feature.

If you need a kindle Bible with better chapter navigation...get this KJV: Holy Bible - The Illustrated King James Bible (King James Version, KJV): The Old & New Testaments, Deuterocanonical literature, Glossary and Suggested Reading. Illustrated by Gustave Dore

2.0 out of 5 stars No chapter index for books, March 2, 2010

This review is from: The Authorized King James Version of the Holy Bible (Old and New Testament) (Kindle Edition)

yeah the bible is great. But it's alot better if you can choose which chapter in each individual book you want to read. I wanted to read Psalm 106....to do that I'd have to scroll 106 times from psalm 1 to get there. Not convenient if your pastor says " Turn with me please to Matthew 23"...this book is flawed and needs an index for individual chapters in the book. I am taking it off my kindle and rebuying a more usefull one -
