This review is from: The Promise Bible God's Words in Your Words (Comtemporary English Version) (Paperback)

I have never read a Bible that is so easy to read in English and the paper qualilty and fonts are just the right size. I believe it is the best Bible ever produced in modern English. Buy this Bible for yourself and then purchase one to give as a gift. I use this Bible for my writing research then cross-reference with a King James Version for the final draft in my books. I'm sure you will be well pleased with this Bible. That's my recommendation! - James Russell, Author of the Christian devotional book "Walking With The Lord."

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful!!!!, August 22, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: The Promise Bible God's Words in Your Words (Comtemporary English Version) (Paperback)

The Promise Bible is just wonderful, it is the contemporary version of the Bible and it lets younger students of the word understand it more clearly. It is truly a shame that it has gone out of print, because I need another hardcover for a gift.
