5.0 out of 5 stars About this edition, not the translation itself..., February 3, 2001

By

This review is from: NASB Slimline Reference Bible (Bonded Leather)

This review is about my opinion on the edition and helps, not the quality of the NASB itself.

I was looking for an edition of the NASB which was small, had both the OT and NT, and had references to OT quotations (the last two features are missing from my pocket-sized NT-only NASB (ISBN: 0-529-10772-4)). This edition has all of those features, plus: a center-column cross-reference list indexed by chapter and verse; a relatively concise concordance (pp. 951-1013); and 5 color maps (which look a little too much like neon lights -- the color choices are a bit "electric").

The font is _very_ small and there isn't much room in the margin for notes, but the combination of OT/NT and the cross-references/quotation references forced the sacrifice of these features.

I do wish that there were some extra blank pages at the end of the book for personal notes (there is only one side of a blank page between the concordance and the maps).

Overall, a good edition. It's a little larger than the NT edition (ISBN listed above): about 1/2 an inch taller and wider, but not much thicker (1/4"?). Considering that the OT is included, it's pretty amazing. I'd recommend this as a pocket edition, but don't expect much room for notes and don't get it if you have trouble reading small text.

This review is from: NASB Slimline Reference Bible (Bonded Leather)

This NASB translation is a very handy sized Bible that is very readable. The type size is relatively small but very crisp. Had I known this copy has index tabs cut into the pages I would have chosen a different model. Overall a very good buy for an excellent translation that is easy to carry with you when you go out witnessing.
