5.0 out of 5 stars Ilumina, October 4, 2002

By	"rhklzr" (Haughton, LA United States) - See all my reviews

Absolutely incredible! My 8 year old sat at the computer for hours "touring" Jerusalem and viewing the animations. Ilumina brings the Bible to 'life' right on your screen. Using the New Living Translation combined with computer animation, the user feels as if they are literally standing and watching the action take place. The Bible study tools are numerous, giving the user many resources to pull from before pulling a commentary off the wall. As a christian Educator, I highly recommend this software become a part of your library.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Gift From God, October 30, 2002

By A Customer

You will get goosebumps when you walk through Jerusalem and you can turn in any direction you want or walk into buildings and look up and all around. Go straight to applicable bible verses. I'm making this a Christmas gift for friends and family. I actually got teary eyed when I saw the bible come to life. Very powerful. A beautiful and inspiring product. Thank you so much.

5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible Software at an Incredible Price, December 14, 2002

By A Customer

I am always skeptical to buy the first version of any new software product, but I was truly blown away by this product. It is as comprehensive as I have ever seen and the user interface is fun and easy to use. Not only are the computer animations terrific (my kids especially love them), I have found the ability to search and cross reference and look up encyclopedia articles of great value. In just three weeks of using this product, I feel it has really helped me get a better understanding of the greatest book ever written. I have never seen a software product that was so well suited for 4 year olds through 70 year olds - there really is something for everyone here. Strongly recommend this as a gift for christmas.
