Product Description
- Complete text including subject headings. - Printed on high quality Bible paper. - Durable hardcover binding includes foilstamping. - Softcover. - White page edging.

From the Back Cover
Few Bible translations achieve the degree of respect and acceptance enjoyed by the Revised Standard Version over the past half century. Now, with all the Bible's literal accuracy and dignity preserved, we welcome the New RSV! Dramatic archeological discoveries shed new light on our understanding of ancient languages while, no less dramatically, our own use of language changes, too. The most broadly representative translation team yet assembled worked with these changes to bring us the NRSV -- a translation as literal as possible. Key changes include: - Replacement of archaic words; - Revision of English words that have changed in meaning; - Correction of confusing word order; Use of common-gender words where intended; Improvement in the sound and clarity of text when read aloud. Accurate, understandable, and reverent. A new standard for all -- the NRSV.

5.0 out of 5 stars One Good Bible, August 21, 2006
By M Tahaney "Buttonguy" (Port Arthur, Texas United States) - See all my reviews
I can see why this Bible was chosen for the churches. Of all the different Bibles I have this one is by far the best and clearest. It's a shame they call it a "pew Bible" because that stops people from having it in their homes where it should be. The print, the pages, the binding are excellent. Just an excellent Bible.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Edition For New Believers & Serious Readers, December 26, 2000
By Charity (The Beautiful Pacific Northwest) - See all my reviews
This edition of the King James/Authorized Version of the Holy Bible is solidly bound and printed clearly on good quality paper stock. There are many inexpensive paperbound editions available, but this hardback edition will hold up beautifully for those who read their Bibles daily (and everyone else, too!) and is well worth the extra dollar or two.

Makes a wonderful gift to new Christians. :-)
