 The
1599 Geneva Bible
The
classic study Bible of the Reformers, Puritans and Pilgrims
gets a much-needed facelift from Tolle Lege Press, making
it more accessible than ever to modern readers.
Crossway's
ESV Journaling Bible
Finally,
someone is listening to me! This edition started as an idea
in my head, and now it's a reality. If you like Moleskine
notebooks, you're going to love the new ESV Journaling Bible,
the best hardback Bible on the market today.
Itsy
Bitsy Bibles
Small
enough to slip into a pocket and forget about, these three
tiny Bibles go from compact to miniscule. Compares the ESV
Compact Thinline rebound by LeatherBibles.com, the R. L. Allan's
Cambridge Crystal KJV in goatskin, and the Little Oxford Bible.
Better
Off Red
My
tribute to an all-too-rare classic: the bright red Bible.
This tribute features a series of Cambridge Bibles, including
the single-column REB New Testament, bound in everything from
cowhide to bonded leather.
Inexpensive
Excellence: Crossway's "Portfolio" Thinline ESV
Why
am I singing the praises of a $20 Bible bound in imitation
leather? Because the Portfolio Thinline delivers a lot for
the price, including a cover with the liquid flex of a much
more expensive Bible. The new generation of "faux"
leathers offers exciting possibilities for buyers on a budget.
Marginal
Interest? Why You Need A Wide Margin Bible
The
wide margin Bible is the thinking man's Study Bible -- so
why don't more people want them? I'm going to do everything
in my power to convince you that you can't live another minute
without a wide margin Bible.
Authorized,
Restored & Paragraphed! The New Cambridge Paragraph Bible
I've
campaigned for an edition of the KJV with modern typography,
spelling and punctuation, with a paragraphed, single-column
format -- and now Cambridge has delivered!
Crossway's
TruGlo ESV
Sure,
it glows in the dark. But Crossway's new compact ESV delivers
more than just a gimmick.
Mixed
Message: What
Publishers
Can Learn from The Message Remix
In
spite of all the lip service paid to publishing Bibles that
are accessible to modern readers, I am surprised at how conventional
and traditional the design of Bibles remains. Perhaps I'm
wrong, but I suspect that improvements to design would do
more to aid comprehension than the yearly re-translations
that are now the fashion.
Allan's
Reference ESV
And
that's precisely where the Allan's Reference ESV shines. It
is a pleasure to handle, a pleasure to use. When I open it
and set it on a table, it lays perfectly flat. There is no
arch to the spine, no stiffness to the cover. The Bible settles
onto the tabletop with a liquid quality.
Crossway's
Thinline Cordovan ESV
The
Thinline Cordovan is the best manufacturer "premium"
binding I have ever handled. It takes some risks and they
pay off. As far as I'm concerned, this edition alleviates
the need for re-binding and is the must have Thinline
ESV.
Rebinding
An ESV Thinline
In
2001, Crossway released the English Standard Version, an evangelical
revision of the venerable RSV. The problem: while I admired
the translation, Crossway's production values came nowhere
close to the quality I wanted. So I turned to Mechling Bookbindery
for help.
The
Paragraphed AV
The
Authorized Version of the Bible, popularly known as the King
James Version, is a literary landmark that will never be surpassed
in the English language; but sadly, it is falling out of use.
At least part of the reason, I am convinced, is the antiquated
typography that plagues most editions. So why not publish
an AV in paragraph form? |
