Douay-Rheims Holy Bible

I'm very pleased with this Bible. Its pages are thin but not too thin were you worry about tears since you should be treating it with a careful respect anyway (the alternative would be a much thicker/heavier book, the size is perfect without being too big/small). Most importantly the text is readable which was my biggest concern. Delivery to the UK was very quick (much quicker than expected). The attached picture/s is with an A5 book alongside.The reason for only 4 stars is what others have pointed out, the inside cover pages, white with garish blue crosses, it really takes away from a beautifully made book. It would have been classier and perhaps simpler to use plain black pages with a small gold Cross? I honestly can't fathom why they chose such an awful inside cover? Having said that; I still highly recommend and I'm considering getting the pages recovered myself, thats how much I love this book. Now I'm looking into buying the Haydock's version because I would love to read his highly recommended commentary.The world is going through some really awful and challenging times for every Country. Keep the faith not only in God but in humanity people, we got this however dire 'they' are trying to make it. We have all suffered enough death and destruction through wars and famines, let's not add to that toll, stay safe!✌

Lovely bible and very good quality - very happy with this purchase.

The quality of this book is fantastic. The print is large and easy to read and the overall size of the book is good. The pages aren't flimsy either, so not transparent, which is great. This version was printed in 2018 but first published in 1941 by the The Douay Bible House and has been known as the Confraternity Bible version. Updated again from Bishop Challoner's early work and still including his footnotes, it just modernises the language a little more. There are still lots of older words such as thee and thou and saith etc. , but no long s that looks like an f in words. So if you want something more modern another Bible is probably for you.

El encuadernado es de muy alta calidad, el papel es relativamente grueso para tratarse de una Biblia, la letra es de muy buen tamaño y fácil de leer

Exceptional quality. Good reprint of a classic, beautiful, and holy edition.
