MEV Bible Giant Print Black Indexed: Modern English Version Imitation Leather – Large Print, September 6, 2016

This bible is great. It isn't a travel bible, but it is great to have around and reference. Multiple page markers are great, the illustrations and descriptions add to the bible well. Very happy. It ties in well with the manual for spiritual warfare which is also great.

I will begin reviewing this Bible with an assertion of its outright beauty and durable construction. It is well bound and the imitation leather grey cover is attractive. It is weighty both in size and in overall content. The articles on spiritual warfare are informative and the artwork is a great additional bonus. As someone else reviewed; I do not find the repetition of the content from Thigpen's manual to be a negative. I have Thigpen's manual in digital format and it actually will make a great prayer guide to go with daily readings. I love the fact that it does contain explanatory notes, a guide of daily readings and topical in the appendices of the volume.Now, for a few very minor flaws that are worth mentioning but by no means deal-breakers. First, the font is light for these old eyes and I would like a darker print. Explanatory notes are endnotes as opposed to footnotes, which makes them less convenient in course of reading, and they are in a miniscule font that is challenging to read. The Bible does not have a map section and I would have appreciated an introductory section prior to each book with critical info and observation, but being as I have plenty of that info elsewhereit is not a major drawback. As I said, none of these are strong enpugh to present any downgrade in recommendation. I am much more pleased with it than with the Ignatius Press Bible for instance.All of this being said, I applaud this Bible for its inherent, inviting beauty and its informative amd worthwhile content. Words of Christ in red is a plus as is the RSV-2CE translation. I believe this will be my daily go to Bible for inspirational reading and contemplation, especially Lectio Civina reading, which is why I bought it. It is a worthy companion to Thigpen's Manual of Spiritual Warfare and a truly wonderful Bible for any Catholic serious about his or her faith. I fail to see how anyone could be disappointed with this purchase if they are looking for a solid Catholic paper Bible. I give it a most hearty recommendation.

There are great reviews here about this Bible, and I coincide with them. I gave this Bible to my husband on his 2nd anniversary of ordination as a Permanent Deacon. I noticed that he actually used it a lot, even more than the other gazillion versions of the Bible we have in our house (we both studied Theology and teach Bible classes in our diocese). I decided to read my husband's Bible for few days and I found it to be wonderful for spiritual reading! We have many Study Bibles with comments and footnotes and I noticed that sometimes my spiritual reading of the Bible becomes sidetracked and turns more into a Bible study, because for me it is inevitable to look down to read the additional information in the footnotes. Don't get me wrong, I love study Bibles! The thing is that this one has little to no footnotes, which makes it perfect for me to take it, for example, to Holy Hours. I can just sit there and let the text speak to me in front of the Blessed Sacrament. I can do Lectio Divina and really focus on the text. There is a time for everything. Bible study is one thing, Bible reading for prayer is a different story. This one has become my favorite Bible for prayerful reading!Now, for more technical aspects concerning this product, the text is of my preferred translation of the Bible in English (RSV-CE 2nd edition), it is beautifully presented in dark gray imitation pebbled leather, with silver-gilded pages and three black ribbons to mark your readings. See my pictures for the dimensions of the product. I think that the size of the font is 10pt, which makes it very easy on the eyes. The color of the pages is a nice off-white (when the pages are too bright, it hurts my eyes, specially when I am reading outdoors). There is very little bleeding from the text in the back of the pages. The texture of the pages feels great to the touch. Throughout the Bible you will find inserts from the Spiritual Warfare Manual by Paul Tighten. These are printed in full-color in glossy paper. So, starting with the Bible translation, to the looks and the feel of the Bible and the inserts on spiritual warfare, this Bible is a great choice for either personal reading or for a gift. You can not go wrong with this Bible! It deserves all the stars!

This Bible is lovely. The Spiritual Warfare books is interspersed with lovely photos. The font is so easy to read an absolutely beautiful Bible.

When things seems so out of the realm of understanding . I turned to a different source . This gave me comfort and a better understanding of spiritual things. Surprised the church is still so deep into this . It is not a secret behind doors. Look for it you will find it.

A great reward to anyone who studies the Word of God with spiritual discernment, wisdom, understanding and application!

Es una Biblia en inglés con cubierta de goma rugosa. Sigue la traducción estándar, y es de formato bastante grande.Lo que la hace especial es que tiene nueve insertos extraídos de la obra "Manual for Spiritual Warfare" de Paul Thigpen, que ponen en relación el contenido de la Sagrada Escritura con el combate espiritual. No obstante, el formato de dicho manual es de bolsillo, y esta Biblia es bastante grande.Su adquisición hace innecesaria la compra del manual que, por otra parte, se queda un poco pobre comparado con el manual del método "Liber Christo".

To wydanie Biblii jest genialne. Zakochałam sie od pierwszego wejrzenia. Użyteczne komentarze, krótkie modlitwy,szczegółowe informacje, absolutnie konieczna pozycja dla każdego wierzącego, nie tylko zaangażowanego w modlitwę uwalniania. Rewelacja!

“and that since childhood you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise unto salvation through the faith that is in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is inspired by God and is profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.”‭‭2 Timothy‬ ‭3:15-17‬ ‭MEV‬‬First and foremost, this is the Holy and inspired Word of God, and as mentioned in a previous review, the translators have done an excellent job in updating the KJV with a Modern English language.The Bible itself feels nice in your hand, the paper and edges are quality and the writing is clear.I enjoy reading this Holy Bible.Great for home devotional reading.
