I recommend this bible.
I've been loving it.( Last purchased Jun 21, 2022). It's so nice, that im picking it up to read it more. Which is a GREAT thing!!.Had I known it was in paragraph format, and not in verse by verse format, I would have purchased two. I like the paragrah format better than the verse by verse format.Since i wasn't aware of this (nothing in the discription said so), I not only got this one, I aslo purchased Single Column version which is in pragraph format as well. They both are superb Bibles, but the latter is just thicker for obvious reasons.The font is really good. THREE ribbons, and praise the Lord, NO JESUS WORDS IN RED!!!! It's all black lettering. I REALLY like that!!. The goat's skin cover is very soft, binding and pages , surperb, and handles well.It looks like this Bible will last me a long time.

Best Nelson Bible to date
The black goatskin is very beautiful, the gilding is gold with a reddish hue reminiscent of Bibles that are alot more expensive. The font size is just right. (I wear glasses) Nelson is right about the comfort print, IT IS ACTUALLY MORE COMFORTABLE TO READ THAN OTHER BIBLES. How is that accomplished with a font? I don't know, BUT IT IS!My only con has been mentioned by other reviewers and that is: a Bible that is separated by paragraphs and not verses should have verse numbers stand out. (See pic.) (Bold, different color, underlined etc...)this is a minor con to me.Buy this Bible! You won't be disappointed! How do I know? Because I returned 5 Bibles to Amazon in the past 2 weeks before I found this one!

An exquisite premium Bible that’s gorgeous in every way.
I tried hard, but in the end, I couldn't resist ordering one of the Thomas Nelson Premier Collection New King James Version (NKJV) Large Print Thinline (LPT) Reference Bibles from Amazon for the unbelievably low price of $70. I ordered it last Wednesday, and it arrived yesterday. I immediately fell in love with it. Simply put, this is an exquisite premium Bible that’s gorgeous in every way.I found a whole lot to love about my new Nelson Premier Collection NKJV LPT Bible. It has a buttery-soft goatskin cover that is soft, supple, and has a beautiful grain. You can easily see the natural variances in the leather, anomalies that make each Bible unique. The cover also has beautifully precise perimeter stitching and quite a generous yapp that is designed to protect the stunningly gorgeous red-under-gold art gilding. Of course, this Bible has an edge lining, which is far superior to the more common (and cheaper) paste-down linings. The lining is calfskin and has a gold stamped gilt line around the inside perimeter. The Bible also has three good quality 3/8-inch (two black, one red) satin ribbons.This Bible features the Thomas Nelson NKJV typeface, which is a “Comfort Print” font designed by 2K/Denmark. The box says the font is 11-point, but in reality, I think it may be a bit smaller than that. Still, it's very easy on my eyes, and a joy to read. The page layout is wonderful. I especially like the red page and paragraph headers, page numbers, chapter numbers, and reference pilot numbers, all printed in a dark, easy to read red. The words of Jesus are printed in black, which I prefer.The box describes the text block paper as "Premium European Bible paper, 36 gsm,” and I believe it. It's without question the finest quality paper I've ever seen in a Bible. It’s thick, durable, and wonderfully opaque – there’s almost no ghosting anywhere.Other features include references located at the bottom of each page, mixed in with footnotes. There’s also a good concordance and eight brightly colored maps in the back; however, I don't see anything exceptional about the maps... they seem like pretty standard fare to me.The Thomas Nelson Premier Collection NKJV LPT Bible earns my highest recommendation.

Beautiful Bible
I bought this black NKJV bible for my husband, specifically to use in church - new thin line with the larger print (comfort font) it is great. Our pastor teaches directly from the word and is fast going to multiple scriptures & books - the thumb tabs help to keep up. Red letter two bookmark straps - really a great bible.To the man that said the pages were mixed up between Deuteronomy & Numbers you must have received a bad reject in error. The bible I received is chapter & verse correct. I purposefully compared to a different publisher and NIV to review. All there. Maybe if you read this give specific scriptures to help. But maybe your clever way to get people to read the richness of Old Testament.I recommend this bible - soft to touch well made for the price

NICE BIBLE BUT PRINT WAS A DEAL BREAKER FOR ME
Let me start by saying this is a very nice Bible, made of some high quality materials.However, two aspects were a negative for me.First, The goatskin leather, though of great quality, could’ve used a bit more support, IMHO. This bible would’ve been a bit unwieldy trying to hold with one hand while reading from the pulpit. Not only that, but after holding the Bible no more than 8 or 12 times, the very soft leather now has an indent in the back where my thumb supported the Bible while holding with one hand.Secondly, the print, at least for MY sixty-four year old, diabetic, cataracts—in—the—making eyes, could’ve been another two sizes or so larger, and perhaps with bold verse numbers.But, as others have said, for the price, it is a very well made Bible. It’s just that, as a preaching pastor, I increasingly gravitate toward Bibles with readable print. Granted, to an extent, that’s a relative phrase: “readable print.” I mean, just ten years ago or less, this Bible would’ve been just fine. But, alas, as a great theologian once said, “I ams what I ams.”So, long story short, I am returning the Bible. But, thankfully another Nelson NKJV is working out quite well for my preaching needs: The NKJV Preaching Bible. Ample line spacing, larger, quite readable print, and fairly decent material quality. Oh, and also, colored chapter and verse numbers.That said, Cambridge may be the blue ribbon winner for me in the long run, with their Topaz line. Will probably be my next Bible purchase down the road.But that’s a review for another day.

This Bible shouts "QUALITY!"
This truly is a beautiful Bible. Even the box it comes in suggests quality. On taking the Bible out of the box and removing the paper wrapper, the first thing that struck me was the sheer premium quality of the goatskin Bible. It’s a joy simply to hold this Bible. The cover is soft, supple and feels great.The print size and type really are clear and easy to read. The pages are crisp and of very good quality and haver that nice “Bible paper” sound.Passage references are at the bottom of the page, and there is a generous 38-page concordance at the back, with some nice colour maps. There is some bleeding of the text so that you can see the text from the other side of the page seeping through, but it is by no means a distraction at all.The Bible, even though brand new, does lay mostly flat, though the first few pages do lift up. However, I am sure, as employees at Grace Bros. would tell you, the pages will “ride down with wear”.Quality binding and three generous satin book markers.No other way to put it; this really is a Bible the exudes premium quality.

Brilliant Bible with issues- BookinMail Excellent sellers
Thomas Nelson have made a beautiful Bible. But they really need someone checking text. As my first copy had printing errors. Chapter were numbered wrongly. BookinMail the seller were excellent and replaced it quickly they deserve 5 stars. The Bible is lade out beautifully and the goatskin is amazing and the ribbons are very high quality. It's the errors that let this down.

Stunning
My husband absolutely loves this Bible - he loves the two column layout, the feel of the paper, the size and readability of the font, and the tactile feel of the gorgeous floppy goatskin cover. Beautiful.
