Good News Translation New Testament . June 27, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I feel that this NT is excellent for the beginner and for those who need to brush up on the Bible. It is written is such a way that it is easy to understand but yet you recieve the meaning of the message it is bringing to you. Mainly for the beginner although I am not a beginner and found it to be a refeshing read.

Good News Bible in Large Print May 8, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I ordered this Bible as my sight seems to be declining. It is layed out exactly as the regular print, except it is larger in size and the bigger print - works great for me. Matter of fact, I bought a second for a family member.
Good News Bible Large Print Edition April 5, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This Bible falls midway between being a literal (word-for-word) translation and one which uses the dynamic equivalent (modernizing and contextualizing a word or phrase) method. The reading level is suitable even for children and helps the message to come alive for everyone rather than being partially concealed by traditionalist/archaic wording. The typeface is very legible even in low light, but I actually miss the line drawings in other editions. The binding is paperback and there is no more-substantially bound large print edition available. This translation has the advantage of an exhaustive separate concordance being available, at least via the United Kingdom, unlike a number of other contemporary translations. I would rate this item as five except for the insubstantial binding and lack of drawings as well as some of the study helps in other editions of this translation.
THE BEST TRANSLATION YET, FOR REGULAR READING January 24, 2008 3 out of 8 found this review helpful
This is the best translation, for reading the Bible and not necessarily studying it. The line drawings are very interesting and compelling. This is the best NT I have ever come across. I highly recommend it. It is also very good as an evangelistic tool, to give someone this edition, whether a new believer or a believer who does not read the Bible too much because he or she gets bogged down in the formal language occasionally used. Nothing even remotely like this translation.
