The Good Book February 25, 2006 3 out of 7 found this review helpful
I bought this book as a gift..and the person I bought it for was very happy with it.
Beautifully simple August 20, 2004 46 out of 47 found this review helpful
This translation of the Bible is written in a way that is very easy to understand. It is not merely a "re-wording" of a previous translation (such as the NKJV), but is a translation that was created to be both true to the original Greek/Hebrew/Aramaic texts and also easy to follow. It is written at approximately a 7th grade reading level--not meaning it is aimed at a younger audience (as are some translations), but that it can easily be understood by all.
I received my first GNB in the 9th grade, and even though I'm all grown up now and use primarily the NKJV for my studies, I still occasionally return to this Bible to help me get a better understanding of a text that is otherwise difficult for me. (I like to dig into ALL of the Word, not just the "easy" stuff.)
This Bible, in my opinion, would be PERFECT for one who is unfamiliar with some of the "thickness" of the NKJV language, such as someone who is new to their faith or someone who does not hold English as their first language.
I think that this is a very valuable study tool, and would honestly recommend it to anyone.
Great Bible December 10, 2003 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
This is just what someone needs for overseas ministries. I like the size of the print, easy to read, and easy for Spanish speaking people to understand. I am buying more to take with me on my next trip to Central America.
Not a Catholic Bible February 9, 2003 22 out of 33 found this review helpful
If you are looking for a Catholic Bible, this is not the one for you. This Bible does not include the Deuterocanonicals/Apocrypha.
Easy to read Bible August 18, 2002 15 out of 15 found this review helpful
I find this to be the closest English version compared to that of the King James Bible.This Bible is very closely written to what the King James scriptures read and it is very easy to understand, I have to buy another one because mine is falling apart....if you decide to buy this..get the hardback! God Bless You
