Rating:  Summary: Simple, Clean, Useful Review: I await the Platinum edition of this Bible. I bought the Gold edition and found it simple, straitforward and easy to use. The gold edition is bonded leather however and very thin at that. The typeface is generous. If you highlight with yellow magic marker, there is bleed through to the next page but it is liveable. I chose a reference Bible after owning numerous study Bibles. Annotations found in Study Bibles are good at various stages of growth, but reference Bibles force more independant study: allowing the cross reference and concordance use to let the Bible be it's own comentary. It's harder to dig for yourself, but the manna that God's Word gives you is your own, not merely the opinion of the annotator. While many good people have annotated a number of study Bibles, sometimes the notes point you in doctrinal directions and away from discovery on your own. If you can, buy both types and glean from the annotations, then dig in using the reference Bible and let God lead you in what he wants to reveal and teach.
Rating:  Summary: The KJV by Zondervan Review: I like this Holy Bible because it does not have the pagan symbols the Nelson and other publishing companys place on and in the Bible. The trinity can't be proved. The cross was a tool of death. Idols of the cross, the fish, the trinity and many other symbols are to be avoided if we are to worship the true Jesus Christ. The modern translations i.e. NIV and RSV are not the word of God! Do a comparision and you will find it so. It does matter which Bible you read. TP
