Summary: Truly Inspired!
Review: I've read the Bible over and over and remain ever-amazed at the "life" of this book. Considering how the Bible was written over such a long period of time, it is amazing it how it all hangs together. It is truly inspired by the Living God through the hands of men. This is a book you can bank your life on. Read a good, modern translation of it. I read The One Year Bible every year.

Summary: Awaiting a sequel

Summary: The original KJV
Review: It's nice having because it contains the complete King James Version of the bible as it was originally translated and published. It is one of only two published editions of the complete KJV that I have been able to find. Very few people seem to realize that the KJV included the books of the Apocrypha.I wish that they made this available in a hardcover without the Michelangelo on the cover though.

Summary: excellent KING JAMES BIBLE, and the Apocrypha is a BIG PLUS!
Review: Like the other reviewers of this Bible, I too agree that having the Apocrypha was a treat. Any true KING JAMES BIBLE fan, knows that the Apocrypha was included in the 1611 edition. That's basically the only reason I bought this Bible. It's also a true King James Bible, because the spelling hasn't been updated, i.e. "broided" changed to "braided" (1 Tim 2:9), and "cloke" changed to "cloak" (Isa. 59:17), etc. I recommend this Bible, because it's one of the last KING JAMES BIBLE's that is the closest to the 1611 KJV. Modern Bible publishing companies are making very "subtle" changes to our beloved KJV's, that most people don't know about. I also highly recommend buying an authentic 1611 EDITION of the KING JAMES BIBLE, from Thomas Nelson or Hendrickson publishers. A real valuable and great buy, and it's pretty cheap.

Summary: A Complete KJV at an inexpensive price
Review: This edition of the King James Bible is quite a value, both in price and in content. First, it is an inexpensive paperback, allowing those of limited means to enjoy the Bible in the classic language of the King James Version. Second, it includes the complete canon of the King James Bible as translated in 1611. Virtually all modern editions of the KJV fail to include the Apocrypha. This edition remedies that defect, rendering this edition suitable for use by Protestants, Anglicans, Roman Catholics, and eastern Orthodox Christians, as well as others who may want access to all the literature which Christians of various stripes consider to be scripture. This Bible also contains a brief appendix including helpful information on Bible history and on the various books which make up the Bible. A great Bible at a great price!

Summary: Excellent yet secular edition
Review: This edition presents the famous King James translation of the Bible wrapped in a scholarly and quite secular package. The book starts with an introduction to the history of the biblical canon as well as the history of the King James translation. The fact that the edition is liberal shows through when they do not talk of the KJV as some inerrant truth but as an excellent yet flawed and ideological. Then, the entire KJV is reproduced with its well-known features: an introduction which describes the spirit and method of the translation, a summary of the each page's contents at the top and an interesting rendering of words which were inserted by the translators to make the reading more smooth in italics. This edition includes the Apocrypha (the books that were considered deutorocanonical and eventually removed from the KJV Bible) - another feature that the more religious readers may find objectionable. However, to present a scholarly overview of the Bible, this is a must, especially as the Apocrypha is almost the length of the New Testament. To portray historic continuity, the Apocrypha is placed in between the two testaments. The volume ends with notes on each book in the Bible, in the order of this edition. It is here that the naturalistic and historical point of view is best seen. However, religious readers will find plenty of points of interest here as well. Due to the completeness of the edition, it's almost like a stand-alone intellectual presentation of the Bible. Great value as there's so much content and unless you're a very devout believer this edition is perfect!
