Adult Bible Study December 4, 2007
This bible is great for bible study even when everyone in the group is an adult. The sidebars add interesting facts that we may not have obtained otherwise.
Catholic Youth Bible RSV November 14, 2007
A nice bible but transcribed in a version that is supposed to make for a better understanding. Good reading but not to be used for "quoting from the bible". The extra pages of explaination are great. I think a person could pick this up and find lots of interesting facts besides the bible itself. The pages are pretty thin if you want to highlight or mark in this book it would come thru the other side of the page. I would recommend this bible for casual reading and a good way to "get in touch" with bibical readings.
I love mine! August 30, 2007
our church bought each of us who were confirmated this Bible....its in "english" so you can actually understand what they're talking about, it has some great connections to modern life so you can bring the Bible into the twenty-first century. it also has some great prayres, things to think about, and even some other tips....this is the only Bible i'll read!
