 | Very pleased! May 14, 2008 |
| I was very pleased when I bought this bible. Not only do I like the ESV translation but I enjoy the feel of the cover. I know some people have complained about the cover not being stitched to the backing but the cover is very supple and, unless you tend to fold the cover back while reading, it should be just fine. The backing and the cover seem to move together without one feeling like it will pull away from the other. I am sure that there could be the occasional cover that separates from the backing but I have dealt with three of these now, all for different purposes and none of them have given me any problems in that sense and they do not simply sit on a bookshelf. One is the bible that I carry with me in my shoulder bag to work as well as for trips and one is the Bible I try to read on a nightly basis and for church services as well as studies so they do get used. However, I would put this under normal use and not heavy use. Hope this helps those that are trying to make a decision. On an aesthetic note, I appreciate the intricate designs on the covers! | | |  | Not bad, but could be better Dec 13, 2007 |
English Standard Version (ESV, a revision of RSV) is a fine translation. And my review here is not about the version, but the quality of the physical Bible itself. Overall, it is good, but not great.
1. While it is not leather, it is a fine imitation leather (TruTone). It is soft and flexible. As for its durability, imitation leathers fall in somewhere between genuine leather and hardcover. But it also depends on the user.
2. It is NOT Smyth Sewn binding (stitched). Pages are glued to the spine. This is one of the weakness of the Bible. Comparable King James Reference Bible is Smith Sewn and so is Ultrathin Reference Bible-NASB and they are cheaper than this ESV Bible.
3. While the font is readable, the darkness of the font is not evenly printed. For example, the print in page 1202 (Philemon) is darker than the print in page 1203 (Hebrews). And there are more pages with this minor problem. Now, it is possible that only my copy has this anomaly, but I doubt it.
Overall it is a good Bible but the quality could be better. | | | | love it! May 7, 2007 |
| I love the ESV translation and I love the durability of the cover! I love the smaller size of this Bible and I love not having commentaries all over the place!! Wonderful references. | | | | Highly Recommended Apr 5, 2007 |
| I highly recommend this Bible. The ESV in my oppinion, is the best translation. It stays true to it's original meaning and is also easy to read and flows well. This Bible also contains cross-references, a great concordance, and maps, which will help you as you study the Word. This is a great Bible to give to unbelievers, new believers, or believers looking for an accurate translation. May God bless you as you pursue great affections for Him. | | | Write your own review about ESV Classic Reference Bible-RL-Charcoal/Celtic Tru
