LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this Bible!! January 9, 2007

After reading and studying many resources, and coming to the conclusion that the KJV Bible was the one for me, but also knowing that the language can sometimes be difficult to understand, I turned to this Bible. I LOVE it!! It is SO helpful in better understanding the Truth of God's Word and applying it to my life.
The Life Application notes are encouraging and challenging, and the book introductions, outlines, theme descriptions, timelines, and important facts and verses help to really understand what each book of the Bible is about. Plus, I love the People Profiles and helpful charts and maps throughout.
Top that all off with the beautiful presentation of the brown and tan leather-like cover, this Bible is my all-time favorite!!

kjv 1611- the only bible February 21, 2008

First of all, I am not persuaded by any man/company's claim of being able to simplify The Word of God.
I have done the research and found the King James Version "KJV' Bible to be the CLOSEST THING TO THE ORIGINAL Hebrew Scriptures. This is the book that men were burned for printing and preaching. All other versions are simply copy-cat bibles produced out of greed and attempt to translate the KJV (its is already in English!). Any further versions take away from the original translation/meaning.
The KJV work was began by William Tyndale in the early 1500s. He began to create a translation of Catholic scriptures into book form so anyone could read the word. His translations were seen as a threat to Catholic powers governing the scriptures. Preists were the only ones that could interpret the word for common people at the time. After his death, his work reached King James, which in turn ordered scholarly research and translation of the scriptures for mass publication.
The task was the most intensive effort ever undertaken to translate the scriptures and involved 52 of the worlds best scholars. The authenticity and meaning was only recorded when all were in agreement. The KJV Bible was finished in 1609, but became mass produced in 1611 ( Known as King James 1611) These men were never paid for their work and the original publishers only received a small portion to cover materials.
No other bible can make this claim, therefore, I DO NOT RECOMMEND ANY NEWER VERSION THAT TAKES AWAY FROM THE ORIGINAL KJV MEANING/ SCRIPTURE. (Ex.NIV,NKJV)
If one does not understand the KJV 1611, simply buy a bible with help notes. The life application bible does just this. It PRESERVES THE ORIGINAL text while adding interpretation and notes for guidance. This bible goes further by provides summary information and background on each book such as :the author, when it was written, where, and to whom. There are also maps, cross references, biblical conversions and more.
This bible pretty much has it all and is very user friendly. It is produced in hard back/leather tutone/large print/ and several sizes. (paper back is the cheapest version).
Excellent but I have nothing to compare it to March 1, 2008

Hello Amazon Shoppers,
I recently started to repent and make an extensive study on the Bible in the same way I did for Mathematics. And I was on Amazon and decided to buy myself a Study Bible. I can honestly say I bought unconsciously the PERFECT GUIDE. For each book, the author gives you a outline of what you are about to read, the main character in the story, his or her weakness and strenght, and a timeline graph of what happened during that time in the world. I just open the study bible and on the first page I learned something new. Moses wrote the book of Genesis. Wow...I feel stupid!!!!!
Anyways great book, I'm happy with my purchase and I would recommend it to newcomers even if I dont have any other study bible to compare it with.
But before I forget, let me say I had to use a International King James Version I believe to understand the language. Becuase sometimes I get lost in Psalms and Proverbes.

I already have one of these Life Application Study Bibles. My mom visited and she really liked the references and history in it, so I though I'd get it for her. I love that the cover is 2 toned.
