Easy To Read - Great Notes

As a new Episcopalian I bought this particular Bible because it contains the Apocrypha and because some reviewers said it is easy to read. I received it and discovered that it is a very nice edition with great pictures, footnotes, very easy to read type and layout. This may be the easiest Bible to read I have ever found! The dictionary, doctrinal bible index and study helps are all very nice. I hope it holds together well, because I think I will be using this Bible as my everyday Bible.

very satisfied!

I received this book very quickly, I loved it! It is exactly as described! What a great deal ... Thank you.

The best I've found so far

This is my old high school Religion class bible. I think its a wonderful bible not only for the young person but anyone who likes an easy to read version with great footnotes. I now own a number of different bibles but I keep returning to this one because I love the language used in it. One of my favorite passages and accompanying footnote is in John 20:6-8, when the apostles enter the tomb of Jesus and "...observed the wrappings on the ground and saw the piece of cloth which had covered the head not lying with the wrappings but rolled up in a place by itself..." I love this passage as it is, but the footnote goes on to say that "...There was some special feature about the state of the burial wrappings that caused the beloved disciple to believe. Some suggest that Jesus had passed through them without their being unrolled..." This just adds to my love and appreciation for Sacred Scripture; I think this would be an excellent "first" bible for someone or for the person who just wants to know more.
