I agree, that would be great of me...however, I'm still convincing my wife that I need another Bible. hehe
Tell her you are buying it as a gift and then change your mind. Women ought to understand how a person can suddenly change their mind. ;)

When are you going to get rid of that horrible "Authorised" Version, and get yourself a God-Honoured 1599 Geneva Bible?^_^ After all, the only reason that the KJV was created was to confound the Puritan understanding and substitute a Church of England understanding for it.

Incidentally, there is now a cheap version --complete with original notes and cross references-- (about $50 US) that has modern spelling. My wife and i both use it. i can give details later if you wish.

Beautiful lettering, why more Bibles do not have more pleasing aesthetics these days where it is so much easier, I do not know, other than reducing costs and paying Koreans a fraction of what it would cost to pay Americans to do the same work.

This. I have a nice KJV Family Bible I received as a gift, it is a treasure I hope to pass down. Gilded edges, illuminated pages, and leather binding, I love that Bible.

Just bought it. I think Geneva was only translation I didn't have until now.
If you could post when you receive it on how it is I would greatly appreciate it! I am ready to pull the trigger on it but would love to hear a detailed review!

Sure, no problem. I believe it is hardback but I will let you know about the binding, paper, script sharpness and anything else I can think of. I want it to last so I hope it worth the money. If not no problem, it ain't like I haven't spent a boat load of money over the years on books.
