So much fun... thanks again for having me!!
It was much fun!
ESV study Bible is the best that I have seen so far. I can say that I will be adding separate commentary books to read once I get into the NT. My first Bible was an NIV Bible, I read it intermittently for over 10 years. The book itself holds a sentimental value so when it started getting pretty beat up I bought a new one, started reading it & then started thinking of all these questions as I was reading. Next thing I know I’m 4 new bibles in & answering a lot of my questions. I have a Zondervan NIV, Crossway ESV, Holman CSB she reads truth, & a Thomas Nelson Women’s Study Bible. Each one has some pretty great differences. But right now the ESV is my go to when the others don’t have what I’m looking for. My ONLY gripe is the text is too small so it gets hard to read when I’m elbow deep in studying.
Highly agreeable
ESV has large print up to 17 font
@@dennisokada9287 I did see that when I was looking for an ESV bible, but I was looking specifically for the Crossway ESV study bible because of the commentary at the bottom and the space around the text. I’m still working in my ESV, just a lot slower than before. I had to learn some discipline to control the enthusiasm I would develop when reading scripture that would cause me to stumble while reading verses.
Listening to this great conversation with my coffee at breakfast, a great way to start the day. So encouraging to learn from you both.
Thank you, Tim➕Tim! This was a joy to watch.
Thanks for arranging this conversation, am watching after the event.. Love both your channels
Thank you Tim’s. Hope to see many more of these great videos.
I use the NKJV New Spirit Filled Life Bible and it has shown me so much I didn’t know. Wouldn’t change for anything. 😊
As far as study Bible, I like the Thompson Chain because it’s not from any theological standpoint. It just lets the Bible speak for itself. I know it’s more of a reference Bible than a study Bible but I like it.
My favourite bible is the Charles Ryrie NASB.
What are your thoughts on Charles Ryrie NASB?
Really enjoyed watching although I had a lot of interruptions from my dog. It was great to see each of your rebinds, faves and other bibles you considered. Very interesting.
Tim/Tim so glad I saw this video 2 days ago as I got my FIRST premium bible today and saw the first two pages glued together halfway and knew it was supposed to be that way thanks to this video!
Zondervan Premium Collection NASB 2020 Text Thinline Bible….Brown Goatskin with gold design gilding. Love it!
This was very entertaining, thank you, Fellers.
Thanx, Tim and Tim. 🌹🌹🌹🌹
My name is Randy from Louisville, Kentucky. Love your knowledge on Bible’s and I love the NKJV ❤
Thank you! This conversation was very interesting.
Great video! So enjoyable. We’re getting really spoilt for bible reviews now. I can remember when there was only the Mark Bertrand Bible Design Blog! Can we have more of these multiple reviews and talks pls. TW: I’m glad I’m not the only person reluctant to write in or mark my Premium Bibles.
PS. Am watching after the live event. Would it be possible to advertise next live talk. As I’m in Oz, I often miss the live chats. 🙏🙏
ESV and CSB for translations. I frequently use my ESV Pastors bible and I use a CSB thin line reference. I have premium quality bibles in both translations also that I use sometimes to preach from.
Rustic Leatherworks did a great job with a rebind for one of my Bibles!
I've found the NKJV Study Bible to be very good (formerly the Nelson Study Bible). I'm not sure why it's always left out of these kinds of discussions but I assume it's because so many want to dismiss the NKJV these days.
I think this bible was out in 1997 and it was perhaps the best Bible on the market. I have the bonded leather from. 2 years ago. ( gave away 2 from the 1990’s), Another very good Nkjv study Bible is the Holman NKJV study bible.
Thank you, this was a nice and helpful conversation.
Glad to hear!
A little late to the video...but what you said Frisch - "When it comes to premium Bibles, it's what it represents to us when we see a beautiful copy of God's Word, we believe that it is a reflection of the beauty of the TRUTH that is contained in it". Well said, and thank you guys for creating a space for Bible geeks like me!
I was surprised that there were no questions about font styles and verse by verse vs paragraph format, single column vs double column. :)
This conversation is very inspiring. God bless you both.
God bless you too!
Good morning bro
Watching in the Philippines
Beautiful bible review
It's coffee time
@arnold ormita, is this your first? From Manila, Philippines here. Been hanging around here for almost since early last year
@@chris12780here in Bangar LA Union Philippines bro
Good evening
@@arnoldormita4378 I see. Hope you also take a look at our channel. You will find what we have here in the Philippines.
@@chris12780 bro if you have extra Bible(KJV) please send me one
Thanks and God bless
@@arnoldormita4378 my apologies that I don't have a Kjv to spare.
I used to collect Bibles too, but I eventually felt like I was making an idol of it so I gave everything away except just a couple
Really enjoyed this video. Thank you so much! It was fun 🙂
Glad you enjoyed it!
Bibles have become my new addiction and I would love to become a bible reviewer, unfortunately I don’t have the fan base to support being a bible reviewer
My first Bibles when I got saved in '84 were both Thompson Chain reference- one the '84 NIV and the other the '77 NAS. Love them to this day! I find the ESV SB a bit much and use that for indepth study. Another I use is the Complete Jewish SB.
Love you guys, both of you have made me spent lots of money on premium bibles😂 but i am happy anyways. May GOD bless you both🙏
Love that ESV Large Print Thinline!! Also dig their Single Column Thinline that's out of print. People complain about paper but it's not really that big an issue. Get these in genuine leather covers and they break in beautifully.
So informative and helpful.
A hundred bibles sitting pretty on shelves are no match for the one being read in your hands 🙏🏼
Rustic Leatherworks rebound my bibles! Michael does fantastic work
I like the CSB, and i love NASB20 Bible for my Word Study. But for reading i think NIV is one of the best.
Allen's bibles are hand made, Tim F. So that's why they're so special. I have the 2 goatskin bibles of theirs: 53 Longprimer in crimson redand the 7C which is the Brevier Clarendon in navy, and both are full yapp.
I've been using a HCSB Minister's Bible since it was first published. It is soft, had gold edges, holds well when I read from it without having a pulpit and the audience has never heard from the Bible before, and is black leather, and single column. When I listen to the HCSB audio Bible at night, I feel like I am going to sleep and God's word comes 'alive' .
You know what would be cool? Perhaps you and other Bible reviewers do a Tier Video ranking the different types of Bibles. Unfortunately the term premium is very broad. It would be cool to see how you would rank a Schuyler or Allan against some of zonservan’s Buffalo leathers or Cambridge vs Humble Lamb. Or how you would rank rebinds, pulpit Bibles, etc. just a thought.
I've ripped two of my favorite Bible's pages with the ribbon. Bibles don't "need" ribbons.
Great great video. Please make more videos together. God bless you.
I have used Emma Brohard- her work is exquisite and solid
Thoroughly enjoyed listening in on your conversation. Thanks. The Bible I'm looking for doesn't seem to exist: CSB, reference, single column, paragraph format. Is there such a version?
2:20 - The Timity
I'm part of The audience three days later!
Unfortunately I missed this when it aired. My favorite Bibles are the Canterbury Clarion NIV and the Schuyler Canterbury KJV. Both of my Bibles are in goatskin. I'm rather spoiled.
do you by chance remember the video you saw where the person tore the glued pages
Do you have a review on....
Lexham English Bible????
Glad I found it but it still isn't showing in your VIDEOS list/ tab
The Clarion ESV is the 2016.
I wonder what Jesus would say about this video. What’s more important the externals or the content?
I really like the CSB but I find their covers not on the same level as other publishers. It is the first translation I own that made me think of rebinds.
I just ordered my first Allan. I got the Brevier Blackface because it has self pronouncing text, the concordance and it’s small. I wonder if just should have got my great grandma’s bible rebound. It might be 100 years old, I’m not sure if the pages are in good enough shape to redo it.
Do you guys like zippered bibles? Schuyler is coming out with a new psq zipper version. But not sure about how it feels like. And whether when reading, the zipper and extra fabric will get annoying.
I cannot understand the disrespect given The MacArthur Study Bible, Tim. The premium Bible he recently put out is beautiful. Even if a person disagrees with him on some things as I do ( as I do the ESV Study Bible, CSB Study Bible and The Biblical Theology Study Bible as well ) they should admit it is a very helpful study Bible. You or your viewers have any idea? Is it they just hate him?
I think the comment about the MacArthur Study Bible from the viewer was said in a spirit of goodwill, like when one teases a friend or is self-deprecating, not meant to be taken as an attack.
It's not overwhelming for me. If it is a King James Bible, it is a good bible.
Mine has been CSB ever before.
Waiting for the leather diadem
WHAT IS THE BEST TRANSLATION A PERSON CAN BUY? i HAVE BEEN TOLD THE NEW AMERICAN STANDARD BIBLE IS THE BEST, BUT I WANTED TO KNOW WHAT YOU THOUGHT BECAUSE YOU HANDLE SO MANY DIFFERENT BIBLES!
I just had a conversation with Mark Ward where we talk about the fact that all translations have usefulness depending on the person and what their needs are. Maybe you will find it helpful. th-cam.com/video/POUHh4MH4To/w-d-xo.html I also suggest going over to Mark Ward's channel, where he covers different translations and what each is best at providing.
I believe the New American Standard Bible is said to be the most accurate. I've used the Revised Standard Bible but, don't like much.
I was born-again back in the mid 70's and ❤ have used the NASB since then.
I love it! Great for memorization.
I wonder if there are ethical issues going into a draw to win a Bible?
Hi, I am so late in sending comments here.
There is way too much talk of externals. I prefer the plain vanilla approach. The conversation should be about translations and less about superficial stuff --how it feels in your hands --the leather etc. You both are going off-track.
The only 'Study Bible' I have is the NET. If one can call it a study Bible. I prefer the text with appropriate footnotes. Commentaries should be kept separate in other books --not wrapped around a translation. But I guess I hold the minority view.
Did you get to the end of the conversation? Something important was mentioned there. Also, check out my conversation from the day before with Mark Ward.
@@AFrischPerspective I only got to 15:28 and was going to resume it later today. I intend to do just that. Maybe I will stand corrected.
Yes, I watched the entire conversation you had with Mark Ward the other day.
@@AFrischPerspective Yep, from 56:15 to the end was good stuff. We in the West have an embarrassment of riches when it comes to the sheer quantities of translations and the plethora of Bible styles --the outer adornments. People from the poorer parts of the world may be blessed to have only the Gospel of John or the four Gospels at most. And there are no frilly wrappings that would entice the reader. They would be so appreciative --to the point of tears to get only a portion of the Word of God in their own language finally.
Would we be content to have only Pew Edition Bible translations? That's what it really comes down to.
If certain folks can afford to have a luxurious $100.00 Bible translation maybe they can see the need of the marginalized folks of the world and donate to Biblica or some such organization so that the unreached are able to secure at least scores of New Testaments in their native tongue with no goatskin covers.
@@timcarr6401 Amen, in the wealth God has granted us, we must always seek the good of those in need.
What about Dakes bible
Ohio here
I have 10 cheap bibles I use together, yes I should've got a interlinear bible maybe, truth is I got addicted to buying bibles. Actually to be really really truthful, I would buy a bible to compensate for my drug addiction failures. Yes I would fall (fail/screw up) then on my way home I would buy a bible to make the pain subside, pretty messed up. Yes I'm an idiot and yes now I have an extensive library of bibles and study bibles, and boxes of other book by various Authors most of which are sleeping. Needless to say I have failed a lot and my collection is wrought with ill feelings from the sheer hypocrisy to which their constant use only amplifies. The light of my darkness is of a sickening blindness. Don't be like me, pointless good deeds DON'T win favour with God. 'Lord, Lord...?' is not a good place to be (mt7:21-23).
Yay, I'm out here!
Ripping the edge line gluing is soooo cringe!!!!
KJV Bible believer
Ryrie NASB 77 study bible. STUDENT bible 1984 NIV.
Jeremiah 8 8 ' scribes falsified the Bible with their lying pens ' why bother
They wrote some lies about the Torah. The Bible we have now, it's all doctrinally connected and cohesive. There is fulfilled prophecy in Ezekiel and Daniel. If we can trust those books, why not the others. The entire Bible is centered around Jesus, whom we know lived and died and rose. The early Christians stuck to the big three doctrinal points of Christianity:
Diety of Christ
Death of Christ
Resurrection of Christ
These fit with the New Testament teachings. God wants us to share His word to the world. He's not going to let the thing be corrupted into something false. We see man's fall, sin in a corrupted world, the savior redeeming, and news of salvation ready for gifting. That's history, that's God's word, and although we bicker on secondary issues, the main message has been kept, because God implied it would, and I trust God.
it doesn't matter which bible they use . It's all on the teaching. They teach doctrines of men and not from the bible . Trinity. Hellfire. Immortality of the soul are doctrines of men
Tim Wildmansmith, why did you ruin your skin by covering your arms with tatoos? that being said, I love your cover to your CSB Bible.
