I got the blue calfskin one a few weeks ago from CBD. Beautiful Bible! For those who liked or wanted the Intouch Notetakers Bible (the Bible Charles Stanley used and designed and is out of print) this Bible is a almost perfect replica but this one is red letter which I prefer. This is a great Bible illustration because using!
Thank you for reviewing these. Zondervan / Thomas Nelson continue to be my "go to" publisher because you receive so much bang for the $$ buck $, primarily with their choice of paper selection and line match. I have never been disappointed with their Bibles.
Looking forward to this! Been wanting a wide margin nasb, but I'm a little concerned it'll be too heavy/large to carry around... Can't wait to watch your review to help decide!
Great video once again Tim! Two thoughts came to my mind: 1. This is like having a very updated In-Touch NASB; which is a dream! 2. It’s like they took their Thompson and removed all of the margin data. Really excited about this one!
Love the blue calf, great margins. "Genuine leather" used to mean pigskin. To paraphrase Bones McCoy from Star Trek, "Darn it, Jim, it's a Bible, not a football!" Maybe suggest they clarify that in their stamping, Tim; if I didn't know better, I would ass-u-me it's pig and give it a pass, football pun intended. Anyway, glad to see it's a pastedown; that binding style is perfect for wide margin editions that should be open flat on a desk or table for neat note-taking; pastedown facilitates that. Also like that the paper is 36 gsm, which is the minimum any Bible designed for note-taking should be, also imo. Anything less, use a Micron 005. Use a Micron 005 anyway; you'll thank me later. Anyway, the only thing I would change is matte finish on the maps; more durable, no glare. My wonky eyeballs can't read red letter except in very bright light, but I'd only purchace an NASB as a gift and my current nasby buddies all prefer red letter. I know one of them is on WideMarginQuest 2024 and I will let him know this is a great choice. Thanks for another great review, Sir.
theyre gorgeous!! thank you so much for this review!! But I was confused by your comment that this was calfskin but has genuine leather on the back. Is calfskin imitation leather? I am clearly very new to premium Bibles - but I guess this is not considered one? I was considering the calfskin because all my previous imitation leather Bibles eventually start to flake and degrade. I wanted to buy a Bible that would last for a long long time - but is the quality btwn the 2 types not worth the price difference?
36 GSM paper: win. Full concordance and maps: win. Non reference= epic fail. Still waiting for a NASB 95 full reference Bible with all the features above. I have one each NASB 95 and ESV with large print, “decent” paper, no references for “readers,” but it’s extremely rare when I have a Bible in my hands that I don’t look up a reference or wish IT HAD THEM!!! Trying to be patient and wait for the genuine classic reference Bible to return and find favor again😞
Not omitted… the translation is based on a different Greek text. You could just as easily argue that the KJV has extra verses that aren’t original to the Bible.
For us senior citizens on a limited budget, I appreciate the Zondervan makes this bible in an affordable leather soft edition

Lovely bibles and I love the NASB1995!
Great point about the paste down being sturdier. Never knew that.
Good for note taking the wide margins.
That paper is nice and print is very clear !
I love the NASB 95...may have to order the blue calf skin. Thanks for the video.

This Bible would be a good devotional Bible for me as I like to write how God is speaking to me in the margins
Great video once again Tim!

This is really nice. Thanks!
Thank you Tim😍😍😍😍😍
Thank you, Brother Tim 🌹⭐🌹
This one like the similar NIV look like the TCR without the notes and references
Very nice Bible. Well done.🎉
Currently using the NIV version the paper is great . The NASB may be in my future, 😊
These look great. I do hope they'll make an NASB 2020 in this format.
I love the NASB! I've been impressed with the Korean printings. I only wish there were more paragraph formats.
This looks perfect. Can’t wait to get this soon.
Good morning! Joined late....
1995 and wide margin. I’m in
I wish this had been released before I bought a NASB95 Wide Margin Quentel and filled it with notes for over a year. 😅
Love the blue calf, great margins.

I wish I could find a wide margin just like this in a NKJV
The NKJV sovereign collection by Nelson has a nice wide margin
Hope you can do a review of Holman’s NASB Single Column ps bible in tan leather soon! I pre-ordered it but the release is in Aug. 😢
So they now have a WM in this layout in ESV, NIV and now NASB95, when in the world are we gonna get a NKJV with this same layout?
Nelson sovereign collection has a nice wide margin nkjv.
But the quality is trash and the paper isn't the same as this...@@jc_rogers
Where is this layout for NKJV or kjv?
In the Sovereign Collection WM
Paper lined in the synthetic ?
Would it be about the same size as the Zond NASB SCR bible but thinner?
That's right.
beautiful bibles

It's calfskin... which is genuine leather.
La più resistente è😁😁😁 pelle🐂 di bufalo!!😁😁😁@@timwildsmith
How thick is the measurement on this bible?
1.5"
Thank you
Pretty much not bad on ghosting?
Looks good to me!

Typically, I just use my premium MacArthur Study Bible but there are times I want all the full features of a reference Bible but without the notes.
The NASB has at least 16 verses omitted & edited compared to the KJV. Ill stick with the KJV.
Not omitted… the translation is based on a different Greek text. You could just as easily argue that the KJV has extra verses that aren’t original to the Bible.
🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤 wow.
🤣🤣🤣
Great Video, Tim! 1995 Zondervan NASB Wide Margin Bibles. 🦬 🌲🌲🌲
