  • Wow. So I received on Sunday an advance copy of the new Topaz, here in my hands. Quite unexpectedly but very welcome! I have had a chance to do some readings from it today and I can confirm that this is an excellent Bible, a pleasure to read and use.
    I will be putting the Topaz on the website very soon to purchase, watch this space!
    I hope you find the video interesting and useful.
    Every blessing!

      Thanks Randy, yes it’s rather cool, just differentiates it from the rest of the range 👍

    @RGrantJones 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    That is beautiful! The paper and print look excellent. And with the paste-down, at least, the page surface near the gutter seems fairly flat. Thanks for showing it!

    • @BurtonBibles
      @BurtonBibles  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks brother, yes the paper and print on this one is probably the best I’ve seen yet 👌 no gutter issues here brother! 👍

  • @gleasonparker1684
    @gleasonparker1684 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have 2 leather TOPAZ. To avoid hump of goatskin and moving gutter too close when NOT lying flat.

    I like double column. But have a very nice single column of NASB from Zondervan.

    This may be best design yet. Except CONCORD.

    Beautiful, love the extra yapp, the references look a little small, but it's hard to tell without it sitting in front of me.

      You can never have too much yapp! Or can you...? 😀

    I asked for a Topaz Calfskin for my 61st birthday from my adult children & Amazon sent the Goatskin instead. Best Bible l own. Looking forward to the NKJV & the NASB versions.
    Great review. Thank You.

    Thank you so much for posting this! Verse-by-verse and a Jongbloed printing, could one ask for more? I early anticipate getting one (or two) of these.

    @gleasonparker1684 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It is a beautiful BIBLE. I have ESV RED calfskin. And NKJV in black calfsplit. Both beautiful. I buy ANYTHING CAMBRIDGE prints except pitt minion or their reduced paragraph bible.
    .. I do HAVE DIADEM.

    Did this get reuploaded? I was pretty positive I watched this like 12 hours ago. But it ended up in my feed again saying uploaded just a few hours ago. Either way, thanks for showing us a preview of this!

      They do HAVE NOW a NKJV in this calfsplit or goatskin.

    So I enjoyed your review on the topaz Bible. My questions is, do they italicize the prophecies when they are quoted from the Older Testament?

    • @BurtonBibles
      @BurtonBibles  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi thanks for the feedback and comment! No they are not italicised, just quotation marks and reference in the margin. God bless!

  • @carmennooner2027
    @carmennooner2027 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I'm a note taker so this particular Bible wouldn't do for me. If I wanted a reader only Bible, the font and darker print looks great. But I am almost an obsessive, compulsive highlighter and note taker so I know right away that this Bible would frustrate me. I will have to stay with single column format in most cases because of my quirk! Thank you for the review. Nicely done.

    • @BurtonBibles
      @BurtonBibles  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      No problem Carmen, it’s important to get the right Bible for you, quirks and all! Thanks for your encouragement, every blessing!

    If I’m paying for a premium Bible I want it stitched and art guilted aswell

    • @BurtonBibles
      @BurtonBibles  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Mine is as you can see. The whole Topaz range is both smyth sewn and art gilt page edges. Also perimeter stitching on the goatskin. Thanks

  • @gleasonparker1684
    @gleasonparker1684 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Verse by verse seems to add more white space for READABILITY.

  • @tarashchatterjee
    @tarashchatterjee 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Brother will Topaz be available in NLT version in near future???

    • @BurtonBibles
      @BurtonBibles  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Not in the near future I don’t think... Cambridge don’t have a great record with the NLT, just the Pitt Minion so far, so I wouldn’t hold my breath! Then again I might be completely wrong... every blessing!

    • @BurtonBibles
      @BurtonBibles  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Licensing will be the issue I’d have thought. Cambridge appear to be more keen on licensing the NKJV, NIV, ESV and NRSV. God bless

  • @DavidRamirez-ww5kv

    How does this bible compare to the Cambridge Turquoise edition?

    • @BurtonBibles
      @BurtonBibles  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      They are certainly similar. The Topaz I think of as a modern reimagining if you like of a Bible such as a Turquoise or larger Concord

  • @gleasonparker1684
    @gleasonparker1684 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I like the way they maximize space. BUT have a 10 POINT FONT. NOT 11 AS IN QUENTEL. THEIR main competition.
    ..white space aids readability.

      You can’t have it all! I have no problem with this traditional layout though. Every blessing
