I would recommend a study Bible if you are trying to learn something in particular, or if you are going to a Bible study or Sunday school. They are definitely thick and heavy, but it's not like you are going to be carrying it the whole time. The extra information can be very helpful. I think I would leave the fancy Bible at home and bring something you don't mind getting scratched up. Maybe put a Brodart cover on it if it has a dust jacket. You can put on the little Bible tabs to help you find your place faster. You can write in your Bible if you want to (I don't). All this you can do with a cheap(ish) Bible, but I wouldn't do any of that with a Schuyler. Or if a study Bible is just too heavy for some reason, I would still get something that's readable and on somewhat decent paper, but something that isn't too expensive, for the same reasons above, and perhaps more importantly so that I'm not carrying around Bible bling while the guy beside me is reading from a freebie. I have no problem with nice Bibles, and I have a few, but somehow it seems wrong to me to have something that costs two-hundred, three-hundred dollars while others are sitting beside me with some raggedy thing they got for free. But that's just my way of seeing things.
I like the Cambridge Concord Wide Margin Reference Bible for an everyday study Bible. It has wide margins all round the page, including in the gutters. And there's a glossary, a concordance, an index for your notes and the Cambridge maps. The text block is the same as the Cambridge Personal Concord Edition, which is convenient if you've got both editions. They are a great combo.
If ‘use’ generally means read at home and study, then an electronic Bible is another choice. I’ve used Logos for a long time. It offers several translations. I just added the LSB to my tablet. It’s a stand alone app offering NT, PS and Proverbs only. I like the translation. All electronic Bibles that I use have jump to cross references with easy jump back to where I was reading. They also offer lexicons for the original text. Nothing beats a printed Bible for making notes and my own cross references. But a lot of notes in my printed Bible are developed using an electronic Bible.
My go to Bible is my 30 year old Ryrie study bible with worn out bison cover. I also love the TBS Windsor when reading KJV. But honestly I have many high end Bibles but have a soft spot for hardcover Bibles. Dont know why but my NKJV hardcover is my church bible. Font matters to me greatly but also the feel of a certain Bible.in the hand and hardcover Bibles feel good to me
Personally I find the Lockman’s LPUT2020 has the best typeset, easy to carry. The paper is a bit more translucent than I prefer. Cambridge Clarion makes a great carry bible, the best!
Who creates the center column references in the Bibles? I have asked 3 companies and no one seems to know who developed or continues to develop those references. Thanks for your attention to this interesting detail.
I actually stopped using Twitter. Every time I would post something that wasn’t about Christianity (even though it was still clean and family friendly), other Christians would basically say that I was going to hell and unfollow me.
NKJV (mornings), ESV (Church), and KJV (because it has unicorns and dragons) for me. All Cambridge because I'm a red letter person. I wish NASB would take a note. Oh, my NIV is a Schuyler Quentel backed up by a copyright 1984 NIV 😎
I love Steve's channel, he's got some good stuff going on!

Good choices!
@John 7:7 Large Print Ultrathin
@John 7:7 I think you would get used to it. I think the print in the Lockman NASB 2020 is really nice.
I love my Allan 43 KJV Bible. It’s the same text block as the 53 but a bit more portable. A real pleasure to use as is the 53.
I own a first edition Schuyler Quentel NASB, 45 gram paper, affectionately known as "The Brick" by its owners. My daily quiet time buddy.
Hey Tim, can you go over how to use a reference Bible ? I like them in the center too.
Who creates the center column references in the Bibles? I have asked 3 companies and no one seems to know who developed or continues to develop those references. Thanks for your attention to this interesting detail.
The Quintel was a little less expensive when evangelical used to offer paste down liner options.
Awesome input
Thanks!
My every day Bible is my Allen 53 Longprimer Crimson Red Highland Goatskin Bible.

Maybe you can do a video on Foxe's Book of Martyrs and The Pilgrim's Progress? Many have never heard of these on their journey
You should do top 3 study Bibles.
I’m surprised you didn’t mention any thinlines.
The ultrathin Bible is essentially a thinline.
@@AFrischPerspective you know, the smaller 8x5 ones
@@Tax_Buster I did in the top everyday carry video. But for everyday use, I opted for larger print with references
I like my super giant kjv haha
How can you trust a man who wears a Phillies hat when it comes to Bibles? 😂😅 Nice review.
