Some people have frequently brought up the construction problems and printing issues with this Bible, but honestly, I love mine. It's just a joy to read from because of the page design. I can read from it for hours and not get tired. It has become one of my top five Bibles in my collection, even with the problems.
I have now had this Bible for a month and have used it regularly. I like it. For the price it is very good. Like you mentioned, sometimes the red verse numbers overlap with the text and the lines get a little "mushed together" sometimes. Also, the notes at the bottom are somewhat cumbersome and not easy to read when you take a quick glance at them. I wish they had used red ink or something to cite the chapter and verse notations in the notes. It all runs together a bit. But, overall, I am quite pleased with the Bible.
I bought this Bible a few weeks ago - and whilst I agree not perfect - for the price it is a lovely Bible and one I will be using more and more through this year. Excellent review as always - thank you for putting this together ) +
I'm loving every video you make and your revisions, I'm not an expert on the subject, since some time ago I felt attracted to these publications and I believe that you are the mentor for these wonderful bibles, and not only because of your wonderful revisions. May God always bless you!
I finally bought one. I absolutely love it! I love the font, layout, wide margins, book introductions, etc. This is a home run purchase for anyone who loves the KJV or NKJV in my opinion. Very reminiscent of the Schuyler Canterbury
Great review, as always, Mr. Jones! I just got one, and I cannot tell the difference between the red and black letter text for the life of me. It would all look the same if it wasn't for the offset printing! With that being said, it is a handsome tome. The paper is thick, the font is attractive, and the faux leather is more convincing than most. It makes an excellent devotional Bible!
I think you sold me on this one, sir. I’ve been looking to swap my standard NKJV Bible that I use for study & church, and this one seems very nice. And, as a note-taker, narrow margins are my primary concern with most Bibles I use.
Enjoyed your review on this bible. I do remember seeing the print flaw with the verse numbers being too close to the verse. I've sought after older version bibles watching your reviews. Appreciate your time in these reviews!
This layout addresses the only criticism I have of the original (KJV) Sovereign-possibly my favourite new Bible of recent years-that is the text running into the gutter. The wide inner margins fix that at a stroke.
Thank you for a typically great & thorough review. I want to love this bible but the reviews about the test misalignments & verse numbers is holding me back. I wrote Thomas Nelson about it but have not heard back. I noticed at 17:05 what looks like the page separating at the bottom. Is that correct? Again, Thank you & God Bless.
There's a bit of a gap between the last page of the concordance and the first page of the color maps, but all the sheets are firmly in place. Thanks for the kind comment!
Yes Patrick there are gaps of separation. I had to send 2 of mine back. Aside from worse paper damage than what Grant had (I had more folds, wrinkles, and even imprints of the ribbons) the partial separation or ease of pull apart made me question keeping it. I originally purchased them because of the design. I love the layout and it's a smaller bible than the current wide margin they offer. It's also more cozy than a Cambridge. For size it can't be beat really. Despite it's thickness it feels much lighter than other wide margins. Anyhow, I purchased them for a rebind project. Once I began turning through the bible I noticed the same separation you did except it was more frequent than you noted. I saw it a few times in Grants video also. Anyhow I decided to test that and put some light pressure gently pulling against the separation to see if it's going to come apart and yes it certainly felt that way. The overcast stitch looks like it's weaker than other bibles that do overcast. This Nelson was made in India and the quality (or lack thereof) shows. The overcast seems to be in larger loops and fewer loops meaning less support. The only thing holding back separation in the problem areas seems to be the overcast which seems weak innately. Another issue is the paper had cockling, bad. It also felt somewhat damp to the touch, hard to explain. I liked the texture of the paper though, it had a grit to it that was a nice change. As for other issues mine was plagued with text issues where verse numbers where going into the verse and in other cases partial verses were running into the verse above or below it. It was very bad. Enough for me to send back. At the moment Christianbook is having a sale where the genuine leather is cheaper than the fake leather, around 35$. The KJV WM Sovereign is around 15-20 depending on which leather/color. I'm going to try again. I saw a post on facebook where someone had one of these that didn't have the problems I listed above, or so they claimed. I will let you know if I can remember how they turn out when they arrive. Edit: I prefer VbV but if this is another fail, I might have to go with Cambridge which is a smaller text in paragraph. It's sad. The options for a NKJV wide margins are slim, very slim. I have been begging Schuyler to do one. They would do an amazing job. My problem with them though is it's probably going to be a copy of the Quentel. I would much prefer a VbV with center column references.
Outstanding video and detailed breakdown of this Bible. I just bought a copy of this one for myself and very much enjoyed your video. I am looking through some of your other videos as well. Do you have a video regarding the LSB and the older HCSB Bibles?
I agree, Stephen. I like the design a great deal. I hope the quality control issues (e.g., print registration and wrinkled paper) I commented about in the video get resolved over time.
Well done and informative video as always. I've got 2 of these bibles. I purchased the brown imitation first to see how I felt and the layout is so nice that I purchased the black genuine leather for the future. I have noticed, in the imiation leather, the spin seems to "pinch" in a couple places. I hope with use that will relax.
@@RGrantJones I'd suggest yes considering it's not much more cost and its a genuine leather and It's a paste-down like the imitation leather but the liner is vinyl vs. the heavy paper liner that's in the imitation leather. I felt, a proper wide margin finally rather than only the outer margin!
@@livingwithfaithbiblereview3413 - thanks for that information! Wide margins all around are much better than a wide outer margin only in my opinion also.
This is a really nice Bible and plus the wide margin is really good. The red letter is deal breaker but it doesn't seem like Nelson is going to make a non premier collection bible without red letter. What I'd love to see from Nelson is a Bible jsut like this without NY references but having the full set of translation footnotes. In this edition the references and the footnotes should have been separated for ease of navigation.
Thanks for commenting, Edward! I think Nelson will continue to ignore us on the red letter issue as long as red letter editions sell well. I have to assume Nelson understands its market, which leads me to believe that NKJV users must generally prefer red letter editions.
@@RGrantJones That's really sad to be honest because I do believe that a lot of people either just hate red letters or are colour blind and can't read it. I'm not sure that they will change either, although I do believe that I saw where they are coming out with a few blue letter editions this year and their tag line for those is that it is for people who have difficulty reading red letters, so they do at least know that a portion of the NKJV market don't like red letters. I thought it would have been much easier to just print black letter editions, but they are determined, I believe, to have the words of Christ set apart in a different colour than the rest of the Bible, something that I just cannot understand. This is why I personally have discontinued the use of the NKJV in favour of the ESV as my primary Bible. If I have to use the NKJV translation, a translation I really love and had used for a very long time (I had a Holman black letter text edition for many years which I wore out), I use it electronically which is not my preferred way for reading the Bible so I just don't use it anymore. Furthermore, I've grown to absolutely love the ESV translation anyways I can find editions that have all their footnotes and no references and ones that have both but they are separated so as to make navigation easier.
Thanks for your review. I just do not like red-letter Bibles; and I have always thought the NKJV to be an unfinished work. BUT, the Nelson NKJV Open Bible has found its place in my library!
Thanks for the encouraging comment, and for the question, Mike. More of a setback than progress. The computer I've used for the past six years or so died recently, and the software I've been using to draw charts is no longer available. So I have to locate a drawing application that produces high-resolution images, and I need to redraw the slides I've already built.
@@RGrantJones That must be frustrating, sorry to hear that. Always look forward to your reviews, and I'm sure it'll be worth the wait whenever you're able to complete it. God Bless.
Edit 2: in case any prospective buyer sees this, the problem was either with the genuine leather or with my individual copy which had very frequent and extreme print non-uniformity. Leathersoft version is essentially as described in the video here. One thing I did see in both bibles was extreme bold black ink, but I don’t regard it as as much of a problem So I received this today…I love it, except the red-letter. The inconsistency in my copy is extreme, Matthew 22 & 23 specifically degrade to a faint pink, and throughout the gospels this repeats, though not as severe (I must have a different edition than yours, since one of the misalignments isn’t present in my copy). Is this worth exchanging over? First experience with a red-letter, btw - I can see why it gives you a headache! But if it was at least somewhat consistent, wouldn’t be a dealbreaker for me. Edit: I see at the end you mention it’s quite bad in your copy as well. That’s really too bad. I think this will be my only NKJV, I like the aesthetics of it too much to return it if I’m not going to get a better print.
I am a new subscriber and love the channel. You probably get requests all the time, so here goes lol. I have a 1985 New Internation version my grandmother gave me. Would love if you could review that one :) Thank you
It is interesting how we all have our own little idiosyncrasies when it comes to bible design/production. You like the black letter, whereas I like the red letter. You are happy with the spine, while I can only look at bibles with Holy Bible, Version Name and Publisher Name and blind raised spine hubs… and can only stomach red/maroon print highlight text; if not black. Printing errors are, however very annoying and I don’t know how the binder can let such an error pass the production line. The page span mis-alignment error is because one ‘signature’ of pages was out of line. Each signature usually comprises 8 double sided pages (16 in all) -(or multiples of 4 double sided pages; 4, 8 or 16, depending upon each single page size) printed on both sides of one large sheet, then folded and bound together with the other ‘signatures’ before being cut on three sides; top, bottom and fore edge to reveal the individual pages. And, the term; ‘micrometres’ can also be stated as ‘microns.’
I grew up with microns, but I stopped using it when I heard that the international standards folks preferred micrometer. Thanks for the explanation regarding the printing offset, David.
Lexham Press just came out with a new translation of the Apocrypha/Deuterocanonical books. I would love to see a review on the translation ($13.99 at Christianbook). The Lexham Old Testament Apocrypha: A New Translation
Would it be rude to ask you how many copies of the Bible you have? (I aooreciate that you keep giving me reasons to explore more, but I am running out of room.) At least my Ancient/Modern NJV has black letters.
dale, I have no idea. I've been buying a few copies a year almost every year since about 1981. And though I've given some away and lost some to a flood, I still have most of them.
@@RobertFranklin85 - Yes, I'm confident that there are more than 100 here, especially if you count English and Greek New Testaments and copies of the LXX. May God bless you and yours as well!
Thank you,R.Grant. New Subbie. Enjoy your detailed work. (BTW your participation in Wildsmith's famous "ribbon" episode was brilliant.) Continued Blessings,Sir.🌹🌹🌹🌹 Added thought: do you think Nelson will publish the Sovereign NKJV in large print? Thanks.
Thanks for the kind words, Brenda, and for subscribing! I don't know whether Nelson will publish the Sovereign NKJV in large print, but I'm confident that they will not do so this year. The only NKJV large print edition Nelson plans to print this year is a personal size reference Bible.
Thanks for the question, Stephen! No, I don't have a primary translation. It's likely that I use the KJV more frequently than the NKJV. I read a range of translations, often a more literal translation side-by-side with a more interpretive one, like the Jerusalem Bible or the NEB. When I read the Old Testament, I typically follow along in the NETS as well.
Thanks for commenting, Hassan! I haven't heard much about Bible printing in India before (though, of course, I have Bibles with India paper in them). But regardless of whether it is now or becomes a big business there, I hope they work through their quality control issues. This publication is an example of an excellent design and flawed execution -- which can be corrected in future printings.
@@StanleyMathai you can find bibles in English almost everywhere now, even in Pakistan. In my Urdu-Hindi language I am sure there are Bibles there in India. Also very few will understand KJV as the language is archaic.
