    Hi Tim! In my search for which ESV Bible to select, I followed the wisdom of you, and of your dad. Knowing that he chose the Cambridge Topaz, when he likely had his pick of anything, I began my search. I found a great deal through one of the Facebook group, and my ESV Topaz arrived today. What an incredibly beautiful and readable Bible! Thank you for all that you do, and for helping us find a Bible that is perfect for us!

    The open-book, side-by-side comparison in your interior walkthrough was the most valuable part of your video for me. I came in thinking the Omega was what I wanted, but in looking at readability, I'm now leaning towards the Cambridge (my eyesight isn't as good as it was). Thank you.

    Just getting to watch this as I'm going through some of your videos. The one thing that sticks out to me is how spoiled we are in the market by bibles with gilded edges around the inner cover. Cambridge would be that much more of a threat if they added it to the Topaz, Turquoise, etc.

    Great vid, thanks. I hope you do a mid size bible (5.5x8") round up: Allan ESV1, PSQ, Cambridge Concord (wish they did an ESV in this size) or you could say a Concord size Pitt Minon) and whatever else you think of.
    Of the large sized bibles, I have a Topaz which I really like (verse by verse, font is not huge, red letter text) = Winner.

    • @timwildsmith
      @timwildsmith  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks, Alvin! I'll figure out the best way to do a mid-size round up. Did you see my small Bible round up? It includes the PSQ, Pitt Minion, Clarion, and a new Crossway Bible. th-cam.com/video/arXidMZBk1M/w-d-xo.html

    I got the replacement QUENTEL NASB 95 today. It is great. But a bit floppy. But I love it. A bit afraid to use it. But it is probably best 200 $ I have spent. Love the format and 11 point font. I think I understood THEY..Schuyler..will do 2020 in another version..but keep 1995 in QUENTEL.. But not sure.

    Thanks for the vids. Something I struggle with don't understand and that is why they have references on the outside (or middle) rather than gutter. Its so much easier to read main text when not reading the curve into the gutter. Do you have any thoughts on this. Kind regards Martin

    • @timwildsmith
      @timwildsmith  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I tend to agree with you, Martin. To me, references in the gutter are there when you need them, but out of the way when you don't.

    Great review. I currently own the Topaz, but have eyed the newer Quentel. Spec wise they seem so similar (same 28gsm paper/ 2k Denmark) other than the Topaz verse by verse. Is the Quentel easier to read, or is there no noticeable difference between it and the Topaz?

    • @timwildsmith
