Holy Bible: New King James Version, Includes H. M. S. Richards Study Helps Hardcover – January 1, 2006

Some Bibles I've seen with "large" print can only be called "large" in comparison to the teeny print in other Bibles. But for those of us with presbyopia, that "large" is a joke. THIS "giant" print is more like what folks used to large-print will consider "large." I would say "giant" is an exaggeration, but certainly, this is a good size for middle-age and older eyes. This is about 13 pt type. I'd think Giant would be 16 or more. This is LARGE, and useful.The Bible cover is gorgeous. A warm toasty brown and an appealing herringbone-ish sort ofpattern. Flexible as a whole, with a bit of weight, it's got heft, though not superheavy. I wouldn't recommend it for someone frail due to the size/heft. No notes/study features like the humongous large print Bibles. This is text with references down the middle column (not at the end of verses). Some folks like end of verse, some center column. THIS IS CENTER references.There is minimal show-through, which is nice. There is minimal white space (well, sure, gotta use up that space with "giant" print), so if you take copious notes within your Bible, use a super-duper fine Bible pen, or be aware that while you can make very shorthand notes, there's not space for lots.This is a great Bible to tote to worship service or Bible study or to read, especially if you prefer to use commentaries of your own choice or to look online, rather than having the explanations/clarifications/charts within the actual Bible. If a bare-ish text is not your thing, go get a study bible. The Nelson one has lovely tools/aids/charts, but it's really heavy and the large print is not that large.This is New King James version. My pastor uses that, so this is why I got this type of Bible. I bought a similar one (feminine, in a rose color) for myself, and a gray-taupe one for hubby. I almost bought him THIS one, as I saw a fellow church-goer using this one and he let me flip through it and check the font size, feel, etc. We liked the look and the print size, hence buying our own (though different style of cover).Thanks, Thomas Nelson, for a good-sized print and beautiful cover. I would request you not call smaller fonts sizes Giant. I've seen some other similar sized TN NKJV Bibles with SMALLER than this print called "Giant". It's confusing and kinda misleading. If you go for a different cover, make sure you check the font size. Not all similar type center and end of verse reference Bibles by this publisher called "Giant" have THIS large a type. I know, I spent days looking them over at the Nelson site and here.... Some are 11 point, not 13. That is a difference.Good for aging eyes. :)Hope this helps...

This New King James Version is the most accurate and powerful version, after the King James Version (in my opinion). I know that subsequent revisions of the scriptures (NIV, RSV, ESV etc) have significantly changed scripture passages and words to less powerful meanings, sometimes even leaving significant verses out of the main text.!! (ie Matthew 17:21, 18:11, 6:13b, 23:14, Mark 11:26, Luke 1:28, Acts 8:37 and so on). I often wonder who the "scholars" were that came up the modern versions---so much is watered down. For instance, 1 John 5:7-8 (a clear picture of the Trinity) in NKJV and KJV reads "For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one. And there are three that bear witness on earth: the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and these three agree as one.", while in the NIV Bible, these verses have been reduced to " For there are three that testify: the Spirit, the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement." Yikes. Stick with NKJV and KJV Bibles if you want the whole Truth from God. A great book for more info and scriptures changed is "NEW AGE BIBLE VERSIONS" by Gail Riplinger.

I saw this great looking bible in a store and couldn't believe how much it cost, but wanted it badly. I love the King James verson of the Bible, but it is hard to find them in "newer" forms and with "newer" covers on them. This one is the New King James verson but is close enough to the regular verson, I look at certain quotes that I love to see if the same or just a little bit different, like Psalm 23, and that was almost to the tee on that one. I found it on here at a great price and it was shipped fast and I got it fast. The cover is thick and it has great detail on it with the leaves and sticks and what not on it. The pages are not too thick, but aren't super thin. This is a great gift for a father, or a brother, or a male friend that likes to hunt or fish or hike or to do just about anything. This is even a great bible for a female like myself! This is a must buy, it is a great product!

Essential if you truly want to understand the Bible and reconcile what appears to be contradictory verses and learn how to rightly divide as 2 Tim 2:15 commands us to do. For example Hebrews 6 (paraphrasing): “it’s impossible… for those who have fallen away… to be brought back to repentance.” Wait, I thought it was impossible to lose your salvation? Yes! For the Body of Christ- but Hebrews was not written for the BOC (get this resource if you want to see that example to its end). This makes Bible so much easier to understand- I will cherish this resource as long as I live!

What I like about all of the NKjV Bible Journals is that they are fantastic study assets--probably the best--for (a) academic style note taking at church and for (b) easy future reference to past notes at home. My application is the long term sermon series of an individual book of the Bible. I have been using the NKJV Bible Journals since April 2022 and recently purchased a fourth. For me, the NKJV Bible Journals eliminate the requirement for separate notebooks and therefore eliminate the requirement for the storage of separate notebooks.

Easy to read with the large font.

I have a hard time giving a low priced item, a low rating. You do get what you pay for. This is a nice sized print but is printed very cheaply....it sort of fades a little bit. Not bad for the price and it is a starting point for someone. I would not hesitate to give these out to people. I may order more.
