This bible contains the full text of the popular size King James or Authorized Version Bible, presented in a high quality black leather binding with gold edges, ribbon and slipcase.
witybe: I love reading the Holy Bible and the international version, it breaks words down more so you can understand. It offers me hope in a hopeless world, and’ that there is more to life than what we see or experience day to day; that there was, and still is a spiritual realm around us, which is God and His son Jesus, long before mankind was even created. The Bible informs us that we were created, and did not just appear or form here. It even gives us hope in our death if we believe. Directing us to what is good, and that there is goodness always present, and to what is evil, and why there is evil always present as well. The Holy Bible to me is the Spirit of God reaching down through an infinite expanse of time, using mankind; the prophets of old, touching generations of people, enlightening those who will hear and believe, so that they may help others who will receive and believe. Otherwise without the Holy Bible we all might have been agnostic and generations would have been oblivious about God. The Bible is a light in a very dark world’ that is relentlessly getting darker. Everyone should give it a read in their life rather you’re a believer or not. I give The Holy Bible five stars, nothing else on this planet offers such hope in life and death in this crazy world we live in.… (más)

I had heard great things about "early" editions of the Open Bible for years. I was SO excited to find a copy thrifting. I paid a little over three dollars. Depending on where you open The Open Bible, you may or may not get the impression that it is in fact a study Bible. If you have a narrow view of what makes a study Bible a study Bible, then you may still have that opinion. If you are looking for a study Bible that offers study notes--commentary notes--on every chapter of the Bible, then this is not the study Bible you are looking for. If, however, you are looking for a Bible with study helps--no matter where they may be found, then this one could be quite the thing.
Most--if not all--of the study features are located at the BEGINNING or the END of the Bible.
There are book introductions and outlines at the start of each book. There are a light amount of end of verse references AND a few end of verse clarifications on the text to help with archaic words. Speaking of which, there are SOME spelling changes to update the text. I was SO THRILLED with this. Messianic prophecies are indicated by stars in the Old and New Testaments.
The New Testament offers FIFTEEN Christian Life Study Outlines and Notes. The fifteen outlines are as follows: The Bible--the Word of God God Jesus Christ the Son of God The Holy Spirit Sin Judgments Rewards The Church Prayer Faith The Abundant Life Repentance The New Birth God's Plan of Salvation How To Witness Effectively Each features an outline which points you to a handful of Scriptures. Each Scripture features notes.
At the beginning there is a huge section devoted to the Biblical Cyclopedic Index which boasts to be the best blend of concordance, topical index, and syllabus.
It offers dozens of bells and whistles--including a VERY lengthy, very thorough article on HOW TO STUDY YOUR BIBLE. But because all the helps are located at the beginning and end, you might rush right on by and miss out on what the Bible has to offer.
It is double column. It is red letter. The font size is typical or average. If I *had* to guess, I'd say in the eight to nine point range.
Newer versions of the Open Bible do exist. I do think there were some significant changes made. ( )

I am hoping that this will be the only "messy" review of a Bible. Messy in that I literally read from three different physical Bibles--all the King James Version. I do typically try to read physical bibles cover to cover. I don't usually mix-and-match physical bibles. However, circumstances. I read from the RAINBOW STUDY BIBLE, the KJV Creedal Bible, and a vintage KJV published by World. I read probably fifty percent from the World one. There is NO copyright date. It is not in GoodReads or Amazon's databases.
I love, love, love the King James Version. I especially love older editions of the King James Version. The print seems to be blacker, darker. The paper can often be nicer--better quality. The gilding of this one is red. It is double column. Words of Christ in red. Self-pronouncing text. No cross references. Separate pagination for Old and New Testaments. 954 for the Old Testament. 292 for the New Testament. ( )
The Hebrew and Greek Originals are of Qabalistic value. It contains also many magical apologues, and recounts many tales of folklore and magical rites.

Bibliographical introduction. Mainly, no doubt, because of the predominance of French as the language of educated people in England from the time of the Norman Conquest until the middle of the fourteenth century, the Bible, as a whole, remained untranslated into English until the last years of the life of Wyclif.
