NASB - Giant Print Bible

On Thursday I received my giant print New American Standard Bible.

I had originally ordered it from ChristianBook.com; however, they were out of stock and it was backordered. I found another source for the bible at about the same price.

The style is $1333 and has a black leathertex cover.

I also paid a few dollars and had it engraved.

This is indeed a giant print bible with the text being about 13 point. Also, it is a red letter edition meaning that all the words of Christ are in red.

The NASB is considered a literal word for word translation. The bible also contains over 13,000 end of verse references.

I like the look and feel of the bible. The only thing I would have liked to have seen is a thumb index. The bible I had ordered with ChristianBook.com was supposed to be thumb indexed. The one I received from the other source was not. A thumb index is a nice feature.

I don't think I'm going to add bible tabs on this bible. While it would make my look ups a little quicker, I don't want to ruin the look and feel of the bible.

The NASB is currently a very popular translation. It is the translation that is used at my Baptist church.
