    First of all, the quality of this Bible's binding is great! Genuine Leather is beautiful and sturdier than bonded leather. The color is gorgeous. Now for the real stuff: I have researched several reviews and there doesn't seem to be as much controversy on this version as the NIV. Scholars used the Nestle-Aland's Novum Testamentum Graece and the Greek New Testament for the NT and mainly Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia for the OT. (Of course, many more resources were also used.) The HCSB makes note in footnotes of text not original in some of the Hebraic/Aramaic text and explain the importance for interpretation. You will find God's names: Yahweh, Hosanna, Messiah, Abba and others not found in some modern translations. I believe there was much more thought put into this version/interpretation in order to keep the Message alive. Overall, I like the read. I have ADD and this version "flows" for me without being distracted by sentence formation.

    I am completely satisfied with the layout and up to date translation that is provided in the HCSB. This is an absolutely wonderful Bible at a most affordable price. For personal study, research or sermons, it is an indispensable tool that has so much information , you will be amazed. Heading/texts/bullet points not found in my other Cambridge or Zondervan Bibles. Notes and center reference promote context and clarity. The print size is perfect . Dimensions remarkably handy not bulky. Bible is printed in S.Korea all praise to YHWH for his glorious witness in Asia . Binding , sewing and cover quality is 100% This is fantastic Bible. Am praying when if God wills to purchase an entire case !

    very compact Bible for someone needing larger print. No other large print reference Bible on the market is as thin. The HCSB reads as easy as NIV but gives new insight on many passages due to the words selected when translating. HCSB is quickly becoming my top pick above NIV - compare your favorite passage in both versions at biblegateway.com. Sturdy leather binding should make this a lifetime Bible. Extra space in reference column to write your own notes.

    Well, I am very pleased with this. This was not bought to be my "main bible". I purchased this to take to church. It is a thin line bible so it is very easy to carry w/ me to church, it is thumb indexed so as the pastor quotes things from the bible I can easily find them, and it is large print so I can easily see the words. Also, I had it engraved with my name which came out beautifully on the bonded leather. I am very pleased.
