Great for comparing the different translations and exposes the ones influenced by the Hag Hammedi pieces and the cut-and-slash method of paraphrasing.

I love this Bible because I can get a better understanding of God's Word with 1 Bible containing 4 different references at hand. I do not have to have 4 different Bibles in front of me to be able to study God's Word.

This bible is an awesome tool for students of the word who want the ability to understand what they are reading. I love that it offers the poetic style of the King James, but gives you the convenience of other translations that are not old english. The purpose of reading the bible is for individuals to gain a greater understanding of the word of God and this bible takes the guess word out of comprehending. You will walk away with greater revelation. It is a must have for those seeking to gain clarity. The bible says:"man can not live by bread alone,but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God."

Other than it's size and weight (both necessary!) I "love" this Bible! I thought I would just use it here at home for my own use in studying the Bible, but find that it is greatly appreciated when I share it at Bible Study Group and Sunday School, etc! Am recommending it's purchase for use at our Church's Wed. nite Bible Study. It often expands and clarifies our understanding of God's Word - both what it means and how it applies to our own lives.
