Thomas Nelson Voice Full Bible, Leathersoft, saddle brown
The Voice is a faithful dynamic equivalent translation that reads like a story with all the truth and wisdom of God’s Word.

Through a collaboration of more than 120 biblical scholars, pastors, writers, musicians, poets, and artists, The Voice recaptures the passion, grit, humor, and beauty that is often lost in the translation process. The result is a retelling of the story of the Bible in a form as fluid as modern literary works, yet remaining painstakingly true to the original manuscripts.

I think this is by far the best Bible I have ever read. Reading it is so simple and easy to understand. I find my time in the Word greatly enhanced with a deep sence of clairity that is often hard to come by in many translations.
Buy this Bible and get into God's Word. Romans 15:13 is one of my favorite verses and in The Voice it reads "I pray that God, the source of all hope, will infuse your lives with an abundance of joy and peace in the midst of your faith so that your hope will overflow through the power of the Holy Spirit."
Was that hard to understand? Get this Bible and get into learning what an awesome God we have, and what He has for you.

I am a pastor. As such, I have spent more than my fair share of time reading and studying different translations. Each have their strengths and weaknesses. The Voice Bible is no different. Rather than rely on traditional interpretations of Hebrew or Greek words, it attempts to bring essence of the original to today's language (eg :the use of "Voice" as a translation of the Greek logos instead of "Word").
Interestingly enough, many have derided the translation for not using "Jesus Christ", "apostles" or other traditional words. While you could consider it a "misrepresentation", is it really? The very term "Jesus Christ" was a translation of Jesus true name "Yeshua the Messiah". How is referring to Him as "Jesus the Anointed One" any different? It is refreshing to me to see a translation attempt to remain true to the source material and not be too concerned about conforming to tradition just because it's tradition. That's not to say that I don't use the term "Jesus Christ", but it is simply a name we ascribe to Him. So long as we do so with reverance and worship, I don't think He splits hairs (especially where Jesus is technically NOT his name!).
In the end, I really appreciated The Voice Bible and recommend it, especially if you are a new Christian or are looking for a refreshingly different approach to Bible translation!

I bought one of these for myself. I've tried to read the Bible for years and always been stopped by an inability to understand what I am reading. That is why I LOVE this bible. It tells a story in modern language and makes reading, studying, and growing a really exciting experience.

Overall Rating:
This translation is from a Postmodern Perspective
Date:May 1, 2013
Rev. Dr. Jack Fucci
Location:Middlesex, NJ
Age:55-65
Gender:male
I recommend that anyone interested in this translation read the introductions in the front of the book. You will notice that the translation is said to have been done by poets, musicians, artists as well as scholars. This sent up a red flag to me. I also sensed that the flavor of the description and the background of the publisher has a postmodern sense. I believe one review already given shows discernment. He gave it a 1 star and gives good reason. He mentioned Psalm 23 as translated in The Voice and said it seems a bit "New Age". This review is my opinion but I have done some research into Postmodernism and Emergent Church theology and I believe both are involved in this work. Be careful with this translation and research the publisher and the background of the work before you invest money into it. Just a word of caution. You don't need to take my word for it, but check it out for yourself.

Review 5 for Voice Full Bible, Leathersoft, saddle brown
Overall Rating:
Dangerously Tricky
Date:April 24, 2013
Concerned Christian
As I read the sample and listened to the translation of Psalm 23 I felt nauseous and still do as I am writing this review. Although some parts sound wonderfully enlightening, the essence of God is lost. As a previous reviewer stated Jesus was not simple a VOICE. He was and IS THE WORD of God. That is a powerful title that when studied reveals the deity of Jesus. Omitting this is very dangerous. I would be very weary of this book as a new believer. It borders on new age teaching calling The Lord, the eternal in psalm 23. Why would that even need to be changed? We don't need to adapt the word of God to make it more appealing to people. It is the living breathing word of the Living God. He will not let it return to him void. Changing it is dangerous and futile. I pray that the people who buy it truly do find inspiration in it and are not lulled into believing that God is less than who He truly is.

This is a beautiful bible. It's the third one I've purchased, one for myself and 2 for gifts. I love the easy way the text reads, just like a story without missing any of the relevance. Makes bible reading much easier and even more enjoyable for me.

I like the format that shows changes in speakers. Appropriate notes placed in the scripture narrative indicated by being placed in box to show they are separate from Bible text help make reading come alive.
Cultural notes help my understanding of the events recorded.
Special word choices are explained to give clarity that aids understanding.
I find THE VOICE to be refreshing and inspiring as it brings me face to face with God and myself challenging me to walk following the voice of God.

I love God's Word. I own KJV, NKJV, NIV'84, NIV2011, ESV, HCSB, Amplified, and now, The Voice. I also own several study Bibles. The Voice is the best overall, accurate translation of God's Word that I have ever read because it is so clear and easy to undestand. It also has an elegance to its writing style that I find beautiful, reverent and very satisfying. The one-of-a-kind handmade leather cover is a wonderful bonus. It would be great to see this in large print sometime!

My wife and I sampled the pages of this book to find out how it was translated and who participated in the translation; we then read the first chapter of the Gospel of John and were shocked and offended at the watered down, lack of reverence given to God's Holy Word. The Bible is not meant to be a new age story talking about a pining God pursuing us or a play to entertain us. John 1:1 calls Jesus Christ the Word, not the Voice! This is a very loose, suggestive translation that may be easy to read, but your understanding of God's attributes and man's sinfulness can get lost in the vague, new-age way it is written. Where is the discernment in Christianity in this country? How many times do we need to dumb down the powerful word of God to make salvation something someone can easily swallow instead of something they should repent and trust in? You don't have to buy this garbage to know how awful it is; true believers, run from this "version" of the Bible, because it is not the Bible at all.

When I read how they were making these covers, I loved the idea. Where I worked - at The Mustard Seed Street Ministeries - they had a program where using donated leather, people trying to get going again, made leather journals for sale as a source of income. I have two of these bibles, one for myself and one as a gift to my pastor and I was really impressed not to mention humbled at the quality. These covers were made with love, care and creativity. Side by side you can see they are unique, each one an expression of the designers love for the Lord and His Word. That's just the cover! The translation is also really good. It is so clear to understand, but just as important is the fact that once you start reading, you become so wrapped up in the book that you can't put it down! Before you know it you've read 4 or 5 chapters and you don't want to stop! This is not a paraphrase, it's an approved translation done by over 100 scholars, pastors etc. Anyone who has lead Bible Studies and had to answer questions from new believers will love this translation as it explains things so well.

Translation/format is great; cover disappoints.

I loved reading The Voice New Testament, and was excited to order the complete Bible. The translation/format is great in Bible study. However, I selected the hand crafted leather cover, (mine came in a pretty, green color,) but I am disappointed in the quality. The leather is stiff, and the edges are raw, rough and sharp. I finally bought a Bible cover for it, which will reduce the chances of getting scratched, or clothes getting snagged, from the edges of the Bible. Recommend the Bible, but not my selection of the cover.

I really enjoy the insight this bible provides, and the background. This IS NOT a study bible. Its best use is to help understand the setting and the way society functioned during biblical times. The leather cover is beautiful, but the edges are very rough - tends to catch on clothes. If I purchased it again I would get a regular standard leather cover.

When you are reading in a small group, such as early morning devotionals like the "Daily Bread", this version really stands out.
The hard bound binding, which my wife prefers, appears to be very durable, and should hold up to daily use. I would highly recommend one of these beautifully written versions of the BIBLE.

As always, Christianbook.com was a pleasure to buy from, fast service, nicely packed for shipping and the price simply can't be beat. Now on to my review of "The Voice" bible, Special Ed. hand-crafted genuine leather.
I can't begin to describe how much I enjoy reading this latest English translation, the style, layout and wording itself simply makes reading the Scriptures not only come more alive but also flow much more easily and therefore quickly. I've never read a more flowing (and accurate) translation. The in text notes are clearly separated in style and typesetting and help clarify and link the scriptural text in a way that isn't intrusive to the reader. The maps at the back of the bible are bold and colorful and add to the overall study/reading of the Bible.
As for the genuine leather hand-crafted cover, I love that too. Created in Argentina this particular bible helps employ natives there with a steady, better paying job than otherwise may be available. So not only do I have a great, literal, one of a kind bible, but the sale also helps another human being who isn't as blessed as I myself am. A great deal in my opinion, beautifully bound bible for me and a good paying job for another!

The hand-crafted edition is very unique and one-of-a-kind; no two will be exactly the same. There are some noticeable flaws in natural leather(to be expected) and it is not a smooth, refined leather but somewhat rough around the edges. There is a strong leather smell that is a desirable quality of genuine leather. It is cosmetically appealing though there are no gilded edges or thumb indexing. Has a more rustic quality but in a good way.
The translation is the best part; it is stimulating and refreshing!!! I have the New Testament version, the hard cover version, and now this hand-crafted leather version so that I can take it with me anywhere...sometimes I don't want a heavy book to lug around, so the NT is perfect for those times. I can take it outside and not worry about ruining an expensive copy. I have been taking this Bible wherever I go since discovering it because its hard to put down! I can understand why the enemy is so against this version; its a huge threat to the darkness he has kept people in for so long!!! Jesus is Lord !!!

When I first heard about The Voice, I was admittedly sort of skeptical about another "new" translation project. I did want to be fair, however, so I ordered the full Bible. I am so glad that I did! The Voice is a literary masterpiece!! I have been using it from the pulpit almost weekly and, without fail, people comment on the beauty of this translation. If you are a pastor, teacher, or leader, I highly recommend The Voice. It is a marvelous read, and is engaging for each hearer. The cover of this edition was handcrafted, and is a beautiful work of art. I am very grateful for the efforts of all who collaborated on "The Voice". I am a beneficiary of their work, and happily extend a heartfelt "BRAVO"!!
