I bought this for my cousin for Christmas and only yesterday did I find out that Jesus' words are not in red. I was so shocked and upset that I had sent this to her. She has re-dedicated her life to Christ and I have this study (a black one) bible and believe it or not I chose it because of the color, knowing the content would be the same. Wrong!! I didn't know there were Holy Bibles that did not have red lettering! Now I don't know what to do! I spent alot of money (for me) on this gift and now I don't want her to use it since I think the red lettering is invaluable. So DISSAPOINTED!!

Review 3 for The NKJV Study Bible, Leathersoft dark chocolate, indexed
We looked at the local bookstores for a NKJV Study Bible for my wife I have been using this version for over 10 years. After searching locally we were unhappy with what we found, a quick search on my phone we found what we were looking for. The foot notes are clear and and don't skip over verses that are not popular in today's world. The page layout is great with plenty of cross references.

Review 4 for The NKJV Study Bible, Leathersoft dark chocolate, indexed
I was looking for 'the next step' in my biblical studies and this Bible has fulfilled all my expectations. I love the context given of each book of the Bible; I love the Greek/Hebrew definitions of certain words; I love the maps references. This is a wonderful Bible and I'm very happy with this purchase.

This bible is exactly what I wanted! I have 10 + bibles but I wear them out after a few yrs of use. I love the size, coloring and especially the design that goes from the front to the back. I think this bible is simply GORGEOUS.

Review 8 for The NKJV Study Bible, Leathersoft dark chocolate, indexed
Pros: - Nice leather binding on this Bible. - I got my wife's name engraved on it at a small charge. - Commentaries and study tips are not overwhelming and are informative. - Books have tabs on the page edges for quick access to specific parts of the Bible.
Cons: - The pages are a little thin, but not unacceptably so. - Price is a little high for what you get. I would have thought it would be $20 cheaper.

Review 10 for The NKJV Study Bible, Leathersoft dark chocolate, indexed
Downfalls- pages are really thin makes it a little hard to read because you can see the words on the otherside of page. Also the thin pages makes it hard to mark withough soaking through. No words of Christ red letters. I paid a lot more for this bible because I went to a place other than CBD never again!!
About half of this bible is commentary, which is nice for those confusing passages. Awesome concordance also good index ad a teachings of Jesus section

I was disappointed that this was not a red letter bible as I bought it for a new believer, guess I should have read closer. Otherwise it's beautiful and well received.

The NKJV content is as expected and the commentary is exactly what I had hoped for. It is truly a joy to read. On the minus side, I am somewhat concerned about the durability of the binding. It is not at all up to the quality of the Zondervan NIV study Bible I purchased through CBC. (The Zondervan did cost $25 more.) My other issue is with the software. I inadvertently lost the serial number that is required to activate the software. When I called CBC they referred me to Libronix who told me to call back in 3-4 weeks because the person who had all the codes was out due to a hear attack. I have since been praying for his recovery, however it seems there ought to be a plan "B".

Honestly I bought this for one of my elders and I think I would want one for myself. I already have a Thompson Chain NKJV but not a NKJV Study Bible. Everything about this Bible say 6 Stars, Just awesome.

Review 14 for The NKJV Study Bible, Leathersoft dark chocolate, indexed
I bought this as a gift for my husband. I was disappointed in the cover. It was supposed to be leather but it feels thin and cheap. He doesn't like the way the verses are set up as paragraphs. It makes it hard to jump to a particular verse. But maybe the cover will become softer with use.

Review 16 for The NKJV Study Bible, Leathersoft dark chocolate, indexed
I wouldn't really call the cover "burgandy". It is a beautiful chocolate brown with a very nice texture covering 1/2 of the front, the spine and the back cover. There is a seem in decorative gold stitching with the other 1/2 of the front cover in a smoother texture leather that has a reddish tone, but I would still call it brown. It is very lovely. I greatly appreciate the study features on each page to enhance my understanding as I'm reading my Bible. I have not used the CD yet that comes with the Bible, so can't really comment on that at this time. I am very happy with my purchase.

Review 18 for The NKJV Study Bible, Leathersoft dark chocolate, indexed
Great purchase. Beautiful two-tone brown leather, and I had my name engraved on the cover. The study notes are great. Many great features such as bible history, maps, and concordance. One of my favorite things is in the back of the Bible.There is a list of old and new testament prophecies which I find is great. I will recommended this Bible to everyone at my church.
