Blake Chancery –
I’m comparing this to the Cambridge Concord Wide margin I have. I’m not a fan of the page thickness. It is too thin for my taste. I can’t flip quickly like I can with my Cambridge. I’ve been using that for ten years and have grown accustomed to my firm handling of pages. I don’t like how there are no verse numbers, but there are paragraph divides. When using in public worship, I can typically follow along and find the passage quickly. If one is accustomed to hearing sermons from one verse, one will probably never find it in time. The positives are it is full yapp and bound much better than my Cambridge. Overall, if one is looking for a well bound reading Bible for home, it’s good option. I also like the size. It’s smaller than my Cambridge, which I have grown accustomed to.
