4 reviews for Cambridge NKJV Topaz Reference Bible, Black Goatskin
Clint Marshall –
I purchased this Bible here on this website. I have really enjoyed the layout and the easy to read font type. Preaching is a great experience with this Bible. I left one star off because I really enjoy some of the poetic styles or other NKJV Bibles in personal private reading time. I would at least like to see quotation marks or a consistent italics for all OT quotes in the NT. This type of format verse by verse would benefit from the old fashioned paragraph markers of Bibles from 100 years ago. The quality is absolutely amazing in all aspects. The leather, binding, ribbons, notes pages, maps, and the especially the paper are just what they claim to be, premium! So if I could I would bump this up to 4.5 stars.

The text block in the Topaz is my favorite. The materials are top-notch, as expected. However, I only rate this Bible 3 stars because of the multiple types of errors regarding the use of italics in the four Gospels.
The first error has already been mentioned in another review: Old Testament quotes are italicized in the book of Mark. I don’t have a huge problem with this, but italics are used in the NKJV to denote supplied words, not Old Testament quotes.
The second error is worse. In the books of Matthew, Luke, and John, supplied words are NOT italicized in red-letter sections.
Perhaps this review seems a bit harsh, but for the price of this Bible, I would expect these kinds of basic errors to be caught and fixed before production.

This is an excellent Bible! The quality and craftsmanship is great! I certainly love the concord, turquoise, and cameo (have them all), and other Cambridge bibles, but I also appreciate this elegant updated layout and design. This was certainly needed for a premium NKJV bible.
I have used this Bible now for a few months and have thoroughly enjoyed reading and preaching from it. The goatskin is the same great quality you would expect from Cambridge. The font is very readable, and the verse by verse layout is perfect for preaching. I also love the red and black contrast of the chapter and verse numbers with the words. Makes it even easier to quickly locate verses when teaching/preaching.
Overall, this is an excellent Bible! I would recommend it to anyone looking for a quality premium NKJV Bible.
