I finally got a chance to see the Newberry Large Print Single Column Reference Study Bible in person. The reps in the CPE booth flagged me down to give me a demonstration of its features and I am grateful they did. I was more than impressed. The paper is thick and opaque and print quality is dark and sharp. It looks like an excellent Bible for study. They also have a pocket edition, wide margin, and an interleaved edition.
Greetings Randy,
Really enjoy reading your reviews. Can you please answer a couple questions on the new large print NewBerry Bible.? Is the cover leather lined? And how is the opacity of the paper?
Thanks for your time, Doug Thompson
Hi Doug. I’m almost positive it had a paste-down liner. The paper was highly opaque. It did have a slight blue tint, but it was just noticeable. I’m not sure how thick it was. I mostly watched the rep thumb through it. I hope to be able to review one soon.
Thanks for getting back to me Randy. I went ahead & ordered one through amazon, $60.00
Awesome! Please let us know how you like it if you have a chance.
I got one of these Newberry Bible’s and it is certainly the best study Bible I have used. It is a joy to see how the Greek and Hebrew works together to open the text. Also, I have 2 longprimers with biblical names dictionaries, but the Newberry has the name meanings on the page, which is especially helpful in the old testament. I look forward to seeing a proper review soon. This Scottish Bible is one of the best examples of the beauty of Scotch Bible printing.
Thanks! I haven’t gotten it yet. I need to follow up on that. Thanks for the reminder.
