| Re: Newberry Study Bible | | I own the standard Newberry Bible which out of all the different Bibles i have, it's by far the greatest study Bible. The standard (not wide margin) is a little cheaper for those interested. I'm seriously thinking of getting the wide margin also and i believe you can get it in large print. Not sure as of yet. Have emailed Mr. Penfold, because of one of the comments in regards to one person saying they had theres in large print.
The wide margin that has been mentioned and the standard one also are both the ones Ron is talking about getting with the single column text with the margins on both sides of the page if you get it from Penfold Publishers.

| Re: | | Thanks for those links. I had not heard of the Wide Margin edition. The [url=http://www.penfoldbooks.com/special.php]link[/url] shows clearly what I meant by the wide central margin with more narrow margins on each side.
The double wide margin edition shown here would need to be used at a study desk I think. To stand and preach holding one of these very wide books puts a lot of strain on the bindings, but margins for personal notes like these can be very valuable. _________________ Ron Bailey

Thanks for those links. I had not heard of the Wide Margin edition.
Your very welcome friend. As soon as i hear from Mr. Penfold about it being or not being in Large Print, i'll let you and everyone know. I wrote him several days ago and haven't heard from him yet. Should i have required by pony express to have received an answer by now ? :-P |

| Re: | | Ron,
Another thing that you could help me with if you don't mind. At the front of the Newberry Bible is where it explains all one needs to know on using this Bible as in knowing English. Well, thats not working out to good for me. Seems the more i look into it the more confused i get. Any chance you might have some sites that explain all that one needs to know in regards to this studying this Bible ?
I've notice for instance that even though i can find out what a verb is, etc. Theres other things that i don't have a clue as to what it is ? I hope i'm explaining things to convey to you what i mean.
For me, its still the best study Bible out there and i want to take advantage of all it has to offer. As you well know if you open your Newberry Study Bible you'll notice so very much is said that one can't possibly understand like: The Hebrew Conjunctions, many things like that, and even some plain ole English that i'm suppose to know. Just need some help. Thank you Ron |

| Re: What study bible ? | | I just bought the Thompson Chain NASB last week, and so far love it. Some might complain that the study notes being in the back of the bible is not as convenient as a Life Application(which I also am fortunate enough to have), but there is so much study material and reference in this bible. My dad suggested this, except his is the NKJV, and I think he said he has had his for 30 years, and was his sole Bible for preaching.
I sat down with the Macarthur Bible, the Thompson Chain, the Legacy, and a couple of other, and just compared them. Over all I went with the thumb indexed Thompson Chain. I think you will like it.

| Re: | | I am actually leaning towards the Newberry, I can see how this can be an increasing blessing the more language "skills" one learns with time.... but i am still in the "valley of decision" :-) _________________ CHRISTIAN
