Bible Rebinding: How I Measure and Cut Leather
This is just a quick look at the system I've settled on (for now) for measuring, marking, and cutting leather for rebinding Bibles. I initially found this to be a tricky part of rebinding, but have had good and efficient success with these methods. Let me know if this is helpful to you, or if you have improvements to suggest!

A quick video going over two recent KJV rebinds, one from a brand new text block, another from a very old one (about 20 years of daily use). I think these are my 28th and 29th rebinds, but I may have missed some :) Interested in a rebind of your own? email me at drewtake2@gmail.com or message me on Instagram @biblesbydrew Thanks for watching!

A RARE Greek New Testament (UBS4 Reader's Edition in Top Grain Leather)
Просмотров 756Год назад
Quick overview of an excellent but long out of print Greek New Testament. This guy originally retailed for $150, but is now almost impossible to find. Nice and smooth leather with a nice grain, but the real highlight of this edition is the awesome text block with gold page edges, large print, and super thick paper. Happy to have found this guy!

Watch Me Read the Passion Translation for the First Time

Join me for a ride through the first four chapters of John in the Passion Translation (TPT) Here are my top three takeaways: - TPT is much more than a translation. Its extensive footnotes include everything from text critical notices to word studies to allegorical interpretations. Thus, this translation does encourage in-depth study of the Bible and attention to the details of the text. - TPT h...

    It saddens me to see anyone reading from TPT. This is not a translation at all, as Brian Simmons, the one and only 'translator' has no formal training. Instead, he claims to receive 'downloads' from God. The fact that it has been accepted and used by the hyper-heretical organization known as Bethel Church tells us quite a lot.

    1) I see no reason to profit Red China with my Bible purchases. It saddens me to see that over my long lifetime Bible manufacturers have counted on increasing their profits even on expensive Bibles by adopting this practice. When I was a child in the fifties and sixties virtually all our American Bibles were made and printed and bound here. 2) I still have a Thompson Chain Reference Bible from the seventies that I used as a main Bible in college and still use at times. Amortizing that cost over the past 45 years, how much did it actually cost me annually to have what was then an expensive Bible? Unless you tear your Bibles up yearly or mark in them like toddlers, the annual cost of even the best Schuyler and Cambridge Bibles is quite low. 3) When David and Solomon were planning and building the temple, did they go to Home Depot or Wal Mart for their materials? No. They, and God, wanted the best for His worship. Why should our Bibles be any different? I hear those who say it's just hedonistic self indulgence to buy a $200+ Bible. Well, I want the best for the reading and study of His word. 4) I'm a guy who, other than a watch and a cross, doesn't wear jewelry. I like the sensual feel of premium French Bible paper, the odor of the finest leathers available, the durable stitching, and the 'feel' in my hands when I visit the Lord through his holy word. I make no apologies for that. 5) Best wishes to you in your ministry from the Houston area!

    By any chance, do you know if the Greek-English version includes de dictionary from the only Greek version? I am getting very excited with my studies of faith and bible, and since I have been realizing translations are very diverse and multiple, I thought on getting the greek text too. But my greek is super beginner level. So I was considering this text. The other question I have is if this book includes the index of quotations from old testament and new testament. I am interested on learning what Jesus quotes, for example. My other question is, Do you know if there is any New Testament like this, but instead of Greek-English, in Greek-Spanish? Would you say English is closer to Greek or Spanish? Do you have any other recommendation you like more for Greek-English NT? Thank you for your video. God bless.

    I’m willing to pay extra for a bible with pages that are heavy enough that print does not bleed from the other side of the page. Paper is graded by weight so a nice heavy weight will prevent bleed and make it easier to separate the pages to the page I want. Also has to be lay flat and large print.

      @@setholesen6784 So, you call English archaic or dead....Greek and Hebrew as languages spoken back then, are dead, indeed. English, however, is not dead, and the English language of the KJV is richer and more descriptive for God's purpose than either Hebrew OR Greek and therefore it is a growth of perfection for God to choose English for the destination language of the bible he determined to publish in 1611. (that is a significant year in that it is shown many times in the King James Bible, whether you read the various printings of 1611, or the editions that followed, by the way). As for the translations, when the King James Bible is translated into other languages besides English it is not going to be exact, but close enough for people of other tongues to get to know God. Because he chose English, those of us who have been blessed to have English as our first language will have a higher responsibility to his word than those who do not have English as a first language. There is so much testimony and evidence to show us that God himself indeed, by his choice of words, even letters in the words (English), the book, chapter, and verse placements and numbers, that it is literally impossible to think that God took his hand off his word for an instant to allow mere men to decide which words, letters, numbers are to be used. No, All of Scripture from the end to the beginning is God's inspiration, using those he chose to have it accomplished. God also uses numbers extensively to 'stamp' his inspirational authorship. Remember, numbers per se were not found in Hebrew or Greek. The letters had numerical value. Again showing that English, is indeed a superior language to the Hebrew or Greek. Bear in mind that English in it's presentation bears likeness to both Hebrew and Greek (and Latin....ie Roman numerals), which again shows God's handiwork as all of creation has similarities when examined closely. To paraphrase Isaiah 46: 9,10, God says that he is God and there is no other, then he goes on to say that he knows the end from the beginning and he watches over history (beginning to end) to make sure that what he purposes to take place will indeed take place in his time as he pleases for his own pleasure. The bible is for God's pleasure and our learning, to get to know him and how he does things. The testimony found in the KJV is unique to itself. The testimony falls apart in ALL modern so-called translations because the choice of words, just for starters is not God's choice but rather men who think themselves smarter than God, apparently by choosing different words. The weaving of the Old Testament to the New Testament cannot be found in the modern translations for this reason as well, and people never know or understand how absolutely everything God says, where he says what he says, and the words he chooses to say what he says is to show us without doubt that he alone has done this. He didn't leave it up to some scholars who are all puffed up with their own estimation of their intellect and wisdom. No, God alone has done this. If you could go back in history and ask Moses, or any of the prophets of the OT, or Paul, Peter, or any of the other writers of the NT if they thought/knew they were writing holy scripture, do you think they'd have answered yes? Not likely.....they were merely writing what they were inspired of God to write, in obedience to him. Did they understand all that they wrote and how it would eventually all fit together in a published BOOK? Of course not! Only God knows that. Isaiah 34: 16 Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read: no one of these shall fail, none shall want her mate: for my mouth it hath commanded, and his spirit it hath gathered them. (The book of the LORD!......What is he talking about?) Which verse is that? Yeah, chapter 16, and count the words to 11. What word is that? READ! Ya think God isn't speaking to us?! That is just one example. There are literally thousands like that. The number of times particular words are used is also significant, and that breaks down when words are changed, or outright eliminated as happens in ALL modern translations. Some have removed entire verses! God is not happy about this. Everything has a time and a season with God, and our time is now....the winding down of the last days before the time of Jacob's trouble (when God pours his wrath out on the disobedient nation of Israel and the rest of the world who reject Jesus and his word). We are blessed with the perfect word of God in the King James Bible and it's our job to stand on it and rebuke those who would push dumb idols on the ignorant and uninformed. That's what those modern bibles are because they are not of God and are not living. God's word is LIVING and sharper than a 2 edged sword. Yes, that work 'quick' in Hebrews means living, but people reading modern translations wouldn't understand that. When Jesus said he'd come quickly, he did not mean fast, either.....He IS living....risen from the dead! So bottom line is, do we use our own intellect and try to reason our way to truth, or do we fall before God and admit our nothingness and brokenness acknowledging that without him we can do and know nothing and boldly ask for forgiveness and allow the Holy Ghost to teach us? I guarantee, the Holy Ghost will guide nobody to modern translations! Judging from what you've said, I would come to the conclusion that you didn't even watch the video I offered, so it might be useless to suggest another look. However, as for your comments about the history of the bible, that is dealt with extensively on that same channel, and you might get a better insight if you truly are seeking truth. What if we KJV only people are right? Are you willing to stand before Jesus at the Judgement Seat with your NIV or whatever else? You won't get a crown for that, guaranteed! It'll get burned up like wood, hay and stubble......that is if you are indeed saved. Many people who think they are saved and stuck on those false bibles will find themselves at the great white throne judgement after hearing the words from Jesus that he NEVER knew them! Scariest words in the bible!!!

That plus I can't afford to spend $100 or $200 on one. I can probably buy five hardcover Bibles in different translations for the price of one Premium Bible.

    *God promised to send us a famine of hearing His word in the last days. Read Amos **8:11**. I knew farmers who had buried bibles and guns for when someone came to take the bibles away from us. That prophecy has already been perfectly fulfilled but it was done **_supernaturally!_** This is the separation of the WHEAT from the tares too, tares just argue and maybe quote verses about how God's word will never pass away which is true because His true Children hid them in their hearts and some are making videos to preserve what His words really are. WHEAT always immediately investigate this and begin helping to spread the news after they learn it's true. WHEAT can type in (proof of bible change residue junkie) and learn all about this and see all of the previously misinterpreted prophecies being fulfilled supernaturally and have their faith strengthened unimaginably! Tares can just keep arguing and hear Jesus explaining it at the Gate.* ❤✝️💪ruclips.net/p/PLOTw4zBND_NPf66nKUONLoe2MNFLb5LQr *P.S.
