I have one of these for the New Testament in the ASV translation and it’s massive! I love it! Fits a whole size sticky note in the margins. Love love love it!!
Thank you for this review! Fully agree would definitely would like them to get licensing for more modern translations (NIV, CSB,ESV). As an avid notetaker in my Bible (not art just straight notes), I would love 1 full lined blank page on the left for notes with scripture to the left and maybe even more column space for more notes on the scripture page. Note takers really want lots of lined space for notes. If they made this I would purchase in a heartbeat - it would be the ideal Bible in a spiral...
Thanks, Tim. Interesting, but the price is a deterrent for me. For $130 you can get a nice calfskin edition of the Church Bible Publishers’ Notetaker’s Bible with 2 1/2 inch margins. Actually there are quite a few notetaker and journaling Bibles available. Maybe you could do some reviews on them? I am enjoying the LSB wide margin for Bible study and note taking. Blessings.
I like the look and idea of this. I can never really mark up a Bible, but a spiral bound one feels more right if I would ever write in it, just a like school notebook.
This does look really promising! But like what you said (and others), it'd be nice if they come out with more translations, even if its just a NKJV. And it seems expensive, but I guess if you wanna splurge on the kids studying a Bible (or yourself or someone else), it'd be a handy set to have. Thanks for showing us this set, Tim :)
It is a really cool idea but could definitely be cost prohibitive. I get it, the paper and the coil alone warrant the price- comparing it to a yearly planner of the same quality and you’re at the same price point. It would be cool if they did a more economic edition with thinner paper and a wire coil or if they sold the books individually. It would still put you up there for the whole Bible, but would be totally doable if you wanted to go in depth in one book. As for the translations, it seems odd to me that they would choose this super accessible format for the least accessible translations, lol. Hoping for a NRSV version myself but I know I’m in the minority 😂
Love the concept..too expensive for me. I just think about how all my notebooks end up looking after a few years. How easy would it be for a page to get torn out or partly torn out?
Still $150 for 5 notebooks is unimpressive. For $150, I want a leather, large font, wide margin Bible. Sure, it's nice notebooks, but it's still a notebook. Just my opinion. I wouldn't spend more than $75 on these and even that would be a stretch
I will probably get the Spiral Bible in KJV version just because I’ve never read that translation before. However they don’t have licensing from publishers to get some of the more common versions like ESV or NASB yet.
I like these. I do understand that they are sticking to the ones that are not restricted by copyright. It would probably be more expensive if they have to license other translations.
Wow love the idea Tim! However 2 issues for me - only KJV, (when will they have an ESV or NASB versions available I wonder) and then the $185 price tag. Maybe Spiral Bible will gift me one to review because I really do love the idea especially for study, deep study which I am involved in currently as I prepare for my future in church ministry.
Check out Crossway’s ESV Journaling Interleaved Edition Bible. It has a blank page between each page of texts for lots of notes. Or the ESV Single Column large print Journaling Bible. There are lots of choices out there now. Blessings.
@@abba2me Yes thank you, I should have put that in my comments, $48 (with crossway discount) only one volume so a bit more portable I think the interleaved page gives tons more room for writing notes! I do like that the spiral can be laid flat with only one side open because it is pretty hard to fold back a hardback on itself !!! That is really the greatest feature of the spiral bound. Spiral Bible did send me a coupon for 20% off and free shipping so the price for 5 volumes would drop to $154 , but still pricey for me.
@@Mb2IseeU Thanks Erin. Nice alternative. Looks like pretty small fount but does give you the spiral fold over and plenty of room, I think this is a 12 x 13.5 x 3 instead of the 8.5 x 11 of the Sprial Bible
I wish it were available in other translations. Do you know if the decision to use the KJV is an expense issue or a doctrinal stand? Are there any future plans for differing translations?
This looks really nice - and useful. As an inveterate note taker in my Bibles, I love this. Tim - do you know if they will be on Amazon? Living in the great land of 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺 means sometimes smaller publishers do not ship this far. Many thanks for the video. I think this concept will catch on. 😊🙏💕
I really, really like this concept, but don't like how there's only two words on many of the lines. I hope they reformat this and rerelease it. Then I might purchase it.
Hopefully they’ll do this in different versions. It’s a great concept!
I've seen BEAUTIFUL spiral Bibles in Spanish... Hopefully spiral Bibles will grow in popularity!
I have one of these for the New Testament in the ASV translation and it’s massive! I love it! Fits a whole size sticky note in the margins. Love love love it!!
Good to know!
These are awesome! I’ve been patiently waiting for them to do a more modern translation!

Crossway has an ESV Interleaved Journaling Bible that has a blank page between each page of text for extensive note taking. Blessings.

I love the idea, anything that might help different folks engage with Bible is on the right track. For me the plus would be that it lays totally flat!
This would be perfect for study and not being afraid to mark in it out of fear of ruining your ‘nice’ bible!
Yes!
I love mine. It just arrived and I was able to order in the New Living Translation. So excited. I am ready for bible study. Let’s go!

Thank you for sharing!
Dayspring has been doing spiral bound bibles with wide margins for a long time, they are really nice. And not this expensive. Maybe $65.

Thanks for the book plate and extras! Mine came today! Looking forward to the book arriving soon!
Brother Tim, this set will be good for bible class and Sunday School. Thanks for bringing this yo to my attention.
You’re welcome!
I love this idea. I'm currently using the scripture notebooks for creative journaling, but these would also be good for the same purpose.
For sure!
These look fantastic. However, I think the spiral edge of the pages should be reinforced for longevity.
Thank you for sharing this with us 🙏 - Going to have my family and friends gift them to me for my birthday (March) 🎂 🥳 📖 ✝️

No problem!
Love this idea & process!
Glad you like it!

I think it’s a cool idea. Hope one day they will do a NIV.
Dayspring has a spiral bound NIV. They call it the Illustrated Bible, love mine.
I like these. I do understand that they are sticking to the ones that are not restricted by copyright. It would probably be more expensive if they have to license other translations.
Gorgeous ❤❤❤
Hopefully in the future, they'll have NKJV, NASB, NLT, NIV, etc

Dayspring has an amazing spiral bound bible with a leather like cover and big 3.5 a 4 inch margins. It’s much classier looking than these.
@@Mb2IseeU And how much are they?
@@Mb2IseeU Thanks Erin. Nice alternative. Looks like pretty small fount but does give you the spiral fold over and plenty of room, I think this is a 12 x 13.5 x 3 instead of the 8.5 x 11 of the Sprial Bible
Ridiculously expensive, but really cool idea
Or to spiral each 📖 📚 🤔🤩
Nice
I wish it were available in other translations. Do you know if the decision to use the KJV is an expense issue or a doctrinal stand? Are there any future plans for differing translations?
I don’t know for sure. My guess is that it’s because KJV doesn’t require a license.

I looked on Amazon, but did not see them.
@@timwildsmith Thanks so much for looking, Tim. Guess we shall wait and see. 🙏
I did that (deconstructed and 3 hole punched) with a paper Bible 30 years ago. Will they have a NKJ version.
I can’t see anything on the page just pink no prices and I looked on Amazon can someone help me here please
@timwildsmith does this have the psalms in it? Or is it missing any of the books?
I am interested but I would have to carry all of the journals with me to church. That seems heavy and difficult. Do you have suggestions??😊
I really, really like this concept, but don't like how there's only two words on many of the lines. I hope they reformat this and rerelease it. Then I might purchase it.
I like the concept but I feel it’s costly to get so I’ll stick to note taking bible for $20 bucks
That's cool, have you reviewed the
Catholic Bible Press
NRSV, Catholic Bible, Thinline Edition, Genuine Leather, Brown ? LoL
God Bless You. Are the words of Jesus in red?
I like this kind of format but they never offer them in a modern translation such as ESV or NKJV.
Loose leaf editions would be great but the only ones I’ve found are out of print, or bad quality.
Yes, I’d like to see them in other translations.
Where do you find all these cool Bibles?! I want one of these! 😂
They reached out to me!
@@timwildsmith Keep it up, Tim! These are great!
Where I could buy it
Check out the link in the video description.
I am unimpressed with how the text is laid out in Matthew -- why leave only a word or two to the next line? It looks awful.
