It’s the ESV Preachers Bible - Single Column - Verse by Verse - for me! Good layout, size of print for preaching and general reading/study. The format makes it much easier to catch the phrase you are looking for when on the pulpit. Allan
For KJV fan's I think the Cambridge Concord and Turquoise are excellent preaching bibles . I personally like the NASB reader edition by RL Allan , the layout is perfect for preaching and it's not to heavy. I think the Nelson bibles are a bit too floppy, their bindings are very loose also the spine on some of their premiums don't feel solid in hand. It does depend on the style of the preacher esp if they walk and talk holding the Bible in one hand . Some premiums are like wet noodles so for me that really would be an issue.
@MCGaar Not my ESV thinline Heirloom widemargin , it has a very solid spine that rest in the hand . I don't use it but if it were an NKJV in that's style I'd love it. The leather is really tough , I like that stuff. I do have the thinline NKJV thats the same size but the spine is not as well built. It all depends on certain series and years they were made too.
Steadfast handy size is my sword of choice. Both NASB and LSB though the LSB is a little thinner because they removed the concordance. It’s smaller than the Q but larger than the PSQ. Never get lost in the single column vbv layout.
Great video and comparisons! I too stick with the Schuyler PSQ especially if I know I’ll be holding my Bible a lot. But I have found the Cambridge Topaz to be fantastic when not moving around a lot. Double column, verse-by-verse AND the verse numbers are red when the text is black and black when the words of Christ are red. Just super easy to find your place. I don’t do a lot of Lectern or Pulpit teaching, but I do stay in small groups or on the go study and you can’t beat the PSQ for that.
I was surprised how bold the Q's verse numbers were. That's the hardest part of preaching from paragraphs for me - specifically in the Cambridges. I think I could totally preach from a Q!
I use the NKJV preaching Bible in calfskin from Thomas Nelson when I preach. I like their comfort print. It’s so easy to read from. Also love verse by verse format. That’s all personal preference of course
I have a slate grey PSQ ESV. Its a fantastic small Bible. I really like the design. I'd like to get a regular size Quentel in slate, but they're no longer printing 11pt text size.
Currently my favorite Bible (my main Bible) is the Legacy Standard Bible Inside Column Reference. Because I am a double column, paragraph format guy, this was quite surprising to me. Took a little getting used to, but I soon fell in love with it.
The Thomas Nelson NKJV Personal Size End of Verse Reference Bible Premier Edition would be perfect if you love the Schuyler PSQ because they are about same size and the NKJV is verse by verse. It has 36gsm paper and is very readable.
I’ll bet you’d love the nkjv compact center column reference vbv based on what I’ve seen of your preferences. It’s the most readable compact I’ve ever seen.
It seems like it all really depends on preference as I have even taught from a Pitt Minion!😂 I will say that I have found the PSQ to be my easiest lookup bible. A verse is quoted and I can turn to it much quicker than the other bibles. So far, I am using an ESV Creeds & Confessions bible to preach & teach.
It is odd to see a Bible that does not come with a commentary with it. For me there is the never-ending struggle to find a Bible that has the MOST in what I hope a good/great translation should have in it- translationally. I know there are many factors. -translation, -commentary, -cover, -print-size, -size of Bible, -cross-references, -paper, and others
That would depend on layout preferences. I don’t have many KJVs but I know I would like the Schuyler Canterbury PSQ or on the cheaper end, a Thomas Nelson, maybe compact center-column reference, or regular compact. The thing about the KJV is that most publishers have an edition and for the most part they all have similar layouts.
It is 100% the work of the Spirit. That is not the point of the comparison. We will better be able to teach the word of God if we are using a Bible we can read easily.
Perhaps by a book on comparative mythology.. It would be wise to see the original versions of the Bible stories.. the creation and the enuma elish, Noah and Gilgamesh, Hercules and Samson the story of Ishtar and the book of Esther, how about you read Psalm 104 and the Egyptian "hymn to aten" next to each other and see how it's a word for word copy.... You people spend so much time on "Bible education" but completely ignore where they origionate.. perhaps but a book on "dying and rising gods" the only distinction Jesus has is being the most recent of many many other gods who have conquered death... The ignorance is just kind boggling
Many stories have parallels in other cultures. The real question is which collection of stories best describes the real world. And we would argue that the Bible does it best.

My pastor uses that one. It’s certainly a great preaching edition!
For myself, I preach from a Schuyler CSB Quentel (in slate gray). I am planning on using my Schuyler CSB PSQ (Tuscany) to teach Bible studies etc.
The regular and PSQ make a great combo!

Yes. The premiums can be annoying especially if they are wider Bibles. Nice to hold but difficult to manage sometimes.
Crossways way more floppy than Thomas Nelson. But that’s why I like them.

I love the handy size. It’s really the best of so many worlds!
Great video! Thank you for your study. If I was voting, I would say the PSQ is the best for preaching. The size and the readability cannot be beat
Agreed!

Cambridge is one I have yet to acquaint myself with. I'm probably missing out I know:)

It is really nice to use!

The NKJV comfort print is may favorite of the translations. I could have mentioned the Maclaren series. That is a vbv as well.
@@biblecornerreviews it is! Definitely good stuff. How great would it be to have a ESV in comfort print?
I have the Schuyler NASB PSQ FY and absolutely love it. Great video
Those FY look amazing!
I have a slate grey PSQ ESV. Its a fantastic small Bible. I really like the design. I'd like to get a regular size Quentel in slate, but they're no longer printing 11pt text size.
I have slate in mismatching translations😂. It is one of my favorite of Schuyler’s colors.
I think the Cambridge Topaz is excellent for this
I've liked what I've seen of that one.
Currently my favorite Bible (my main Bible) is the Legacy Standard Bible Inside Column Reference.
Because I am a double column, paragraph format guy, this was quite surprising to me. Took a little getting used to, but I soon fell in love with it.
That’s a great layout! Definitely user friendly once you get used to the design.
Good video, brother!
Looking into the Schuyler Stridon for preaching
That is quite similar to the ESV vbv, with cross references.
The Thomas Nelson NKJV Personal Size End of Verse Reference Bible Premier Edition would be perfect if you love the Schuyler PSQ because they are about same size and the NKJV is verse by verse. It has 36gsm paper and is very readable.
I'll have to look into that one!
I’ll bet you’d love the nkjv compact center column reference vbv based on what I’ve seen of your preferences. It’s the most readable compact I’ve ever seen.
I do like that one a lot. Wish it didn’t have lines dividing the references (a personal dislike), but as far as size and layout it’s great!
It seems like it all really depends on preference as I have even taught from a Pitt Minion!😂 I will say that I have found the PSQ to be my easiest lookup bible. A verse is quoted and I can turn to it much quicker than the other bibles. So far, I am using an ESV Creeds & Confessions bible to preach & teach.
It does! The one you use the most will most likely be the easiest to teach with.
ESV and CSB are the last I would teach or preach out of with the exception of the NLT.
Great vid! What's the margin width of the PSQ compared to the Quentel?
They both have 1/2” margins!
I have the CSB verse by verse Bible. It's perfect for preaching ❤
I’ve been using mine for all my note-taking. I wish other translations had that exact layout!
The best preaching bible is an iPad or printing your sermon on paper.
How dare you. Shameful

PSQ all the way!!!
What KJV would you recommend for preaching and traveling?
That would depend on layout preferences. I don’t have many KJVs but I know I would like the Schuyler Canterbury PSQ or on the cheaper end, a Thomas Nelson, maybe compact center-column reference, or regular compact. The thing about the KJV is that most publishers have an edition and for the most part they all have similar layouts.
Hello, do you have a link to all these?
I’ll put links to them in the description! Thanks for the suggestion.
@@biblecornerreviews Thank you!
Links have been added!
@@biblecornerreviews Thanks again 😊
Preaching comes from the Holy Ghost, not various translations. Why are today's people so obsessed with rating and ranking everything?
It is 100% the work of the Spirit. That is not the point of the comparison. We will better be able to teach the word of God if we are using a Bible we can read easily.

Bible corner review, forget the erroneous ES, CSB or the NASB. They are from the erroneous Alexandrian of Egypt texts.
Yet somehow they say much the same thing as KJV, NIV, and NKjV…
@@biblecornerreviews they also have lots of difference and leave 6000 words out.
Forget modern translations, because they are erroneous.
Nice bibles, bad translations
