It is a great reader for on the go. Perfect for a flowing text and plenty of space to write notes and references.

I have this Bible in the black Trutone. I have been amazed at how clear and easy it is on my eyes! I had never tried single column before. Or black letter. It's such a difference! I've always used double column/red letter. It really didn't occur to me there was anything else. But after trying this, I don't think I can ever go back. The 9.25 font is also perfect for me. The only down side is the paper is a bit thin and I have to be careful. It's also a bit big/heavy to take to church. But that's okay. I have a little Compact for that. This is perfect for reading at home.

My Church also uses the ESV. It is considered to be the best “word for word” literal translation of the original texts. I have a “study” version with translators’ notes, so this avoids having to write anything myself! I find it useful to have a full set of the various revisions of the “Authorised Version” - the original King James, of course, followed by the Revised Version (1901) and the RSV (1st version, 1946/52 and second version 1971/72). I have not really bothered with the NKJV or the NRSV, however, as I was able to find a very good study version of the NRSV and as this is used by several Churches (the Church of England and the Catholic Church in Canada) it is worth having a version for reference and for the study notes. Essentially, I have not found it necessary to stray beyond the “King James Family” of Bibles, since these translations are accepted by so many Churches. For example, the NKJV is the preferred translation for the Eastern Orthodox Churches in English speaking countries and the Catholic Church in most countries uses either the ESV, or the NRSV (apart from the USA which has its own translation but the RSV has always been acknowledged there as the best version for teaching and study purposes). The NIV is quite a readable translation, as is the older New English Bible (essentially, a Presbyterian translation). I also have a Septuagint translation of the Old Testament and a complete translation of the Vulgate.
