  • So remember that video about my Allan NLT when I said I didn't really see a use for a premium Bible personally?
    Whelp. I'm going to need to eat these words. Here is my NRSV Zondervan Premium Bible, and I'm using it as my preaching/pulpit bible.

    The glue line you are seeing is the way the book block is attached to the leather cover. It is essentially a piece of leather from the cover glued in between the cover sheet and the piece of card stock. It should break in with use so it doesn't stick up as much. I recently got a premium bible and after a few months of frequent use it has broken it and is more flexible.

      Yeah. The back of it is more like what I expected. The front will work out though. Not too worried about it.

      @@revchadbrooks the front is overcast stitched. They do that so the first signature doesn’t separate from the rest of the book block. Overcast stitching used to be more common than it is today. But a lot of bibles still use it like these finer Zondervans and Oxfords.

    What's important is you use it. Not just a collection but your primary go-to Bible. That's the reason it's premium, because it's FOE LIFE! 😎

  • @catwoods5499
    @catwoods5499 Год назад +3

    The glue papers in the front back are supposed to be just like that👍it's the (edge line) that all the reviewers are talking about in their videos 😂🤣 all premium Bibles will it and I've noticed some lower end one's too. That's a genius Construction because it really helps that cover not fall apart from every day use.
    I gotta say I love the purple gold gilding 💜💛💜💛

    • @revchadbrooks

  • @MAMoreno
    @MAMoreno Год назад +1

    I'm divided on whether or not I want to wait for this same layout to be used with the 2021 updated edition of the NRSV. The downside is that this release doesn't contain the Apocrypha, unlike the current premium NRSVue on the market. The upside is that it has the single-column layout and the cross-references (and a generous enough margin for the occasional scribbled-in note).

    • @revchadbrooks

    I ordered this for my birthday, im a lutheran. I prefer nasb/nkjv but i have a large collection of every translation. Nrsv/nrsvue protestant cannon is hard to find. Most the ones in stock are w apocrypha and us protestanrs cant use that. It sucks the NIV kinda overwhelmingly took over and was more favored over nrsv. I wish nrsv was still used more often and produced

    Hey Chad, thanks for your video! I am a ESV, NASB, CSB guy and lately I’ve been having some interest in the NRSV. Why exactly do you like it? Besides being an ecumenical Bible. What do you think about the translation itself? Thoughts? Thanks again!

    • @revchadbrooks
      @revchadbrooks  Год назад +2

      Hey Armando! Here are a few reasons I dig it.
      • I'm familiar with it. Used it all through seminary and got really used to the language.
      • It's the expected translation for academic writing about scripture in many different circles (usually the mainline).
      • It is a really literal translation, descending from the RSV. You'd be surprised how much it reads like an ESV.
      • It translates the gender-neutral texts but doesn't stretch the translation philosophy into some other ideological directions (like I feel the CEB does).
      • Its ecumenical nature is helpful, but more directly in how it doesn't always try to lead down one or two more modern theological paths (like dispensationalism or modern complementarianism)
