All of our English translations are great. We are truly blessed, but what keeps the CSB in my daily reading is that they bold the OT references in the NT. Brings everything to life for me. Thanks, Tim!

@BenjaminAnderson21 3 месяца назад

I've had my Slate edition pre-ordered since September when I saw it on Lifeway's website. Excited to have it in my hands soon. Fun fact. Not only can you get the big boy wide margin, which I also have but you can get this same layout and pagination in the Single Column compact editions in blue or brown leathertouch. Would love to see that in a Handcrafted Edition someday like they are doing with the coming soon Personal Size (aka CSB Pitt Minion lookalike). I also have had that on pre-order in Slate since September. So, all that to say you can get this layout, format in 3 Sizes, Big, Mediumish, and mini me.

Great review Tim. You sold me on the slate personal size. Looks lovely. It'll be the first csb that I own. I came across a deal for 37% off online so how could I resist? so I've pre-ordered 😁

@thomasshannon7793 3 месяца назад

Love your consistently thorough, detailed reviews, Tim. This one, in burgundy, is perfect for my wife. All the bells and whistles, as they say. My goal is outfitting my family (my wife, 2 sons and their wives) each with a premium Bible in their primary version (2-NKJV, 1-ESV, 2-CSB, 1-KJV). It's gonna be a budget challenge for this old retiree, but fun. To that end, I'm very thankful that I have you and the other Pastor Tim (Nickels) to help me get the best fit. God bless you, Sir.

Thanks for the review Tim. Here in the next couple weeks you may also review the CSB Personal Size (not single-column) from the Handcrafted collection that's slated to release on May 1st. If you do, I assume you'd compare it with this bible here, but would you also consider comparing it with the Schuyler PSQ? I'm currently really torn between those two!

@andrewherman8157 2 месяца назад

Definitely a beautiful Bible. I do understand the margin change, though for me that bumps the old edition up a bit in the rankings. The margin in the older edition was enough to get some small notes, but in the newer edition I don't think that's the case.

Interesting. My only exposure to CSB is its usage in the Lifeway Sunday School materials and with that limited use I still prefer my LSB/NASB95/ESV trio. But we just got a new pastor and I've noticed he uses CSB so I might have to add one to my collection.

@timwildsmith 3 месяца назад

@22prathu 3 месяца назад

Nice review, Tim.. apart from translation, which is the best single column text block, ESV Heriatge, or this CSB one..

@timwildsmith 3 месяца назад

Tough call! I really like both a lot!

@justinpowell534 3 месяца назад

I absolutely love this text block! I have the wide-margin version in black leather touch and its my favorite for daily reading. I am curious if they have fixed two of the printing errors I've found: Numbers 16:2 is printed "two hundred fifty..." while in other CSB text blocks it is correctly "two hundred and fifty" Judges 20:15 the verse number 15 is bolded black not red as it should be. I am only in 1 Samuel as of now so I'm not sure if similar issues occur again but it would be cool to know if they had been fixed. This updated personal size would be so much more portable! Although it doesn't look like it would lay as flat and I'm spoilt with no text in the gutter due to the margin. Thank you for everything you do Tim and greetings from South Africa! Edit: Just saw the lined note paper! That is amazing. Could you test the paper with Pigma Micron pens? I find that my copy of the non-handcrafted version can still bleed a bit much, curious if this is more premium paper

@timchesonis 3 месяца назад

I bought one and it is supposed to ship on March 15 and I can’t wait! How does this particular Bible compare with Schuyler Bibles in reference to craftsmanship? Let’s assume that the Schuyler is a 10 out of 10, what does this Bible rate in quality and craftsmanship and layout?

@JesusLovesYouPerfectly 3 месяца назад

i have the CSB Verse by Verse Reference bible in Goatskin from the HHC and it's awesome

@timwildsmith 3 месяца назад

@JesusLovesYouPerfectly 3 месяца назад

thanks, i recently just got the Schuyler Quentel in NIV in that Tuscany Italian Aniline Calfskin and, it's like you said, a very thick piece of leather. Also, i can see a lot of skin pores on mine. it's pretty cool. it's a very, very smooth but very thick leather. And, the words of Christ are red letter which is pretty cool, even though i know that's just a publisher's choice. i'm similar to you in that, i'll take a bible with or without red letter text in the Gospels. for me, if i pick out a bible and it automatically comes with Red Letter text, then great. if it doesn't, that's fine too.

@triciafriesen3693 3 месяца назад

Those red accents are so lovely. I think there are some non-premium Holman Bibles that offer that, right? Like a verse-by-verse maybe? That is something I would be interested in. I'm learning more and more that I really appreciate a little colour accent on the pages. I don't have a CSB Single Column Personal size yet but it's been on my radar for nearly a year. Thanks for the review!

Hey Tim! Quick question. I received my Bible today. I’m not very familiar with this type of leather. Very soft. My question is it seems as if there are a bunch of cracks in the leather already. And a few “line bumps” on the leather that increase when opening the Bible. Is this normal for this leather? My concern is if it will uphold with the daily use. Thank you!
