I love that they have "THE WORD OF GOD" instead of "HOLY BIBLE" on the spine. That's very unique and it cuts right to the point. And I love the artwork gilding and the blue letter instead of red.

[@Yesica1993]

I love that too! Get one in a bright color, read it in public, and I'd bet people would ask about it!

[@j.woodbury412]

@@Yesica1993 I would like to have one, but I can't afford it. I hope you enjoy yours. I do wish they would come down on the price. If I could get one, I would most likely get it with just the art gilding. I would like to get the Lunar Yellow version. That black under gold art gilding looks so cool!

[@terryswails1191]

Love The Word of God on it,

[@Yesica1993]

Oh, I can't afford it either! That's why I'm kind of glad they don't do the ESV. (My preferred version.) It would make me covet something I can never have, LOL!@@j.woodbury412

[@Yesica1993]

@@j.woodbury412 Oh, I could never afford that. (That is why I am a bit glad they don't do the ESV, which is the translation I use. I'd be coveting one!)

After seeing your video, I asked my wife for this bible. (I also got her one too for Christmas). Thanks so much brother, I too am enjoying this bible. Take care.

[@Keep_preaching]

That is awesome!

[@WontonDisciple]

I use the Shepherd myself as my reader. Love the layouts they make and the paper rivals some of the best in my opinion. Blue is a great accent color, as it's close to black in the level of contrast against white paper. I also absolutely love that they use goatskin for the cover and the liner. Whatever they use, it's grainy and stiff enough to be able to hold open these big boys without it flopping like crazy. Still a nice feel in the hand, though.

[@chris2fur401]

I’m a Pentecostal pastor. I love a flexible Bible as I’m preaching. Also love the concord layout. I wish every translation offered a classic verse by verse concord-ish layout with center column references.

I have that same HL Lunar Yellow KJV w/Blue letter vs Red is amazing! Have the NKJV Shepherd in Sahara Blue and the Fox Orange NASB20 HIStory coming this month! The Lion sold me on Humble Lamb...my favorite Bibles (and I have Allan, Schuyler, Cambridge, and other premiums)!

[@Keep_preaching]

[@fl3urs.des.champs]

I have the Lion KJV in ethereal pink and the colour by itself just makes me so happy and makes me want to read scripture! It's an awesome bible :)

[@megalyon]

Same here, I love my ethereal pink KJV and my Purple

[@promisemochi]

i'm so torn! i love the HIStory edition with the extra art pages and size, but i adore the color of the ethereal pink and KJV is my favorite translation. then again, the shepherd version layout is gorgeous with the single column that flows more like a book. it's so hard to pick!!

[@GINZO4849]

I got the First Ed. HIStory in red because I wanted the mistakes as a reminder that we humans are very imperfect.

[@kapirk2244]

Agree. I have one, the HIStory, and plan to get the Lion. They are awesome!

[@618society7]

I agree. A clean text block with subheadings and white space and adequate space between the lines is the most important thing to me because there’s just so much chaos when they try and cram the text into Bibles to make them smaller. I sometimes will choose a translation based on whether the publisher has a clean easy to read text block. This one looks amazing. The legacy standard Bible published by 316 Publishing also has a very clean text block.

[@Yesica1993]

Their Bibles are stunning. Truly a work of art. In a way, it's good they don't do the ESV. It would make me covet something I can never afford! I love having, "The Word of God", on the spine. Nothing wrong with the classic, "Holy Bible." But sometimes we see a phrase so much that we don't even think about it anymore. This really catches your attention. I'd bet if you got one of those brighter ones, the yellow or orange, and were reading it in public, someone might ask you about it. What a great conversation starter about spiritual matters, especially for those who are shy! I wonder, also, if the blue would be easier on the eyes than the usual red. I would love to see one in person. The artwork inside is beyond gorgeous. My only concern would be, for the illustrations on the gilding, won't that fade or distort after you use it for a long time?

[@EMCBRUCE]

I have the Humble Lamb… it’s great

[@paulajohnson6409]

I'm a Humble Lamb addict. Love the color selection and fore edge gilt. The artwork and words of Christ in blue. Every member of my family has a Humble Lamb Kids and grandkids. I have the Lion the Shepherd a couple of first print editions and 3 NASB in Fox Orange on the way. ❤

[@Airik1111bibles]

The 1985-89 Open Bible is my lost on an island Bible, that or my old Thompson chain. Humble lamb definitely set itself apart , it's nice that they are using thicker leather now. I have the original 3rd printing of the NKJV it's got super dark blue art gilding but the covers a bit thin . That said it's still a cool bible regardless of the thin cover , its very unique . I don't use it though it's basically a talking piece. Probably gonna sale it so I can get a Schuyler or Allan. .... Someday ..LOL Been saying this for a couple years now....someday.

[@Airik1111bibles]

@Vicki H Amen ! The subject index is priceless .

[@Airik1111bibles]

@Vicki H You stopped making videos too. I got burnt out but also had some deaths in the family that were just too much for me. I need to start making vids again , it was fun before it became like a job. I want to just share bible again but cool ones that I find thrift shopping or ebay. I love finding old bibles that are unique , new bibles are getting boring like school text books with no charecter. 😉 Nice to hear from ya sister.

[@Brad-mc7ut]

Airik1111 Hope you do make more videos again, you videos were what intrigued me back in the day. After so many premiums, I'm now doing just that, hunting for older hard to find editions.

[@passageunlocked]

I love the word of God on it

[@jonathantemporal7523]

This has got to be the most beautiful Bible I've ever seen. I would buy one - most likely their Shepherd NKJV - right not, if not for the fact that I just got the NASB, Super Giant Print Reference Bible, Leathersoft (Zondervan), and another Bible - the Douay-Rheims bible large print edition (TAN Books) still on order. :( Praise the Lord and his word! Praise God - Father, Son and Holy Spirit!

[@robbyclark6915]

I have only recently been introduced to the premium Bible scene. I have a few CBP bibles but recently picked up a Cambridge Topaz KJV in the green GS and absolutely love this Bible! I picked the Topaz because of the new text style being used by Cambridge and the extra room in the margins. It allows me to go through and mark the difficult words and put my own definitions and thoughts. I get more control over the text as well as absolutely loving the new layout and text. I am a red letter guy and Cambridge is second to no one imo with their red letter. I'm not a fan of the lion in the gilting on the Humble Lamb but I love the artwork scattered throughout the text of the Bible! I'm an artist myself so I really appreciate great art. I wasn't a fan of the blue letter HL uses but have become much more open to it since getting into the "scene". This video is really peaking my interest in a HL Bible. I'm wanting a NKJV next but I kind of want to see how they handle the difficult words problem inherent with the KJV text. Decisions, decisions?

[@sdhute]

Getting ready to pickup the new humble lamb Lion. How has yours been holding up?

[@catherinetravella6293]

Thanks for sharing your perspective around the binding that is so good to know and few address it on this forum.

I have one but to be honest it has a funky chemically smell and and I’m looking for a resource to get into worshipping through the KJV

[@Emmanuel.Ladella]

As a believer there is nothing that you'd love more than a Bible. You always want to carry it with you. Read it, write in it make notes in it and make notes with it. However I recently came across this new stuff about premium Bibles! What is the purpose of a Bible? Why are the premium Bibles sooo expensive? I finally got myself the famous Concord wide margin (calfskin) which was very much expensive. Funny thing is this isn't the premium one yet. The goat skin one is their premium one which costs twice the price. No doubt that I really enjoy my wide margin Bible, but I seriously didn't understand why this Bible is that expensive. I do have a holman and Thomas Nelson study bibles which are bound in leather but they literally cost way less than the cambridge wide margin. While the Concord wide margin is a must have Bible, it doesn't justify that it is way too expensive. I seriously don't understand why"Bible manufacturers" make Bibles soo expensive. They are really well crafted and made to last but the price should be more affordable. Were talking about Bibles and not smartphones. As much as I wish I had a humble lamb. Their price seems way too much. I'd rather buy 15 Bibles and give them away to people who love to have a Bible.

[@Keep_preaching]

Each person has to decide if the price of a premium bible is justifiable. Some make really good money and spending $200+ on a bible is not difficult, others $50 would be more reasonable for their budget. Others are perfectly content with a cheap bible, some want a bible to truly last and happy to pay for it. The reason a Cambridge is more expensive than say a Nelson, is they use much better paper, increasingly better spine reinforcement, and the binding of the Bible itself is done tighter with more signatures, and they are printed by jongbloed in the Netherlands instead of China or Korea. All of these attributes allow the Bible to last longer and cost more. 10 years ago premium bibles were much cheaper, prices have slowly risen through the years.

[@Emmanuel.Ladella]

@@Keep_preaching Yes brother. Like you said the price of the Bible depends from person to person. I do have a Westminster reference Bible from TBS, and I know the awesome work jongbloed does. While I love my cambridge wide margin more than anything. I felt it should have been a little less pricey or at least they should have had some cheaper options. Sadly in Hyderabad India where we live, we don't get premium Bibles at all I literally called every Bible seller in the city and none of them don't even know cambridge 😁. And if we have to order one from the us store. Imagine the price and shipping 😅. We don't even have good book binders here bro. Forget Bible rebinding they don't even do books here. All they do is hard covers 😑. In the future either I have to come to us or seriously follow all your rebinding videos and do it myself 😄
