NASB - Black Genuine Leather - Regular Size - Thompson Chain Reference Bible (016060) Leather Bound – January 1, 1993

This is a terrific Bible. NASB is a conservative, literal, trustworthy translation. Thompson's is a wonderous system for tying together spiritual truths. The page layout is superb, lots of room for notes. The study helps are tremendously comprehensive; you could spend a lifetime exploring them. The presentation is elegant. It would hve been nice if the the spine were "hubbed", but that's a trivial critique. This is a fantastic edition of the Bible. Unless you're the type who's never satisfied with anything, you will not be disappointed with this one.

I have no doubt that when I show up at the gates with this finely crafted Bible I will have no problem getting in.Seriously, I have a Thompson King James Version that's 31 years old and I'm sure my kids will carry it when I'm gone. I own many Bibles, many brands and if you want something that's going to last a lifetime this is the only choice. I like the Thompson chain reference because it doesn't give me a lot of notes from some other person it allows me to let scripture interpret Scripture. There are however good study aids in the back like the histories, archaeological supplements and overviews of each book. It may not get you into heaven but you'll still be carrying it when it's time to go.

Quality is ok I guess. True leather one from mid 70s was much better. This leather not much more thick than bonded leather bibles I have. If purchaser is interested, should check further into how the chain reference actually works. I am glad to add to my study bibles but think the price too high for quality. Then it has been over 20 yrs since any bible purchase. I have quite a collection for one person. Prefer the NASB for accuracy. For those who think KJV & NKJV are the best, just read that it is only 98.3% accurate. In bible study in the 70s, proved NASB to be most accurate put against any at the time. People are misinformed that KJV is original. Love to have multiple for comparison. I love the tabs & comes in handy with all the info in the back. Remember the days when you opened the Bible to middle to find Psalms?

What a great Bible. Thompson Chain Reference is such a valuable resource, and the quality of bible is great. Capri grain leather and Smyth Sewn binding, couldn't ask for much more.

I love the content of this Bible. I had one before that fell apart though. I loved the Bible so much that I took a chance on buying a new one. It seems to be made better and somehow it is a little thinner. It has definitely been improved in my opinion. The chains links are the best. You can pick a subject and trace it all the way through the bible. If you want more, they give you related chains. I also love that it is not filled with opinionated commentary. Great Bible.

Nicely bound, beautiful Bible!

Didn't realize the NASB had been updated a few years ago, so this one is a little different from the versions I have had in the past. A little disappointing. I don't remember if the description revealed that information.

This is a fine Bible. Nicely constructed of quality materials and cetainly a companion for life. It is one of three translations I purchased recently and all have been very impressive.
