This is a nicely done, EASY TO READ, edition of the RSV-CE. The only problems are the weight, which is prodigious, and the micro-thin pages which are a bit hard to turn when new. Other than that - THUMBS UP!

I truly believe that a reason some people do not stay (or 'stick') with regular Bible reading and/or study is that the difficulty in reading the Holy Word is not the difficulty of the text but the DIFFICULTY of reading the text. In most bought(and especially given) Bibles is the closeness of the text in conjunction with the size of the text will dampen the spirit of any one. Usually it is out with the reading glasses and on with headache . Here is the chance for anyone who can relate to this, to have a truly wonderful experience of that when you first open your new LARGE PRINT Bible and begin to read, it worth the wait for it is a very 'hands on' experience of 'clearly' seeing the Word of God in the comfort of your home.
