ESV Outreach New Testament, Large Print

My rating obviously isn't about the Bible itself. That is flawless. It's about the print. It says "large print" which is what I needed as my eyesight is failing. This was just a little bit better than my normal Bible. Better than regular print but it didn't work for me. I'll still be on the lookout for an ESV new testament with giant print as those are really great for older eyes.

I am Secular Catholic Agnostic, but was encouraged by a close friend of my family to try reading 'the good book'! This version is really easy to read, so it's easy to dip in and out of it when it suits. The price of this item was surprisingly low! It also arrived on time in mint condition. No complaints! Thanks!

Prodotto cone da descrizione, ordinato per Collegio di studi bilbici. Spedizione decisamente lenta per gli standard Amazon (un mese e più) ma era specificato nell'ordine, quindi pazienza

Good for value but font is not very big

Without getting into translation arguments (and the ESV is a fine one, as are others), the very inexpensive printing has a perhaps unintended feature namely that when one turns to any page, both sides lay flat. That makes it easy for reading and highlighting (with pencils--a yellow highlighter would bleed through the thin paper). The font is bigger than typical, hence they call it "large print" but it is not super large. Overall it's large enough even for weaker eyes and yet small enough that it keeps the NT book a handy size. It has two different reading guides, verse-by-verse by day and topical. This feature, its low cost and readability, makes it suitable for giving out to people who may not be Bible readers, or Believers. I wish I knew to prescribe this printing format for self-publishing one's own books. Crossway, the publisher does not provide such information...and should.

The best book around! Cant give this to anyone with sight difficulties though. It is advertised as large print, but the letter size is the standard size you’d find in any ol’ book. Please increase the letter size.
