![]() ![]() The bible features 14 color maps in the back which are readable and useful. Here is one on God’s covenant with Israel through Moses: There are in-text informational boxes that highlight pivotal events in salvation history, and there are major informational pages on the covenants God made with his people. Here’s the information page for the Messianic Fulfillment period: There are also at-a-glance pages that provide information about each of the color-coded time periods. The color tabs show at a glance the time period of salvation history that each book of the bible corresponds to. I suspect that these are the same footnotes that appear in other editions of the RSV-2CE, but I do not have another copy to compare it to at present.Īs you can see in the previous two photos, there are colored tabs at the page edges that correspond to the colors in the Great Adventure Bible Timeline (the bible features a color diagram of this, in case you don’t have the Great Adventure study materials). Explanatory footnotes are few and far between. Note that the cross references, footnotes, and textual notes are separated by line dividers at the bottom of the page. This is also a red-letter edition, so the words of Jesus in the New Testament stand out: Since the paper is so opaque, this poses no practical problem for reading. The pages are line-matched, but the binding is not precise enough to match the lines on subsequent pages. I’m very impressed that Ascension was able to produce a bible with decent-sized font, minimal ghosting, and opaque paper in such a manageable size. It measures just a hair over 1.5 inches thick. The subtle texture of the imitation leather is visible here. It has a softness and flexibility that feels very nice to hold. This is not a plastic or rubber-feeling cover. Nicholas King’s complete translation of the Bible, for anyone who has seen that edition. It feels very nice! The material is nearly identical to the imitation leather cover on Fr. When we discussed the announcement for this edition back in July, I was curious to see what the “alpha cowhide” imitation leather cover would be like. I’m estimating the bible text is close to a size 10 font. It has surprisingly opaque pages with little ghosting the font is large and very readable.
