I have used this as my only Bible since 2006. It is NOT hard to read, it just requires a short adjustment period. Then it is easier to read that any of the counterfeit new versions. After I became intimate with it, I was attending a church where the SS teachers read from the NIV, NAS and the NKJV. As I followed along in the Bible, I noticed that those "crazy KJ only" people have been right all along. The new versions all agree with each other, but they are all doctrinally incorrect in places that are so obvious that you can hear a snake slither. For example, the Bible says that if you have faith as a mustard seed, you can do great things. All of the new counterfeits (NIV, NAS, NKJV) say that if you have faith the SIZE of a mustard seed you can do great things. This is the opposite! The Bible says "reject a heretic", the counterfeits all say "reject a divisive man". This is the opposite! A divisive man will stand against heresy in a liberal church. There are hundreds of examples like this that prove that the new versions are deliberately perverted. I did some further study to find out why and I learned that new versions are translated from deliberately perverted counterfeit "original" documents. ALL study books, text books, margin notes in study "bibles" and bible college textbooks are based on the deliberately perverted manuscripts. So, a "scholarly study" will "prove" that the bible is wrong and Satan's counterfeits are better, but none is perfect. This is the problem with the church today. "Scholars" are taught that the Bible is full of mistakes that can only be corrected by books for sale in the college bookstore. "Study Bibles" have margin notes that contradict the text, enforcing this idea that the Bible is not perfect. The KJB is the only English translation of the real Bible. Don't display it, READ it and live it. Praise God for it!Read full review
* I spent a lot of time (more than a year) trying to trace the genealogies from the book of Genesis on (in a notebook) and couldn't do it. * This 1611 replica of the King James Version contains the Genealogies (created by John Speed, known as a famous map maker)from Adam and Eve to the birth of Christ. Although it must have taken many years to complete, someone purchased the rights to "Speed's Genealogies" and then they were discontinued around 1640, the first year the apocrypha (some additional books of the bible) was taken out of the Geneva translation and later the King James Translation. The beautiful 34 pages of Genealogies appear in this replica but the apocrypha does not. This replica is also in the original Goth font allowing the reader to take a look at history . . .what people were looking at from 1611 through 1640 when the font was also changed to the "easier to read" Roman font. * The price is EXCELLENT for this work of art, and I believe it will appreciate in value because the Genealogies are so hard to find. I have seen replicas sell for up to $1,000 without the Genealogies (some with and some without the apocrypha). Mr. Speed is best known as a famous map maker; and you have to see his work -- the genealogy tree -- to apprecieate its beauty as well as utility.Read full review
