It just a Bible just that is more easy to read then the old Jerusalem bible which I do own. The new Jerusalem bible make it easily to find the text number where you are looking for where the old book the numbers are mix from the chapter to the next chapter so you don't know where is to stop following to the next chapter.

What I dislike and am disappointed by is this book is indeed "User Friendly" in the context of "Dumbed-down". The wording is altered to make it more inline with a story than the chronicles of scripture through history. I Purchased this book assuming I was getting a revised edition of the 1966 release. I did, sadly this is not a bible or a book put out there to offer any additional information not covered in the often edited, King James Bible. If you want a book of commonly known fairy tales ,this is it. If you want a direct Scripture to French to English translation,then this is not it. This is barely above child's level of comprehension it is so "User friendly". If I had wanted a simplier form of the King James bible, I would have purchased such. The info supplied by the book publisher is very inadequate and misleading.Read full review
I'm not a Bible person so I'm not qualified to judge it. In fact, the way the Bible has been used to justify condemnation of kinds of things and to preach hellfire and damnation . . . not into it. But I've been reading and listening to a priest who brings a different story out of the Bible and who likes this version. So I'm 'looking into it' ;) because I greatly respect the priest.
