I am a new bible student, and I was shocked by all the different translations and styles of bible available out there. After struggling with both a King James and New King James version, I spoke to others in my church and ultimately decided upon a NIV. After browsing at length, the Rainbow Study Bible seemed like it had what I was looking for. As soon as I opened it, I knew I'd made the perfect choice! The color-code system is the ideal method for understanding what you're reading, and the enclosed color-key bookmark is so handy! I also appreciate the overview at the start of each book, which "sets the stage" for what the book contains. The bible is well-made and has the look and feel of a much more expensive bible without the added cost. I've had several people at church comment on it, and they can't believe it when I tell them the price. All in all, I think I've found the perfect bible for me!Read full review
I've used the Rainbow Study Bible for many years. Frankly I was not interested in the colors as study help but that the colors make the text pop and easier to read. My former pastor has a son with dyslexia and uses the Rainbow bible. His son saw it and started reading the text and stated how much the colors made it easier for him to read.

A police officer from our department felt that starting a bible study group with our chaplin would be a great idea. No knowing who many would attend, the first study night was set up. I was absolutely surprised about how many officers showed up the first night. On that first night we decided to use the NIV version of the bible for our study. One of the officers had a Rainbow Study Bible. I liked how easy it was to read, and to be able see exactly what catagory verses fit into. The information that is in the front of every book is also wonderful, as it help set the time period, and gives information about the author of that book, and the regional area that it covers. Overall, I think this is a great study bible.
I've had several Bibles of differing versions in my lifetime, and this is by far the best one I've ever studied. After awhile, I no longer had to look at the color codes, and could simply feel the "message behind the message." When I occasionally look at a plain white paper Bible, it seems "foreign" to me. I recently purchased this Bible as a gift for a friend who just converted from Catholicism to being a "new-born Christian" and she, too, has discovered its uniqueness. This Bible offers many features. I like the index tabs, the colored maps, the dictionary, the daily verses, the topic index...etc. I find that I spend more time studying this Bible than any other I've ever owned, and highly recommend it.
I bought this study Bible for a friend. I also purchased this Bible for myself and have had it for over 30 years. This color coded Bible is so much easier to understand. It’s beautiful! I love it and so does my friend. Easy for beginners. Buy it you won’t be disappointed!
