That is what Publisher and edition is your most used King Jimmy? I am blessed to have Brevier Clarendon Edition in goatskin leather by Allan's Bibles of Glasgow Scotland, the "guts" are from a classic Oxford Reference Edition (which Oxford no longer prints) but as I understand it Allan's now has limited rights on. A good size, well made, and no self-pronouncing text, and no red letter either!

My first bible was the 1917 Scofield, but the print shrank and I have trouble reading it, I recently purchased a PCE large print, and that is so easy to read without all the cross references and notes to take your mind of the flow of the text. The wisdom I received from the members of this forum has blessed me greatly with that choice.

SwordSearcher affords me all the notes I need in the study mode.

???? How did the print shrink my friend??? Did you drop it in a swimming pool? (sorry I HAD to ask.)

No, just the blessing of age.

Messing with you my friend, as I close in on 40 (I don't yet wear glasses), I am noting some print shrinking as well. You don't know HOW much I love the enlarge print feature on my Mac!

In fact, I do. I recently got a MiniMac, and I really enjoy it.

www.macsword.org my brother, if you don't already have it. And if you have the means, check out Accordance Bible software; very in-depth and powerful, just not so user-friendly.

I use a Ryrie Study Bible. I used to use a Scofield Reference Bible, but there were to many "extras" and not enought text on each page for me. And the print seems to have shrank on mine as well, must be something with those Scofields!

Why don't you like red letter editions? Just curious as some do and some don't. Thanks, Jim

Jim...in the ministry that God has me serving in, I will use ANYTHING short of beating someone on the head with my large print TCR, which, if any bigger would be a pulpit Bible, to get folks going. If I have to use a good news or message bible or Rick Warren, I don't care. My job is to furrow and plant seed...God's the Gardener. One thing I will tell the folks we minister to is that, if you don't read John and Genesis 1-11 to begin with or do anything else, at least read the red print.

If for no other reason than that, the red print works for me.

Blessings...
