$37 isn't bad. I paid the full $55 but it was still worth it. I love how this bible looks and feels. I wanted a bible with no red letters and letters big enough to easily read...and that's what I got. It's not real leather but it seems pretty durable. There are better bibles out there but this is what I was looking for. Hope this helps!
3 out of 5 stars

I wanted another copy of the ESV and so I chose this one. It was as I thought it would be and have put it to use right away. As always the service from CBD was great.
