This product is a good suppliment to the NIV for the Bible study that I am presently taking. It gives me another way of thinking about a difficult passage.

This is by far the worst translation of the bible. EXAMPLE: " As above so below". This is a New Age phrase. It has no place in God's word.
If you want God's word, buy another Translation. There are some great ones that are easy to understand.

I love this bible the reading is very modernized. Its nice to read it alongside with another bible tho. I would definitley recommend everyone who thinks the word of God at times is complicated and hard to understand. This bible puts it riught out there. I do wish I had gotten the study version thought. But it also works to read it alongside another bible..
