C A5 Stars Out Of 5Comparing ESV Large Print BiblesFebruary 10, 2022C AQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5This review was written for ESV Large Print Bible, Imitation Leather, Black - Slightly Imperfect.I bought 5 different LARGE PRINT ESV Bibles (not study Bibles, all with imitation leather covers) for my family and to compare things that I couldn't easily tell from descriptions online. I'm comparing:
(1) Value Thinline (navy with mosaic cross) "Large Print Value Thinline Bible"
(2) Thinline (olive cross) "Large Print Thinline Bible"
(3) Thinline Reference (one olive, one purple) "Large Print Thinline Reference Bible"
(4) Full size tan ornament (not thinline, a thicker Bible) "Large Print Bible" (like this listing but different cover and not "imperfect")
They all have a CONCORDANCE, but the Thinline Reference (3) and the full size (4) have a longer concordance (60 pages) than the others (43 pages).
The BINDING seems identical on all (but see note at bottom). Same FONT in all; font size is 11 point in the full size (4), 10.5 point in the Reference (3), and 10 point in the others (1) and (2).
The Value (1) has no MAPS, the Thinline (2) has maps on dull paper, and (3) and (4) have glossy, nice maps (all the same maps).
The Thinline Reference (3) not only has the many REFERENCES noted within the verses (which the other Bibles don't have), but also has more NOTES AT THE BOTTOM of the pages (one or more per page) than the other Bibles, which had very few (most pages have no notes).
The VALUE THINLINE (1) and THINLINE (2) have identical pages. The words and page numbers match up throughout the book. The pages appear the same texture and thickness (can see through to back of pages similarly). The covers appear to be similar quality. The only difference between the two (other than the Value has no maps) is that the Value has white page edges and no ribbon marker, while the Thinline (2) has gold page edges and a ribbon marker. (See note at bottom about page quality)
The Thinline Reference (3) and the full size (4) Bible are EASIER TO READ than (1) or (2) because there is not as much "bleed through" where you can see the words on the back of the page (but you still can, just not as much). The Reference (3) also has wider pages than (1) or (2) and the words are a slightly larger font (10.5). The full size (4) is even nicer with the again slightly larger font (11). The covers of Bibles (1) and (2) measure almost 5-3/4" wide and 8-3/4" high and just over 1" thick. The Reference (3) measures about 6-1/2" x 9-1/2" x 1", and the full size (4) measures about 6-3/4" x 9-5/8" x 1-1/4".
Other differences:
Of the two Thinline REFERENCE Bibles (3) I got, the purple one has white page edges and the olive one has gold page edges (otherwise they seem the same quality). The purple one has an imprinted (indented) design, and the olive one has a gold branch design that is flush with the smooth cover. The page numbers and words of these 2 Bibles match up identically.
The Reference (3) and full size (4) Bibles both have pages to record marriages, births/adoptions, and deaths, which Bibles (1) and (2) do not have.
Both the Value Thinline (1) and Thinline (2) Bibles have a lesser quality feel on the inside than Bibles (3) and (4). The covers of all the mentioned Bibles feel like very nice quality. However, if all the Bibles are opened up to somewhere in the middle, and you run your finger up and down in the center where the pages meet, the Reference (3) and full size (4) Bibles are smooth. But the Value Thinline (1) and the Thinline (2) feel bumpy/crinkly and make a crinkly sound when you move your finger up or down. They are still fine Bibles, but feel a little cheaper because of this and how you can see the writing from the back side more than the others. -
