The elegant KJV Study Bible will introduce a new way of looking at the classic King James Version text in an updated study Bible that emphasizes personal and family devotions.
The simple yet sophisticated cover of this black faux leather Bible holds several debossed framing lines. The title is foiled in silver letters on the front cover, and the version reference is heat-debossed.
The spine is decorated with raised decorative spine ribs and holds the silver foiled title and version reference. The page edges are gilt-edged in silver to protect against dust and moisture.
The sturdy construction includes a lay-flat spine and two satin ribbon markers for marking several pages, and a thumb index for navigating the Bible. The interior pages are printed in black ink and accented with metallic gold decorative accents. The double-column formatted text is presented in a 10-point type.
The Bible also acts as a record keeper. It includes a presentation page that can be personalized, a wedding certificate, and a family record that provides for marriages, births and adoptions, and deaths. An additional record-keeping page is dedicated to occasions to remember.
An entire section is dedicated to the history of the KJV, focusing on its tradition, text, and translation.
Study features include an introduction to every book of the Bible and personal or family devotions at the end of every chapter, thousands of explanatory study notes on the text and the archaic language, essays on 50 key teachings of the Bible, a concordance, and 8 full-color maps. There is also a section dedicated to life as a Christian that covers 37 essays.
