Years ago my family had a set of cassette tapes of Alexander Scourby reading the King James Version of the Holy Bible. I was thrilled to find this set on CD so that I can listen to it using today's media. Thank you for having it available for sale. For anyone not familiar with Alexander Scourby, he is known for reading for the Library for the Blind. He has a very distinct, clear voice and pronunciation is excellent. I like to read the written Word of God and find listening to the CDs help me to better be able to pronounce names and locations that are referenced in the Bible.

in my opinion, there no one better way to absorb the KJV bible than to listen to Alexander Scourby...if you want to "read" the bible in a year or less this is a great way to do it and stay on track...it's a blessing and warning: it also can put you to sleep! :)

Although the bible is the bible and the reading accurate and complete the reader speaks with a monotone, stilted accent and (to my ear) the names and locations come across in a manner that is not at all pleasing and somewhat unnatural. Often I wonder just what he is saying. I am sorry I did not listen to something by Alexander Scourby first and will not make that error again. I will purchase a different copy as soon as I am able. First I broke the first disk and then listening was terribly disappointing

I REALLY LIKE THIS

I have not listened to all of the CD's yet but so far it's good especially since I do not have to listen to music along with the Bible reading. It was so annoying to me, all of that music in the background.
