NJB Pocket Edition Bible (New Jerusalem Bible) Hardcover – 1 Mar. 1990

Bought this for my mom birthday. Its a wonderful little travelling bible. The word of god

Having read yet

I needed this Bible to check with other translations, It is very good in that it has God's name - Yahweh in the Hebrew text, so is accurate and you can confirm the message hasn't changed in other Bibles, just the phraseology, But the meaning and essence is the same. Good to have for reference.Very small though, so be aware, most of us will need glasses to read it!

Edited review as previous one contained bias.THis was bought for a new convert to the faith. I feel like most new wave christian denominations have but 66 books within, this one has 72, i believe. I had to get her the full one. I can't imagine reading a Bible without these books as they help paint a picture of biblical times. Even this bible is missing books the church doesn't count as cannon but do have spiritual value.The gift was well received. It was commented that this would fit inside her purse and I suggested a rubber band to keep it tightly shut if she does to keep pages in good order.Best translation without spending £200 too.

I think it is a very good Bible for presentation. It is well preserved with the leather cover. I was very happy to give him such a precious book on the occasion of his baptism. I am sure he will cherish the New Jerusalem Bible and read it at least once a week. I received it on time and also in good condition. thanks very much for the quick delivery.

I have bought many Bible off Amazon but today I decided to write a review for anyone who wants to buy this translation . Let me make this clear the Writing inside this Bible is very small indeed . I am blessed with good eyes but after reading two pages am struggling .The Bible itself is lovely , and you can smell the leather before you even open the package . Its well made and should last a life time if you take care of it . Its sad really because the intruduction part of the Gospels the writing is a bit larger, if only it was like this throughout the Bible .I decided to keep the Bible for two reasons am a Catholic even tho am Born Again , and I thought it will be ok to put in my Work Bag. But , before you buy Please consider the Size of the writing .

Spot on.

very convenient to use -contains essential information - impressed with the quality of the item and the service - and especially the price - the itme will be put to good use - it is not heavy and as one gets older one has to avoid heavier items to spare one's joints and muscles

Boa tradução. Ótimo preço. Bom tamanho. Gosto muito desta edição. Surpreendentemente, alguns versículos desta tradução são os mais próximos do hebraico que consegui encontrar.

This is a very attractive Bible, and in my copy there is no issue with page 1396. The font is a bit small and the pages a bit thin, but that is to be expected when ordering a "pocket sized" Bible. I like the gold edges, the explanatory comments and headings, and the overall feel of this Bible. The Apocrypha is included. This Bible is exactly what I was hoping for. Quick delivery, too. Thank you.

La Bibbia non c'entra niente. Ma i caratteri sono minuscoli. Non capisco. Eppure c'è spazio anche se è una Bibbia tascabile ma davvero hanno ridotto troppo i caratteri e non ce ne era bisogno.1 stella per i caratteri. Ovviamente restituita.

Siempre me ha gustado la Biblia de Jerusalén por su traducción y constante renovación de sus notas de estudio, y aquí tenemos un ejemplo de ello, aunque es la edición de bolsillo mejoró en sus notas y materiales auxiliares.

I liked it.But the Handwriting is small as in any pocket Bible. Hardcover, easy to use, can fit a purse.
