Review: This review is about the quality of the book and not the contents. Many reviews here have stated that this book is printed on very thin paper, that in itself is not a problem for me, most Bibles are the same, however they tend to have a stiffer cover and this book does not, it is very flimsy. The publisher should be ashamed to send out books that have not even been cut and bound correctly. It is too much effort to send it back and I did buy it for its content and not its quality. If you choose to buy this book be prepared to be disappointed with the overall quality , know what to expect.
