To get this started I would like to share with you some photos of this new ESV Hardcover edition.
(This seems like the only proper thing to due in light of the pattern set by a couple other bloggers:Click on this collage to view each picture individually.

From ESV Study Bible |
I realized before I went to bed that I should have included the ESV Children's Bible (hardcover). I purchased one for each of my children earlier this year. They truly enjoy reading it.
Jason,
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had fun last night! I should have thought to get my camera before tearing into the box. Looking to forward to blogging about some of the rich features of the ESVSB!
Yes, I had a great time! I have also spent a little bit of time reading the front matter and a bit in the Psalms.
ReplyDeleteBecause of the multiple colors used throughout, some pages have a very slight blur. Have you noticed this? It isn't bad, but noticeable.
I haven't really noticed a blur yet, but at my age most everything looks that way to me! So I guess I'm used to it. :-) Some of the pages seem to have slightly darker print than others. Not a problem, though, just barely noticeable. And I've seen the same thing in some other Bibles, too.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of the general look of the pages, I appreciate the crisp fonts used. That helps me to make out even the smaller font size in the footnotes. BTW, I am overdue for a visit to the eye doctor. Maybe after the new year.
