I was just talking with my neighbor and had a good conversation that led to prayer. In the midst I asked if he had a Bible. He said he did, but did not read it very often, but he wanted to start. I then told him that I would purchase him one. I found out that his current Bible is a KJV and his favorite color is yellow. Oh boy! He has a surprise coming. I purchased him a yellow Humble Lamb NKJV Bible. I can't wait to gift it to him...

I really dig the complimentary contrasting colors that they're using on these Bibles, it's unreal❕ I've never seen this before how innovative and artistic... 😮🎉 ✝️👑

I bought the Lunar Yellow Bible with the fore edge gilding. It's exquisite and makes reading the Bible even more fantastic.

I just bought that, I said no more Bibles because I have an embarrassing collection, but the color and illustrations won me over.

Really like this bible; however, two things would make it better: 1) Having the references printed on the inner margin (or even at the bottom of the page) rather than the outer margin - so the bible text is pulled out of the seam. 2) Printed and bound at Royal Jongbloed or an equivalent printer/binder - wish there was a USA option😞. Thanks for a great review; it's a beautiful bible!

Love the design of this Bible. Just beautiful! ❤️

Thanks so much for this review. I’ve got the Sahara Blue in the edge-lined, fore-edge gilt. I’m sorry they didn’t send you one with the usual art gilt for comparison. The Lunar yellow bible with the black under gold art gilding looks amazing on their site. Agree with you about the beauty of the interior - so well laid out and so easy to read. Also while it is a thickish bible, I find it is easy to carry and use. I also like the maps - not so glossy as some. 😊🇦🇺

I'm not too big on premium bibles, but I do appreciate how they do a single-column and paragraph style. And illustrations (especially by Gustove Dore) always a plus. And that picture that appears on the edge really surprised me, I think I've seen pictures of that on old books, but I don't recall any modern bibles that does that, so that's pretty cool. Words of Jesus in blue has been done before, but it looks really interesting here, its fitting here.

I want this one in yellow so bad. But it's a weird value prop compared to a couple others with non china print, european paper, edge lining standard and discounted to a price point between the edge line and pasted version of humble lamb. That's where I get hung up on this one. Still, I love that it's an independent publisher and the setup is unique for sure.

As someone who has the Shepard lamb the quality doesn’t line up with the price. I purchased the gold-edge and forge art gilt. The gilt rubbed off too much on my fingers. It didn’t feel like an $220 bible. Upon sharing my concerns with customer service I got no reply. After finally reaching them they started off response by using my first name. Since it’s my first premium bible I had no idea. Recently purchased an Allen primer which was around same price. Let me tell you THAT is worth it. You can feel the difference easily. Gilding barely rubbed off on my fingers. I understand humble lamb is a family business whereas the Allen isn’t. Yet why do the cost nearly EXACTLY the same?

@timwildsmith

There’s a lot of factors that go into price… design, materials, manufacturing, licensing, shipping, marketing, and more. By the way, Allan is a family business. Not a very big operation at all. But they’ve been around for a loooonnng time.

Tim, I am looking at both the Shepherd and HIStory... I LOVE the HIStory way more, for the drop caps, all of the art, the size, but I am hesitant to order bc of the errors. I emailed them and 2nd edition will come out end of this year. I am not very patient, LOL! What would you do... go with the Shepherd or spend on the HIStory even with the errors? I ordered the Shepherd... it will be here Friday. Tempted to order the HIStory to compare and send back one I don't like as much. Are they good about returns?

I've been debating between this and the Schuyler Quentel. I love the blue letter idea and the single column format but I worry the font is to small for my aging eyes. I have a Spirit Filled Life Bible that's a struggle to read because of the font size. Do you know if the Shepherd print is bigger then the Spirit Filled Life Bible? Either way another fantastic review brother.

@sandracoombs2255

2 жыл бұрын

Hi Phillip. I’ve got the Spirit Filled Life Bible and the Humble Lamb. The Humble Lamb interior is much cleaner and easier to read. The Spirit Filled is also a study bible so it has lots of visuals on the pages and is two column design with references in the middle - at least mine is. You’ll find the Humble Lamb page very clean, uncluttered and easy to read by comparison. One other great thing - the Humble Lamb has wider line spacing. Humble Lamb have deliberately given a wider space between the lines which increases readability and clarity. I’ve got two Schuyler Bibles and the Humble Lamb is a cut above for readability- IMO. But as they’re both premium Bibles you’ll need to decide for yourself of course. I did take a photo of a page from the Spirit Filled Bible and one from the Humble Lamb but not sure how to load them. Perhaps someone can tell me. However the Humble Lamb website has interior shots as does the Schuyler site. Bottom line - the Humble Lamb is far more readable than the SFL and this is enhanced by the clarity of font and wider line spacing. I also think it is easier on the eye than the Schuyler. But this is my opinion only. They are both beautiful Bibles so you can’t really go wrong. 🇦🇺😊

So if you think about it the people over at Humble Lamb couldn't care less about Americans, Chinese citizens, especially could careless about the Uyghars, and their a bunch of commies.
