As clichГ© as it will sound, the leather is absolutely as soft as a babyвЂ™s skin. Very few things leave me at a loss for words but I find myself having difficulty choosing the adjective to describe the softness of the leather. To my surprise, the hardcover actually lays flatter than the calfskin. I have both a burgundy calfskin and a blue hardcover. In the In Touch Bibles, ghosting is not minimal it is non-existent. In most Bibles, minimal ghosting is considered to be quite acceptable. I have had tremendous difficulty finding detailed information on the paper. It is the brightest paper of any of the Bibles I own.) It is not quite as opaque as the Quentel NASB from Schuyler Bibles though it is quite close I would guess perhaps 28 gsm or possibly 32 but that is just a guess. (IвЂ™m not certain as to what the official color name is but the paper is extremely bright white. It can be quite useful but that is probably just me nitpicking.ДЄs I previously mentioned, this is some of the most opaque paper I have ever encountered in a Bible. Both the ESV Journaling Bible and the now out of print Take Note Bible from Thomas Nelson add this feature. There is a change I would like to see in wide margin Bibles, lines. As a general rule, that is what I use the margins for, logging my train of thought as the Holy Spirit guides. The references, generally, do not follow my train of thought. There is almost always a concordance that will do the job nicely. I generally do not use the references included in a Bible for two reasons: 1. For some of my readers, this will pose a problem, especially if you are new to the Bible. Speaking of references, there arenвЂ™t really any in this Bible and that is not, of necessity, a bad thing. Despite having the same margin size, the SCRB feels slightly more cluttered, mostly because of the references also being in the margin. I believe that the Zondervan Note TakerвЂ™s Bible has wider margins but I cannot find any specific details on their margins. The margins are rated at 1вЂќ just like in the Foundation Publications Side Column Wide Margin Reference Bible (SCRB). Your Bible becomes an heirloom a record of your walk with God and nothing besides a wide margin version can offer this. (I wish I could say that I journal as often as I should but I donвЂ™t and I am trying to do better at that.) Here, in the margins, is where the good stuff happens: Notes from word studies, personal cross references, unique and personal illuminations from the Holy Spirit, thoughts from the sermons you sit through on Sunday, I could go on forever. Outside of the translation, itself, wide margins are the most important feature for me when choosing a Bible. There are subject headings provided to help you through your studies. The double column is in paragraph form each verse starts on a new, indented line.

I, personally, love it although my preference is Single Column. You will find the text to be laid out in a double column format. It is not as opaque as the Schuyler Bibles Quentel NASB but it certainly looks close to the naked eye. It is a black letter text on what is among the most opaque paper I have ever seen. The text, in both versions, is presented in what is rated at a 10-point font. If you have read any of my reviews, you know that the NASB is my translation of choice. Before we dive into the review, I need to provide the following disclosures: the Lockman Foundation at no charge provided the burgundy calfskin the hardcover was purchased for the purposes of preaching my motherвЂ™s funeral. This will be a double review as I have this Bible in both hardcover and burgundy calfskin. This is the best Bible that I have ever had in my hands.
