The Hebrew-Greek Key Word Study Bible: KJV Edition, Black Genuine Leather Thumb-Indexed (Key Word Study Bibles)

The Keyword Study bible is made to sit down and tear into the small nuances of the Word of God... bringing serious understanding to the bible! This bible is an excellent tool that will become an invaluable study weapon!Here's what sets this book apart (its selling point). Instead of carrying around a large Strongs Concordance and a bible, a concise strongs concordance is built right into the back of the book and nearly every word in the biblical text is keyed with its Strongs number for easy referencing! What, dont think thats a great feature? Look up Matthew 3:2 and Matthew 27:3 and you'll find the word Repent. However there are two different versions/meanings of the word Repent but how would you know that! Under careful observation you'd know this if you had a Strongs Concordance to show you the different numbers which indicate the different meaning! This tool is built into this bible! This is a must buy! This book has everything one needs for real bible study, cross references, concise study notes and a concordance (a rather weak one... but theres something there).Now, lets talk the presentation:Genuine Leather - the only edition I would suggest you buy. The hardback might be a glued spine and is sure to fall apart within a years worth of heavy use. Gold gilded edges look beautiful. Leather grain is outstanding not too hard but not too soft.Font is a 9pt - standard among study bibles.Red Lettering for the words of Christ - good deep red.One Black ribbon - for this student oriented study bible their should be 3 ribbons at least but you do have one.Paper - thin. Not so thin that I can see the text through the page like my beloved Macarthur Study Bible ( which is shambley thin) but to thin to be a study tool where I'd write notes in it. If I write notes into this bible I'd keep a piece of plastic between the pages so the impression wont dig several pages deep (disrespectful for something called a study bible but hey they probably used paper this thin to keep cost down).Overall: Every pastor should have one! Everyone that does not have an Exhaustive Strong's Concordance should have this. The quality is rock solid! Definitely a good buy for anyone who honestly wants to know what the bible says. The low amount of study notes are also an excellent feature (yes it defeats the premise of the study bible - but it causes one to study the bible for themselves!). The price is excellent I caught mines for $39.95 and the following week after I bought it I went to get another for my wife and the price had risen to $45.95. I'd say with that in mind... get one while you can now - before everyone else catches on to a good bible!p.s. The ESV translation is stellar! For example it used the definition of the word repent instead of "Repent" (the great KJV uses the word "repent" however without a strongs concordance you would not know precisely what the meaning of the word was see Matthew 3:2 and Matthew 27:3). What does this do? It defines directly it into the text itself. The whole phrase would be underlined and actually keyed to the word Repent as this is the word was originally used! Excellent! BUY ONE NOW!UPDATE: I saw my pastors old copy of the KJV version of the Keyword Study bible. I see several upgrades and one downgrades.Upgrades: 1.) The newer version is significantly wider (due to the wider margins to write into the bible).2.) The leather on the newer version is much better and softer. The newer version leather grain is a lot smoother.Downgrades: 1.) The older versions font is markedly darker. 2.) The Older versions font was definitely larger.

I used to do a lot of study using Strong's numbers with bible apps on my windows based cellphones. My favorite programs are no longer being updated, and the new ones are sluggish on my Android phone. I don't really even like reading on a screen so it finally occurred to me there might be an in print option. This Bible is that in print option. All in one place in a nice study bible, I can drink tea with and read hands free. The overall quality of the cover is reasonable at this price, I suppose. To the plus side the leather is flexible and the Bible lays flat. The quality of the leather is not terrific and the same overall feel would be better had they used one of the new faux leather options available today, and I think the faux leather would last longer. The overall quality of the book block is reasonable. The text is of a higher quality print job than I was expecting. Black ink is a deep black with a sharp contrast to the bright white paper. The red lettering in the NT is a nice deep red leaning a bit toward the brown side, a nice change from other Bibles where the red text leans toward the pink side not giving a good contrast with the page. The main font of the Bible text is a bit thin ( not quite as bold as I like) but in bright reading light gives ample contrast. The boldness of the notes is about right, but that font would not suit the main scripture text well. The more classic style of font used for Scripture gives a nice degree of differentiation to the characters unlike many modern fonts that have little. The paper is nice and bright white. All of the fonts contrast well with it, even the smaller text in the resources in the back. Despite the paper being thin, as it must be in a study bible with so much extra material, the show through is less than expected, that fact combined with a better than expected printing job makes this Bible a good value overall. On some pages the paper is a bit ripply in feel and texture like that found in a phone book or inexpensive dictionary. The gold Gilt is of reasonable quality. The pages actually seem to be pretty well line matched, a surprise in this price point.Because of the lesser quality of leather in the cover and the phonebook like paper, I would have given 4.5 stars if I could. In terms of getting a Strong's indexed bible with a partial Concordance/Dictionary in it, I got what I ordered. Given the overall price point to quality measure, I not going to round down so 5 stars it is.

I got this to better learn the meanings of words in the Bible based on their original Hebrew or Greek language counterparts. I really like that in one text now, I have the Bible, a concordance, and both a Hebrew and Greek key word dictionary. I also like the commentary provided at the start of each book, as well as amplifying footnotes throughout.Tthe pages are a little thin--I wish they were more substantial. I tore one just trying to reposition one of a set of Bible tabs I'd bought. I guess they keep the pages thin for cost as well as size/weight, as there is a lot of content in this one volume.Overall, I really like this Bible though, and I'm looking forward to being able to learn more and better understand what I'm reading, without having to learn Hebrew or Greek!

One of the best Bible study tools you can get. It absolutely transformed my Bible study and made the Holy Word of God much much clearer and easier to understand!!!

Such a beautiful Bible, great quality. Excellent study material! I fully recommend it!

some pages are very good, but some other pages are so bad quality, and there is also issues with the sewing, and also the commentary is not so good, the dictionary does not explain every word that need to be explained, like isaiah 14:12, wich the kjv uses Lucifer wich is not found in the hebrew text, there is no explanation that Lucifer is not Satan, too much hidden truth in this Bible, definitely it is not a full study Bible with dictionary, the smell is so good and the leather is good also, but paper quality is terrible.but some pages look very nice.

Excellent Bible. This is really good for both just reading the Bible and also for doing any Bible study. The extras are very helpful in researching deeper meanings of some of the words.

I like very much this Bible, it has many study helps although is some heavy you can put in your backpack
