A**R
Must buy
I have a NIV, NKJV Bibles but i wanted the best of both of it so i bought this NASB Bible. Though not very popular but i loved it totally especially the greek cross, it gives a depth to this Bible which i wished. Its easy to carry and very handy. Though fonts are small but its easiky readable.

NASB Compact Text Edition, 2008 (back of jeans pocket sized)
Even better than my zippered NLT jean back pocket which is virtually the same size.Unsure if it's real leather or pretend vinyl leather, no matter, it is flexible and easy to handle one handed with a very slightly rough grain feel/texture that is very pleasing and oddly satisfying to handle - no slipperyness here.A superb compact that slips into the back of your jean pocket and is unadorned by any cheesy big crosses on the cover, it's entirely plain so 'stealthy'.Just has "NEW AMERICAN STANDARD BIBLE" in bold gold block serif font on the spine that is resistant to abrasion/rubbing off (I've tried scratching with my fingernail)The popper clasp is secure brass, two column text crisp and clear, gilt edging of pages, a marker ribbon, smyth-sewn binding, slightly rounded corners.Has a useful page at the back that handily lists all the parables on one side and miracles on the other, an informative, if slightly preachy foreword outlining the history of the NASB's formal equivalent translational approach, explaining the formatting convention they use, and throughout the OT and NT, occasional brief alternative renderings of words or idioms in the lower margin. Italicised text is as per standard convention with translations of anything, used to signify text not present in the original manuscripts. Well as original/earliest as we will ever get in Biblical source manuscripts of the Masoretic Hebrew, LXX Koine Greek Septuagint and Nag Hamadi Dead Sea scrolls.I also noticed that throughout there are the odd verse numbers in bold, I don't know what this signifies, maybe they're important verses, but most are not particularly famed, perhaps they are plot points, .Finally, the words of Christ are not in red, and I would've liked thumb index notches but that is me being picky, you can't have everything!Buy with confidence - it's cheap, too!

Lovely translation and a lovely feel about it
I love the soft cover. The bible is fabulous as a book and this translation is supposed to be one of the better ones. I actually love the translation very much in my first few days of reading it. The book itself is a great size. It is easy to read, very comfortable to hold, it looks super with its embossed cross on the front and my journeys through the OT and the Gospel are very pleasurable. An excellent value for money bible which is already a firm favourite in my life

Great size and quality bible. Will fit in a handbag.
I bought this as a gift for a Polish woman at my bible study. Very nice quality in my favourite translation. Nasb is considered to be the most reliable modern translation of the original Greek and Hebrew text.

Very presentable Bible with a nice cover small enough to slip into a handbag
Very presentable Bible with a nice cover small enough to slip into a handbag.The text is 9 pt and I expected the text to be larger. If you want it more than this go for an extra large print.It is easy to read because the script goes right across the page, as opposed to some bibles where there are 2 columns.I gave it to my daughter for Christmas and she was delighted.
