Your reviews are by far the best.
Thank you!!
Greetings my brother. Thanks again for another professional Bible review. I have had both Cambridge and Allan. I have kept the Allan because of the yap. More protection from water damage or coffee spills. I don't worry too much about the gilding, but I am somewhat meticulous with my Bibles. I do not keep them in boxes, but I use them. Wide margins are especially designed for writing in them.
When we get out of this financial hole that we are in, I am going to start sending out many of these Bibles. We need help, but I ask for your prayers. Thanks again for your excellent reviews.
Thanks! We will keep you in prayer.
One advantage of the Brevier Clarendon over the Concord (if you will write in the Bible you pick) is that it contains less words per page than the Concord. They roughly have the same margin space available, but with less words per page (i.e. less verses per page) the Allan allows you to take more notes per verse on average.
Good point! Thanks!
Always awesome reviews from Randy!
Thank you!! I appreciate it!

No problem!
Great comparison! You should compare the Canterbury Wide Margin with these two when that comes out.
Thanks! I will be comparing them.
Your comparison videos are very useful for deciding between one or the other. Thank you.
Cambridge looks bigger than a Allen the font. Love you Cambridge Dictionary beautiful in the RED letter ferocious very well done
While I would like the heavier paper in the newer edition and as far as viewing on my phone goes the print looks more bold on the Allan, I will most likely be going with the Cambridge because I already have a regular sized Concord.
Thank you for the review.
Does this Allan include the translators notes? My Cameo has the translators alternate renderings in the margins which I find insightful. Does this Allan follow the Longprimer 52, by putting the RSV renderings and "the best manuscript" comments in the margin? I really dislike that about the Longprimer 52.
The Concord - NOT the personal size - says 8/9 typeset, in other words 8 point type, not 9. The leading is 9, but the type is 8 pt, but bc of the spacing, can read as a 9. Am I interpreting "typeset 8/9" correctly???
Hi Randy, great Review, love it...which one is easier to read? Cause my eyes are starting to strain when i read 8 point fonts, thanks
Thanks Jesus! I find the Concord easier to read because it doesn't have cross-reference and footnote keys in the text. However, both are small and I don't think either of them would be ideal for eyes that strain to read small print.
The Canterbury would be a better choice because of the larger print.
Another good option would be the Hendrickson Large Print Wide Margin. It has amazing paper, but the cover is low quality (imitation or hardcover). You can get it for around $15.
Being somewhat of a bible geek I'll get the Cambridge first, then save up again for the Allan cause i already have the Schuyler wide margin ':) ... But for best reading i never thought of the Hendrickson for less than 10% of the price of the Cambridge!!! That's why your the best Randy :)
@@bls6666661 thank you!!
45gsm, actually.
Thanks!
If you had to pick one of these for reading what would you choose?
I prefer the Concord. It has a cleaner text since it doesn't include callers to the references and footnotes. It also has more space within the text.
There both beautiful Bibles!
I HAVE the CONCORD wide margin in calfsplit. It is nice. I would never buy an Allan.
why if you don't mind me asking?
got the RL allan recently.. excellent quality, but words are too small for my eyes. I'm sure the concord will be the same.
Yes, the Concord and Brevier Clarendon wide margin text is the same size.
What type of paper are the maps? Card stock style or is it the same paper as the rest of the Bible?
It's card stock style.
I bot the CONCORD wide margin BECAUSE it was available in calf split. I would NOT have bot it in Goatskin
Too floppy for this size of bible.
