Quite Possibly the Finest Wide Margin Bible Available,The KJV Brevier Clarendon Bible is a vintage Authorized/King James Version reference edition, developed by Oxford University Press and now published exclusively by R. L. Allan. This Wide Margin edition is particularly prized - its substantial margins and writeable paper, with the highest levels of opacity, combined with the bold, clear type of the Brevier Clarendon typesetting, make it the ideal Bible for intensive study and notetaking.
For 2016 we have reprinted on a higher weight PrimaBible 45gsm paper with improved writeability characteristics so as to maximize the benefit of the 1.5 inch outer/inner margins (1 inch at top and bottom).
Our classic 5WM edition is bound in Black natural grain goatskin with generous yapp, leather-lined in dark blue with gilt line inside, hand-pleated corners and double-sprayed red under gold page edges, three navy blue ribbon markers, with presentation pages and family record in new improved design, blank pages at the back of the Bible book block for notes, and 16 pages of full-colour Oxford Bible maps.
Features:
- Easy to read 9.5 bold font
- Best quality, writeable, highly opaque 45gsm India Paper
- Margin Measurements: 1.5" outside, 1" top & bottom

Just received my Allan wide margin, navy blue goat skin. This Bible is great. The paper is the best I have seen, plenty of room for notes in the margins. Very readable font. The references give much information. The goat skin leather is amazing. I know this Bible is a little expensive, but well worth it. Great Bible, love it. Thanks KJV store, great review, great Bible.
Thanks for your business!
@@TheKJVStore The next KJV I buy will be from the KJV store. You Guys & Gals are great !!
Thank you for this in depth review brother its really cool seeing the references chaining like this. Many of these Oxford style bibles would make you think they all are relatively the same, but that is actually not true at all. These Clarendon bibles are amazing looking, the ink is very bold and the cover is some very thick goatskin.
You're very welcome.
You guys always have the best reviews. Btw just purchased my KJV Store Lambskin (AWSOME Bible)
Thank you SO much. Hope you are enjoying your Lambskin Bible.
What a great review. Very detailed and informative. Thanks so much!
Thanks for watching!
Just ordered mine in black goatskin. Can't wait to get it. Thanks kjv store!
Thank You!
I love my KJV Allan purple Bible I bought from KJV store. 💜
Wonderful!
I want to thank you , I just ordered the large print note takers executive Bible.
Note Taker's is excellent, a premium wide margin bible at half the cost of the Allan:

My favorite wide margin!
Excellent.
Would you get this over the Concord Wide Margin? I cant make up my mind, I like the Concord text more but I already have the little 7c version of this and it would go well with it.
Hmm, tough call. The Concord Wide Margin from Cambridge is the overall better seller for us, but that is partly due to the fact that it's stock is more steadily available. The Cambridge is more competitively priced on our site compared to the Allan Brevier Clarendon Wide Margin as well, but we can understand wanting to compliment your existing "7C" Brevier Clarendon. You really can't go wrong with either edition, 2 of the nicest available KJV Wide Margin Bibles for sure:

Hope this helps and God Bless!
I'm a new Christian.. Would you recommend this as a first Bible?
Congratulations on accepting Christ! Absolutely, this bible would be excellent for a new Christian. The cross-references in this bible would be very helpful for finding lots of related verses about a particular topic or doctrine, plus the quality of the binding is something that could last you for life. If you have any specific questions, please let us know and God Bless!
Great video, are these Allan bibles pretty much the same exact Bible as the older KJV Clarendon Oxford Wide Margins? Same exact paper thickness 45gsm? text block/font size, margin space?
We don't have a Clarendon Oxford Wide Margin to compare this to, but since Allan is essentially the only "authorized" publisher of Oxford Reference Bibles in the UK, it's very possible.
This bible seems to be clearly printed. In terms of clarity in printing, how is it compared with the Cambridge Cameo?
Any printing done by Royal Jongbloed in the Netherlands, as the Allan Brevier Clarendon Wide Margin is, will be of the highest quality. Furthermore, the size of the font in this Allan bible is also slightly larger, at a size 9 font, than the Cameo Reference by Cambridge which is an 8.5. We hope this helps. God Bless.
May I know what GSM of the papers used in all these Allan bibles?
Hello, they have the PrimaBible 45gsm paper. God Bless, The KJV Store
Those Bibles look fantastic. Is the font on those easier to read than a Cambridge? I really like the Cambridge, but I wish it was easier to read. Appreciate any comment. Good review.
Depending on the Cambridge Bible you are comparing to, yes, the Allan Brevier Clarendon may be slightly easier to read. The font size is a 9 and it is very bold on the page (as you can start seeing around the 16:22 mark at Psalm 23). As compared to the KJV Concord Wide Margin Bible from Cambridge, which is only a size 8 font. Both bibles have very "Bold" and "Dark Print", but 9 is still bigger than 8. Blessings.
Thanks for the reply. I plan to order one very soon!!
In my Cameo, the translators notes are in the margin, is this also true for this edition? I do not like the notes the Longprimer contains, saying the "best MSS" etc.
The Brevier Clarendon Wide Margin doesn't have anything in the margin at all, it only contains the references and Hebrew/Greek definitions and alternate readings in the Center-Column. I've looked quite a bit and can't seem to find any such statements about "the best manuscripts say" etc... Only examples like "4 Heb. upon the face of the waters." (at the 27:50 mark) and "3 Or, a pin: i.e. a cnostant and sure abode." (29:00 mark). Hope this helps.
Hi and thank you for good review. You’re unique in the thorough way you review. Good to have you among reviewers.
Do you know if this one use the same reference system as KJV Cambridge bibles, and also do you happen to know if these are the same as the original KJV?
Secondly, do you know if, among the Oxford based bibles, it is only the Longprimer that uses its own special reference system? Are the others (Allans) following the same system as the first KJVs?
Thanks for the compliment and questions. It does not use the same reference system as Cambridge, as Allan uses the Oxford Reference system.
By "if these are the same as the original KJV", if you're referring to the 1611 KJV, those did not have references (or not very many references, only a few in the margins). To our knowledge, all Allan KJV Reference bibles use the same references including Longprimer and Brevier Clarendon.
@@TheKJVStore aha oki, thank you for response and useful info.
It seems that Cambridge bibles from the early and mid nineteen hundreds use the same references. Turquoise, Concord etc. Do you know of this set of references just evolved over time up to that point? Or were they composed on a certain occasion?
We don't know for sure. That would be a better question for Oxford.
Please when will these be coming back in stock?
R.L. Allan is saying Summer of 2022:

I would love to see a review of the 52 meriva calfskin and how it compares to the 53 Highland Goat. This bible has a different reference column than the longprimers. Which do you prefer?
Unfortunately that's not correct. The "52" and the "53" are BOTH Longprimers. And they both have the exact same printed contents and center-reference column. The only difference is the binding in Meriva Calfskin vs. Highland Goatskin. We will consider a review in the future, but again, the printed contents are 100% the same across ALL Longprimer Bibles from R.L. Allan, which both the 52 and 53 are. Blessings.
But this Claredon bible has a different reference column. Do you prefer the references from the Claredon or the Longprimer
You asked about the 52 Meriva Calfskin and 53 Highland Goatskin. Those are both Longprimer bibles. We do not have a video on the Allan Brevier Clarendon Reference Bible. We do not have a Brevier Clarendon here to check, but the Brevier Blackface edition, still has reference on Micah 5:2 regarding Bethlehem. It uses an "i" instead of a "b" but then still lists Jeremiah 41:17 and Matthew 2:1 as the cross-references... That leads us to believe that since all Allan KJV Bibles once again use "Oxford" References from the 1950's, that the cross-reference systems across all Allan KJV Bibles will be very similar. We hope this helps.
How thick are these in comparison to the Cambridge WM?
The Allan Brevier is 2 inches thick:

The Concord Wide Margin from Cambridge is also 2 inches thick:
www.thekjvstore.com/kjv-bibles/wide-margin/kjv-concord-widemargin-bible.html
I don’t like taking notes in the margins, so… is it weird that I kinda want one just because the extra margin space makes the text block look nicer?
Not to mention the super nice quality, very opaque paper…. Really want the regular Brevier Clarendon, slightly smaller, nice looking… but that paper is oh so thin… I’d almost like this wide version with its thick paper, but if it has slightly smaller margins and slightly bigger text. Yep, then it would be perfect. 😄
Sounds good.
@@TheKJVStore 🙂
Did they fix the horrible printing issues in the past 2.5 years?
Hello Jeff,
Here is what RL Allan says about the printing. "The original type face was printed in the 1920's. What we are dealing with is a scan from a printed version. There is nothing we can do in this file to make it better. If someone had an original printing we could scan and start over, but then it still would not look like the original. Our scan was made from the negatives used to print this Bible in the early 90's, as negatives are a thing of the past."
I hope this helps.
So is the black Goatskin discontinued?
The Highland Goatskin Allan Longprimers (53's) have not been "discontinued" but they have been unavailable from Allan for over 2 years now:
www.thekjvstore.com/kjv-bibles/premium-leather/rl-allan/longprimer-meriva-calfskins.html
The current Estimated due date is Summer 2020. Blessings.
I wish you would not explain every verse reference. I would like to know about if it has maps, notes, concordance. Etc.
Thanks for your feedback. We show the back features of the bible at the 35:11 mark which include a section for notes and bible maps: ua-cam.com/video/MsaIL9sTSgE/v-deo.htmlm11s
These bibles do not contain study notes or a concordance. The primary feature is the Wide Margins for note taking and the extensive Cross-Reference system, hence our focus on how the cross-references work for those who are less familiar. Thanks.
