Cool 😊 1. I hope Lockman does a single column paragraph format (or at least a double column paragraph format) edition of their full notes NASB. Personally I'm not a huge fan of verse by verse, though I can see how it's useful for some people (e.g. preaching Bibles). 2. I hope this spurs more Bible translations to publish full notes editions of their Bibles (e.g. Crossway for the ESV).
I think the footnotes is the way to go too. Thank you for the review of one of my favorite Bible translations. To those not sure which translation to get, read Tim’s book. You will know what is best for you after reading it! 😊
They always do this to me. I just got the single column 95 prime edition as it went on sale for Christmas and they go and release the 95 LPUT my all time favorite Bible. I’ve used my genuine leather one to death and had to retire it. Something about that Bible was so special even with all the flaws. The format was just amazing. Do really like the single column and will use it a lot but I’m going to have to get one of these eventually.
Oh no! Another Bible I want. I love the NASB 2020. Just got a 9.99 well-used, but not yucky, leather Thompson Chain Reference in Niv from Half Price Books, so I've got plenty of cross-references. I'd like that personal size with the footnotes.
Thank you for review. I just wish it came in paragraph format like the 2020. I can't help but wonder if the paragraph is to help new users to adjust by having common paragraph format while historically the 1995 verse by verse was used for reading and study. At least from my background.
I prefer notes over references, too, if it's either/or. Personally, though, I also prefer the 95 over the 2020. If they put out a full notes 95, I'll pull the trigger on a hardcover, for sure. I do have a minor gripe about Bibles in every translation that is a pet peeve with me: PLEASE separate the notes and refs! The only publisher that does this regularly, I believe, is Holman with their CSB's; either L/R or up/down in the footer, a nice line separates the notes from the refs. Aaahh! A typical example of the problem is the otherwise wonderful NKJV Maclaren blue letter. The footer clutter Bothers my son, Jim, so much he only uses his Mac as his reader, anymore. His preacher is the premium NKJV EOV VBV in brown goatskin, notes isolated in the footer. It was his choice for our Shannon Clan Biblequest 2024 and he loves it! It was the most fun I've ever had going broke spending money, haha, and I highly recommend it. Pardon my verbosity and God bless you.
I love your Bible videos. If I can please ask for help in finding the Bible that's right for me. I'm looking for a 2020 NASB or Legacy standard study bible, thumb indexed, red letters, in leather. I have been looking for about 4-5 weeks, called about 5 publishers and no luck. If anyone has an information on this I would be very grateful for any direction. God Bless you brothers and sisters in Christ. Ramiro Flores
Do you know if the new 95 LPUT non-premium versions have the same paper as the premium? I know the 2020 LPUT premium was nice but the non-premiums had the paper with the bluish tint. Thanks for the great video.
For the new 95 LPUT the black and the brown Leather text, the brown genuine leather, and the black and brown goatskin Prime Editions - all have the 32gsm paper. The black genuine leather does not.
Regarding the NASB ecosystem of translations... 😊 1. NASB20 to me seems like a very readable version of the NASB. No longer wooden or stilted. Rather the NASB20 is surprisingly clear and natural sounding to my ears. 2. NASB95 remains rock solid. I think it's slightly better than the NASB20 for "literal" accuracy by which I mean formal equivalence. 3. Although I think the LSB might be (as some have said) the NASB95 "perfected". Well, "perfected" is likely an exaggeration, but at least the NASB95 "improved". If nothing else, I like the name change from NASB to LSB because NASB makes it sound like it's a Bible translation primarily for Americans (imagine if there was a translation called the New Australian Standard Bible or the British Commonwealth Bible), whereas the name LSB has a wider appeal across the English speaking world, I think.
For what it's worth, R. Grant Jones has an excellent deep dive into the NASB 2020 and LSB translations. LSB comes out the most literal (moreso than even the 77), but the NASB20 is more literal than the 95 NASB. I think Frisch comes to a similar conclusion that NASB20 is more literal than 95.
@NMicke-vz9qo Thanks, brother! 😊 Very helpful, I'll check out the Jones video as soon as I can! Really good to know he assesses the NASB 2020 to be even more literal than the NASB95. If so, that would be very good, because then we'd finally have a very literal as well as very readable NASB.
Why are you peddling new bibles? I really would like to know. There is only one true bible the KJB. All these new renditions are simply money making schemes. Do you get a kick back from promoting them,please?
Cool 😊

The olive green looks great to read. The ultra thin 95 has my attention though 😊
95 all the way, Bro! Still using my coffee stained Zodhiates Hebrew/Greek Key Study Bible 30 years on.
In Christ
Tim, love the picture with the bullets in the video. Very nice touch.
95 will always be my favorite translation of the Nasb
Same
@@tabbylynn4130 I have the 1977 NASB, the one's with thee's and thou's.
Yeah baby yeah! Classic LPUT is a great decision. It's the Bible that keeps on giving!
Wow I love your videos. So informative and I look forward to them daily. I am loving that 2020 LPUT.
I use the NASB often and the updated footnotes are very helpful. Thank you Tim
God bless you and have a happy day.
Nasb is my favorite translation , Lput looks amazing 😍
I think the footnotes is the way to go too. Thank you for the review of one of my favorite Bible translations. To those not sure which translation to get, read Tim’s book. You will know what is best for you after reading it! 😊
I bought my daughter an NASB 95 made by Schuyler Bibles, I’ve been picking it up to enjoy when I can. Great Bible.
They always do this to me. I just got the single column 95 prime edition as it went on sale for Christmas and they go and release the 95 LPUT my all time favorite Bible. I’ve used my genuine leather one to death and had to retire it. Something about that Bible was so special even with all the flaws. The format was just amazing.

That green 2020 is a beauty for sure, but that classic ‘95 look is hard to pass up. I might need both. 😅
Great Review🎉 I have the 95 NASB Study Bible with cross references and footnotes. Plus Tony Evans NASB 2020 and MacArthur's 95 signature Edition NASB.
95 looks amazing.
I prefer the new text and also would prefer the notes instead of the references, thank you for the information 😊

Love the green cloth over board but the ‘95 LPUT would be the way to go for me.
Good review as always... Now there are more Bibles I might need to buy...
Thank you for your video. This was very helpful information.
NASB95 fan here. Thanks, as always, for sharing your thoughts on some new editions.
Thanks Tim. I've ordered the hardcover, it looks great 😄
NASB 1995 = ❤❤❤
I have the 2020 in olive green leather. I would prefer it to have full footnotes instead of a combo of cross references and few footnotes.
I have been looking for an NASB looks like I’ll be checking one of these out!
95 looks great!
I love my NASB 77 :)
I wish they offered the full footnotes in single column.
The Lockman Side Column Reference and Wide Margin Reference are single column typesettings with all of the footnotes 😊
Super Review!
Thanks!
Cool video 😊 Thank you

Our church has used the NASB for 30+ years. Is the premium NASB 95 edge lined? Not sure if I caught that.
Yes, it is!
The 95 LPUT has verse by verse where the 2020 LUT is paragraph
Tim, they should make LSB in the same format as the 2020.
I may look into the full translation notes
Hey, NASB and LSB publishers, please make an interleaved Bible. I currently have the ESV but I prefer the NASB or LSB. Please please please
I prefer notes over references, too, if it's either/or. Personally, though, I also prefer the 95 over the 2020. If they put out a full notes 95, I'll pull the trigger on a hardcover, for sure.

The NASB 95 LPut rocks! Love that bible! ❤ - the new “modernized” layout for the 2020 is not as good.
Dr. Charles Stanley: “The NASB 2020 just rocks. But the NASB ‘95 not only rocks, but also is **⚡️da bomb 💣!! ** “
Are the translators notes the same for the 1995 and the 2020? I figured that they would explain some of the changes.
Is there a premium version of the 2020 LPUT?
Does the translation notes of the new 2020 full notes give the Old Testament reference info when the OT is quoted in the NT?
I think the cross references would tell you which OT quote it is.
Are the NASB translate notes on the same order of the NET full notes additional? Thanks
The 95 LPUT is now line matched?
I think I go that wrong on the specs... the 2020 is line matched, but I don't think the 95 is.

These newer editions are printed in South Korea so I think they would have the same 32gsm paper. You could contact Lockman to confirm.
For the new 95 LPUT the black and the brown Leather text, the brown genuine leather, and the black and brown goatskin Prime Editions - all have the 32gsm paper. The black genuine leather does not.
Why are more and more bibles getting away from red letter editions?
I find the 2020 version seems too squished together,
$210 dollars 😭😭😭
I know. I'd love the 2020 LPUT in the brown goatskin. Its properly premium though 😁
The 1973 or 1977 is better than the '95 or '20.
I sure wish someone would bring one or the other or both back.
I see a few 1977 editions on Amazon, including a goatskin.
@grantkruger3689 😍
2020 changes too much. The 95 and older nasb’s are great though
