I agree about the references. Since i started reading a thinline kjv its changed my bible reading. Really helps me focus on reading the word . Great thanks
I'm a huge fan of taking out with me whatever Bible I'm using at the time for my daily driver. But personally I love the weight size quality of the Schuyler (PSQ) 😍 great video brother
I'd add my ESV Pitt Minion. That thing goes with me everywhere. Font is kinda small...but I love my Pitt. I've also been carrying the CSB Personal Size with Flap. (I love that flap). Number 3 would be a toss up between the Cambridge Clarion and the ESV Thinline. (two way different price points i know...lol)
I recently bought an Alan Brevier Clarendon 7C, and it has basically become my go-to bible for everything... the cyclopedic concordance in the back has awesome info/charts when I feel like digging in, and its size makes it super portable. I had been using an ESV Pitt Minion for a while, but I found that if I read it for any length of time my eyes would hurt, so I decided it was time for a change. The Brevier Clarendon 7C has a bold 9pt(I believe) font and is super readable. The only thing I was worried about was that it only came in the KJV... in the beginning it was a bit difficult, but as time has gone on, I'm really enjoying the classical language. It is also a cool feeling knowing that this same exact translation that guys like Jonathan Edwards and Charles Spurgeon read and preached from. Thanks for posting the video!
My top carry bible is the ESV Clarion Reference Edition, Premium Bible, Black Goatskin Leather Edge Lined. Beautiful to hold and use; two ribbons, extensive cross-references. Good sized font - I can read it easily without glasses. Thanks for the great video.
I'm always happy to see that you have reviewed a bible I might be looking for. You are one of the best bible reviewers I have seen , and I have seen many.
I recently bought that new handcrafted Single Column CSB, such a beautiful reading Bible from Holman! Terrible EDC though haha. I’m really excited to get my Schuyler CSB Quintel delivered after they release next month too! 😁 Truth is though, regardless for the quality of the Bible, I’m with you that getting what’s written inside spoken aloud is what matters 😁🙌🏼 I absolutely love the CSB! 👏🏼
As with you, these particular Bibles are not my go to EDC, but they each represent a layout and footprint that to me are excellent for carry. They are a perfect size to to font ratio. My Nelson SCR is a sweet spot for me. I would go up a little in footprint on a large print thinline/ultrathin for an EDC too. Great video as usual!
The Concord is my favorite carry Bible. Mine is pretty old; I think it is the first high quality binding Bible I bought. There is, from Cambridge a wide margin version that's a very good study bible and the text block looks to be identical, there are just very wide margins for notes. So it's easy to get back and forth between the two.
Good video, Tim. I think you make some good recommendations there. I'd probably add the Cambridge Cameo for those who enjoy the KJV. It's small and very readable.
3 great bibles man when i was getting my high end KJV i got the 53. But I kinda regret it sometimes when you show the concord because i got it when the full yap calfskin was just coming out
I carry my study bible with me , also my devotional bible . I’m not into plain bible with no notes for study and meditation and devotional. I need as much as gods word as possible.
As a pastor I have a brown ESV Clarion for use in the office, a cheap ESV thinline that I keep in my visitation bag, and a brown Pitt that I keep in my carry bag for work outside of the office. I tried carrying the Clarion, but it’s too chunky.
As a KJV guy, for me it's 1) The Concord, 2) Brevier Clarendon, and 3) the CBP handsized range. Honorable mention goes to the Cambridge Large Print Bible.
For an expensive EDC Bible my vote is Schuyler Treveris ESV all the way! It’s the Goldilocks size at 8.5” x 5.5” and it’s got a full yapp. Wonderful goatskin cover and paper to feel and it’s just perfect to read from one handed 😁
I have the Treveris in KJV (firebrick red w/ blue under silver) and it has been my favourite ever since I got it well over a year ago. It's slim, it's lightweight and it feels wonderful in the hand, and the text is great. I think that if one has several reference bibles, as I do, a dedicated reader fits the bill. I would that more bible makers go for this size!
@@artistchristos Totally, the first time I held my Treveris I was like “why aren’t all Bibles this!” 😂 I ordered the CSB Quintel in that same color combo, I’m excited for that one to ship out next month. Those Treveris are amazing though! I might have to grab one of those KJV too but I like my Humble Lamb KJV Lion a lot and haven’t used it much yet, so maybe later haha 😁👍🏼
@@narrowistheway77 I read KJV and NKJV and wanted the Treveris in NKJV...so got the Schuyler Quentel but it's pretty large. I am so glad I bought myslef the Cambridge Topaz NKJV because it is verysimilar to the Treveris and a beautiful bible, being considerably lighter than the Quentel but with much better opaque paper... lighter than the Quentel. Topaz is the NKJV Treveris! Someone in here said he was "chin deep in bibles," and I smiled...yep.
@@narrowistheway77 Here'smy proof! My video on these bibles and looking for a Treveris sort of NKJV: Review of NKJV Cambridge Topaz & Schuyler Quentel Bibles ua-cam.com/video/88t4YL_VAsI/v-deo.html
@@artistchristos have you tried the newer Humble Lambs yet? They’re a lot nicer than when they first started up. I got my new KJV Lion already from them and it’s absolutely gorgeous, but I’m still waiting on my two new NKJV Shepherd pre-orders that are supposed to ship next month. I got the Yellow and Purple on the NKJV, couldn’t help myself with those beautiful colors on offer haha 😆 I’d recommend snagging one of their nicer NKJV’s before they sell out if that’s your favorite edition too. Btw, I really love the Textus Receptus tradition too, but I’ve found you actually will learn a ton if you read the translations in multiple editions to see what different teams of translators chose for their rendering of each verse. I’ve heard many times that there’s “6,000 changes” to the critical text by several KJV Only people, but I would humbly invite you to verify that for yourself because you’re gonna find out they’re almost all just different translations of the same exact verse rendered differently but all in all meaning the same exact thing. There are indeed some actual changes too, I’m not denying those, and I’ve never done an official count on them, but on the legitimate “changes” what we are really talking about is things that later Greek copies of the texts in the 600’s and 700’s and 800’s and 900’s added to the text itself. Because those verses aren’t in the texts from the 200’s until the 600’s texts. So these are actually removals from the text based on added texts in the later documents. So, am I saying throw the NKJV and KJV tradition away? Actually no, those are two of my favorite editions of the Bible. In fact I almost can’t in my heart not end the Lord’s Prayer with “For thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory, for ever, amen” even though this is a clear addition to the text that happened later. In my heart I feel actually all the additions I’ve noted in the textus receptus tradition texts like the KJV and NKJV are Holy Spirit inspired. I can’t prove that and I’m not stalking my overall theology on that statement, but it’s what I feel upon reading what they actually say. Now the other reason I recommend newer editions to read too is what is called “Holy Ghost Greek”. Very few KJV/NKJV people know this but there’s over 500 words in the KJV translation that were pure guesses by the translation committees. This practice of guessing the word meanings was called “Holy Ghost Greek”. The reason they didn’t know these words was because they were translating using Ancient Greek and did not understand that the New Testament was written in Koine. This was true for all reformation age Bibles so it’s not just a KJV situation. Today we have only about 50 words left in Holy Ghost Greek in the editions like the ESV2016 and CSB 2020 and NASB1995 etcetera. Food for thought my sibling in Christ 😉 Anyways, I think you might be shocked at the helpfulness of a CSB, NLT, NASB, and ESV in your collection just to read some of the verses back to back. You’ll find yourself having a deeper understanding of the common texts which is really 99.99% of the text they all share. So you might actually love yourself one of those ESV Treveris too! 😉 On a side note I also own an NLT Caxton from Schuyler and it’s ever so slightly smaller by about 1/4” width and height than the Treveris except 1/4” thicker because it’s a single column with references edition. Another great single hand holding Bible from Schuyler! 🙌🏼 GOD Bless 😁🙏🏼
I love the ESV Personal Reference Bible by Crossway. It's hand size so it's very portable. It has a very readable 8pt font. My favorite feature is that it is single column. That's the main reason I purchased it. I find single column great for reading because it's formatted like a novel. If I'm doing study then I'm great with double column but I love single column for reading.
I'm glad to see the CSB single-column personal size getting love from someone else. :-) I was using a CSB LPUT in goatskin but it just didn't fit in the hand as well as I wanted. Then along came the single column personal size as a gift from Holman. I absolutely LOVE that Bible! It's my everyday carry, preaching, everything Bible.
ESV Clarion is hands down the best choice for me. I love this footprint. Thickness does not register as an issue for me because I dislike super, super thin paper. I have a thinline NASB which I rarely used due to ghosting. It was a real distraction.
Great video my brother! I have to choose between 3 or 4 Bibles to carry. I don’t know why I should tote one around like that in my day to day. On the other hand, it beats goofing around with my phone. My Bible that best fits your description needs a new cover. I don’t want to carry a king James but my second choice in size and readability is a KJV. The binding is a mess on that one as well 😂 Thank you for your wonderful videos 🌺
Crossway's ESV Thinline Bible is an excellent size for everyday carry. I picked one up recently and I'm surprised by how much I like it. it tucks easily into my computer bag, so it can go wherever I go. It's also easy to hold in church, while taking notes. It's just a good, all-around Bible for multiple venues.
My main EDC Bible is an NAS95 Schuyler Thinline Quentel. As much as I really want to make my Allan my main Bible, I have used, abused, marked up and worn in my Schuyler. It is hard to make the switch and treat my other premium Bible the same way.
NIV Comfort Print Thinline from Zondervan is an outstanding cheap EDC Bible from Zondervan. Perfect size, sturdy, nice and floppy. The Allan NIV1 is a good premium EDC option in NIV. Not as thin as the Zondervan Thinline, but it is as thin as a lot of thinlines (for instance, it's about the same size as that NASB2020 Thinline from Zondervan) and it is a reference Bible, which is nice. The Schuyler PSQ in NIV is another great premium EDC in NIV because it's small (if a little thick) but extremely readable and also has a good reference system. It's my preaching Bible. For ESV, it's really hard to beat any of the ESV Thinline Bibles from Crossway. I have the TruTone, Buffalo Leather, and Top Grain leather editions, and honestly I think the buffalo is better than the top grain even though the buffalo is paste-down and the top grain is edge-lined. The Bible I used as my EDC for years was the now out-of-print full-size NRSV Go-Anywhere Thinline Bible from Harper Bibles. It's truly an astonishingly good Bible. It's slightly taller and wider then most normal-sized Bibles called "thinline" but it's impossibly thin, the thinnest full Bible I own, and it's got a large, readable font, a sewn binding (though it's one of the least pretty fake leather covers out there), it lays beautifully flat after minimal breaking in, it was line-matched before line-matching was cool, and even though it only has three maps, they're on regular Bible paper which I know some folks love. I'll take it any day over any of the new NRSV thinlines from Zondervan. I don't use NRSV as my primary translation anymore (using NIV and NASB2020 instead), but I'll always be impressed by the full-size Go-Anywhere Thinline. I mean, seriously, why can no one else make a Bible THAT thin?
Great channel My EDC is an ESV Thinline Genuine leather and so far I can't find anything to beat it. Paper is not too thin for me, but I don't write in it and no references. I bought a Clarion Calfsplit off amazon for a decent price but the text ran into the gutter, the calfsplit felt like plastic and it was jut a bit too thick. Sent it back because I knew it wouldn't push that thinline out of my EDC. The search continues!
I have a Reformation Study Bible Condensed that's the size you like, and it might be thinner than the CSB you mentioned. Anyway its footprine is 8.25 x 5.25. You might not like the 8 point print or the references and study notes for everyday carry. I do hope you check it out anyway as for those like me who like a very carryable study bible. 1 more thing, I beleive it's a lot thinner than the ESV Compact Study Bible so much easier to carry.
When people think of EDC, they think of knives and all sorts of “gear”, so it was really cool to hear you talk about having a bible for EDC. I think people forget what it actually means.
Diadem's the blowup of the Pitt, right? That in KJV I'll dig. My carry is an Oxford Ruby (Text - not the same as what Allan makes) - it replaced a Cambridge Royal Ruby, with nearly identical specs. And my other choice would prolly be the predecessor of the Cambridge Royal Ruby - the Eyre & Spottiswoode Royal Ruby. 🤪 The Allan Ruby and the Cambridge Pitt Minion have also taken runs as my EDC.
The Good News Bible GNB, aka Good News Translation GNT, aka Today's English Version TEV, and the New Living Translation NLT, and the Contemporary English Version CEV are three accurate and easy to read and easy to understand Bible translations.
The Thomas Nelson KJV Thinline Bible is the perfect size carry Bible. Especially with the comfort print. It’s inexpensive, easy to read and has no references.
As a new viewer and subscriber, I'm quickly figuring out what Bibles you like. But I'm completely bewildered about what baseball team you like. Is this like a running gag? Or are you just a MLB-in-general fan?
just wondering if you would purchase a csb for the first time or a niv for the first time. i only have kjv versions right now. but i am looking to expand, thx in advance.
I enjoyed the video. I love my full yap concord too, but honestly, the words falling into the gutter on a significant level usually has me reach for a different option. True that the Concord is very limited by being available in the KVJ only, but.... couldn’t we say the same thing for Crossway/ESV and the Holman/CSB? 😊
My Bible is the Jimmy Swaggart expository old King James study Bible over 6 million sold Bible thon first of each month Son Life Broadcasting Tv The longest Christian ministry in the History of Television Glory be to God
THANKS for the video Tim and for the shout out! I love that you include very affordable bibles. I'm lookin forward to your "Everyday Use" video.
TBS Windsor. Have many expensive Bibles but this is the one I grab most often
At this point I'm chin deep in Bibles. The "every day carry" is whatever one is closest to my hand.
Ah yes....I know this feeling!
Same here!
This made me laugh, I get it😂
maybe start putting it in your mind then
I agree about the references. Since i started reading a thinline kjv its changed my bible reading. Really helps me focus on reading the word . Great thanks
When the Diadem comes out it’s all over for me. 👌🏻
Have you gotten yours yet and if so what do you think? Just got mine in black calfskin a couple weeks ago.

The Good News Bible GNB, aka Good News Translation GNT, aka Today's English Version TEV, and the New Living Translation NLT, and the Contemporary English Version CEV are three accurate and easy to read and easy to understand Bible translations.
The Thomas Nelson KJV Thinline Bible is the perfect size carry Bible. Especially with the comfort print. It’s inexpensive, easy to read and has no references.
As a new viewer and subscriber, I'm quickly figuring out what Bibles you like. But I'm completely bewildered about what baseball team you like.
Is this like a running gag?
Or are you just a MLB-in-general fan?
just wondering if you would purchase a csb for the first time or a niv for the first time. i only have kjv versions right now. but i am looking to expand, thx in advance.
How do you actually decide which bible to carry daily? I only use one. it’s small and i use it for daily reading too
I did not know you were on Twitter. I am not a fan of compact Bibles, either.
The canbridgeconcord a the 53 longprimer from R L Allen speckeled👌
that Marbled Mahogany Calfskin Full Yapp Concord... I thought it was a Brevier Clarendon at first.
@@keithclayton1271 yes the mahogny marble calfskin I have and the navy blue speckled Allen both is a delight👌🏾
I dunno, my ESV Large Print Study Bible works fine as an EDC. Plus it if you need to defend yourself you can easily knock someone out with it. :)
😂
You're not even kidding! That thing is HUGE!
I like ones that will fit in my cargo pant/short pockets. Probably an ESV
Thankyou
How is the MEV
I enjoyed the video. I love my full yap concord too, but honestly, the words falling into the gutter on a significant level usually has me reach for a different option. True that the Concord is very limited by being available in the KVJ only, but.... couldn’t we say the same thing for Crossway/ESV and the Holman/CSB? 😊
The goldilocks of the Tim's LOL
My Bible is the Jimmy Swaggart expository old King James study Bible over 6 million sold Bible thon first of each month Son Life Broadcasting Tv The longest Christian ministry in the History of Television Glory be to God
The Purpose-Driven Jesus Calling Adult Coloring Book seems to not have made the cut. Again.
Nelson 406!
NKJV, ESV, and a 1599 GENEVA just to show off!
KJV in the only way. If you read anything your being misled that why so many are lost 😞
