I really hope they make a NKJV version of the Stridon. That would be my dream Bible! I also love that you were able to get your hands on one early so we could all see it. I also really love to see the great community of Bible reviewers already commenting on this as well!
Thanks for another brilliant Bible review Randy. You have a lot of great comments; noticing and comparing details. One of the BEST elements of your reviews is that you COMPARE to similar Bibles. It is super helpful when you physically compare Bibles as it is their physical nature that we are personally drawn to. We at least want to see (and compare sizes with other Bibles) if we aren’t able to hold them. Thank you as you always do this so well in your reviews.
I’m in agreement with you regarding the KJV version. It would be my perfect Bible. Although, and I know it would increase the thickness, I’d be happy if they’d use 45gsm paper. I have both the Clarion and Treveris with the 28gsm paper and I find the show through in places quite off putting
I have a KJV wide margin I’m selling In the green color! Was a bit rough for me to read with the old language. Hmu if you want it can ship to you and all that.
@@born2win262 Thanks for the offer, but I'm going to wait and see what else comes out during 2022 as I think there may be some exciting Bibles on the way
I love this layout. Verse by verse with poetic setting and letters still looking like letters. I think this is one of the best layouts I've seen. I love how they did the references and footnotes separate. You must be able to differentiate them, something I wished Thomas Nelson would do with the NKJV. This is what I had hoped Crossway would have done with their preaching Bible, single column, verse by verse with poetic settings and a different colour for the chapter and verse numbers in an all black letter text. Lovely Bible layout. One thing I'd change in this Bible though and that would be to have each book of the Bible starting on a new page instead of continuing on the same page where the previous one ended.
This will be my first Schuyler Bible. I am over the moon thrilled to have the Stridon on order. I keep watching this video because I am so excited to receive mine. 🙂Great video!!
I'm not a single column person. The only exception would be a larger print with references in the outer margins and footnotes neatly placed at the page bottom. I also prefer thicker paper because I am a note taker. Schuyler nailed that green though. It's nice and quiet, and the complement of the shiny ribbons makes for an attractive Bible. :)
Thank you so much for this review. I was taking a look at the specific model in this color and I was contemplating if to get another Skyler besides the Thinline NASB I have.
I wish they'd ditch the wide margins and use 11-pt font like the Quentel. It looks like they couldn't decide whether to make a wide margin or not but the margins use up too much real estate. It's a big Bible. I like white space too. I don't like "walls of text." I also wish it were the NASB95 instead of the 2020. I enjoy your reviews and you're becoming my favorite reviewer!
Awesome review! That Bible looks amazing 😎 I think they really did an amazing job with this layout 😉 I ordered a calfskin, looking forward to seeing it 😍
@@crucified4me Holding up great it actually looks better the more I use it. It's my everyday Bible 😊 The layout on this Stridon though is what I have been hoping for, for a long time!
@@joelfields9807 Yes, it's very appealing to me as well. If this was a NKJV it would probably become my next main Bible. Nice to reconnect my brother 🤗
I love the single collum verve by verve. The NASB is what I’m using. I’m attending Corban university and that’s the layout I use. Never could afford a Bible like that but would love to own one one day. How much do one of those cost brother.
Hi Randy, Schuyler appears to have copied the Legacy Standard Bible design regarding format, but have got references which my LSB Shamar goatskin does not have, which does not bother me because my other bibles do so am not short of reference material. I prefer my LSB to this Stridon for the main reason that LSB is compatible by size to the Treveris, which I have and love in KJV, which makes the LSB much lighter for me to hold to read than my Quentel which is what this Striden is compatile with by size. The other difference between LSB and Stridon is 9pt v's 10pt type respectively. I'm sure many people will love the Stridon who have not got the LSB. Thank you for your review....those green ribbons look lovely.
I cannot for the life of me understand how any modern designed bible, especially one this beautiful, was designed having books start on the same page as the end of the prior book!! How on earth did they not start new books on new pages???
I don’t think I may get a Schuyler due to the 28GSM I need at least 36 GSM for a bible like this and so I wouldn’t be afraid to highlight so much I almost highlight full pages like 1 John Ephesians and Romans etc 28GSM is not good for that especially with on top of that I underline everything I highlight as well as write in the margins so 28GSM really wont work. (Do you know any other NASB95 Bible of this quality like Schuyler with a higher GSM?)
They haven't shown a 2020 Quentel on their publishing schedule. If they did, the regular size would come first and the PSQ would come about a year later.
Attention Schuyler buyers. I bought a new Stridon NASB and was surprised to discover that tens of pages had unaligned, garbled and unreadable references at the bottom of the pages. I contacted Evangelical and this is the reply I got from them: We're sorry to hear that your new Stridon did not meet your expectations! It's not entirely unusual for red print to be misaligned from the black print even in a premium Bible, as these parts of the pages are printed at different times. Publishers do not consider this issue to be a printing defect unless the text overlaps and becomes unreadable. If you have pages that look like this, please send us some photos for review. We apologize for any inconvenience. Beware and check before you buy the Stridon.
That’s pretty nice but what’s the price tag? I just got a Niv thinline black goatskin with silver art gild and 3 3/8 blue ribbons for 80$. I also want to say the leather on mine is the most pebbled cover I’ve ever held. They must have been listening to your review on it. It’s the best Bible I’ve had in years. I’ve been a Christian for almost 30 years. I was shocked at the quality of the Bible for the price. Made in China or not. Best looking Bible made… Sleek,classy and practical… As well as best bang for your buck easily.
The design is perfect! I have heard from Evangelical Bible that they do plan to do more translations (YAY!) but the NASB77 is not going to be published. I have heard that Lockman is going to release bibles with this say typesetting so hopefully they will do the 95.
@@brandoncash563 Right now (2023) they still have the NASB 1995 in the Quentel and smaller PSQ. I wonder if the current printing will be the last one, though. Might want to grab one while they are still available if you like the '95 and want a Schuyler Bible. (I am not a fan of the 2020 edition.)
Hi Mark. The Heritage has a little more white space in the text. TIts footprint is a little smaller, but it's also a little thicker. Other than that, it's just a difference between paragraph and verse-by-verse.

Hello Sir thanks for the review. How do you compare this with Crossway's heirloom heritage?

I haven't. Thanks for the suggestion. I'm glad you like the reviews!
Hi Which translations do you prefer for when you preach and when you're reading yourself?
@@kristenfortin-ashburne9979 I use the KJV the most. It's what I grew up with and what I'm used to. I also try to read a different translation every year. This year, I'm reading the NASB 2020. Last year was the 95 NASB just so I could read them back-to-back.
Thank you. I like to primarily read from RSVCE and like to compare a reading to my Douray Rheims, KJV, NIV translations. God Bless.
I second your request for a KJV in this format!
Just to clarify was the Quentel thicker or the Stridon?
The Stridon is slightly thicker.
is it a big bible? or is it handy?

@@BibleBuyingGuide Does the Stridon not include verses such as Matthew 17:21 whereas the 95’ Quentel has it in brackets?
@@OrlandoVergelJr it's been moved to the footnotes in the NASB 2020, so it's not in the text.

Isn’t Holman doing a KJV very similar to this layout this year?
Yes. It is the exact layout with red chapter and verse numbers.

I GENERALLY DON'T LIKE SINGLE COLUMN BUT IT IS GROWING ON ME.
Do you prefer this over LSB or vice versa?
I haven't read enough of the LSB yet to compare them.
This would be absolutely perfect if it were full paragraph as opposed to verse-by-verse.
Really unfortunate they don't have this in the 95 text.
