This Bible allows KJV users to experience the readable and accurate New King James Version, and it gives NKJV users a direct way to connect with the KJV for detailed study. This is the only center-column reference Bible of its kind available.
Books can be attributed to "Anonymous" for several reasons:
* They are officially published under that name * They are traditional stories not attributed to a specific author * They are religious texts not generally attributed to a specific author
Books whose authorship is merely uncertain should be attributed to Unknown.
I'm rating the edition, not the Bible itself. If you want an extremely in-depth Bible study, this is the way to do it. Commentary is provided for the text, in parallel columns, line by line. The perspective is decidedly evangelical. At times, the interpretation seems a bit strained to fit a particular theological mold, but, on the whole, I found it very informative. The introductions and timelines for each book were also helpful.
Verses appear right across from each other (or very close to it), so it's easy to compare. Both versions use the same subject headings. In addition to the center references, there are textual notes (about different manuscripts, etc.). Reading two translations helps me better understand the text, especially in the case of the archaic KVJ.
