Product Description

Archbishop Desmond Tutu

`The world's most popular modern translation'


Review

'we [Westminster Chapel] have been using it [the NIV] for about fifteen years, and we are extremely happy that it is part of our regular ministry.' (Dr R. T. KENDALL )

'I am frequently asked to read a lesson during a church service, and the NIV seems almost invariably to be the version to be used. Its strength, clarity and dignity strike me each time I read aloud.' (SIR CLIFF RICHARD, OBE )

'Over the past 21 years the NIV has established itself as one of the most widely used and appreciated modern versions of the Bible. The quality of its translation richly deserves this wide recognition and I hope that it will continue to be of equal benefit to many more people in the years to come.' (The Most Revd and Right Honourable The Lord Archbi )

5.0 out of 5 stars An easy read, 6 Mar 2001
By A Customer
Of all the versions I have read of the holy bible this is the easiest to understand. It is therefore a good gift to give a new christian or a person interested in christianity. The acuracy of the text is excellent and so makes a good version for study.

To help you through this book the 18 page guide helps both experienced bible readers and the novice find the people, places and stories of interest. I find this particularly useful when I am to tell the stories from the bible to young children.

I would recommend everyone to have a copy of this bible in ther home.

5.0 out of 5 stars brilliant, 23 April 2003
i bought an NIV as it's the version used in my church, and i wanted a Bible that i could follow the readings with. this is a very good edition, including a Bible guide at the back, pointing out the page and verse references to important events, parables, miracles and so on. also has the all-essential Holy Land maps, just in case you ever find yourself lost in Israel! the pages aren't too delicately thin, and the book flops open comfortably, so it should last me a while!

2.0 out of 5 stars The Gold Standard in Mediocrity, 26 Jan 2009
By N. B. Croad (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Good points: It flows well and so is easy to read, especially to an audience.
Bad points: Like most modern bibles the New Testament is based on the now fatally flawed Greek text of Nestle Aland/United Bible Societies. As a consequence many valid passages are reduced to footnotes eg "some authorities insert here ----" Which makes it very hard going if you want an accurate reading for study. Like most modern versions many passages affecting Christian doctrine are left out or reduced to footnotes. If you want accuracy and easy reading then you would be better off with the New King James Bible. If you want to know what an obscure passage means, then you would be better off with the New Living Bible (2nd Edition).
