The NKJV Color Code Study Bible is a beautifully crafted Bible. I love the cosmetic appeal of this particular Bible. It stands out for its thoughtful physical design and durable construction. In short, the physical craftsmanship ensures that this Bible is both aesthetically pleasing and built to withstand regular use. But beyond that, what sets this Bible apart is its unique color-coding system, designed to enhance thematic understanding of Scripture. I had a color-coded Bible when I went off to college... Read more

Sadly (and oddly), the authors don’t appear to... Read more
