A real highlight this week was going to a 'proper' Christian Book Shop. There are so few of these around now, most having closed down. This one was fairly local to where my son and his wife live. What a delight it is to be able to browse books and bibles in person, than rather via the internet. I came home with two bibles, one of which I had been looking for so was delighted to find. The other was more pricey than on Amazon, but I wanted to support the shop so overlooked the higher price.
The cover is a lovely soft leather (effect I think) and I love the hour glass detailing on the front.
There is a wealth of historical information inside it which I am finding really interesting. It includes other events and records that existed at the same time.
This was the other one, and whilst I would have loved a leather cover, they didn't have one in the shop, and I couldn't justify the extra cost with having bought the Chronological Bible as well. I am looking forward to reading this one as well. They both offer such different things beside what is most important, God's Word, and I hope that they will aid my study further.
