Personal Size Revised Standard Version Bible, Sovereign Collection

Unboxing Thomas Nelson's Sovereign Collection Revised Standard Version (RSV) Personal Size Bible with thumb index (ISBN 9781400337965, Style 7796BK). The cover is black genuine leather.

This is a 66 book (Protestant) Bible.

The Bible is printed in the Zondervan NRSV Typeface, an attractive 9.5 point font. Text is presented in a two-column format, except in poetic books, where a one-column format is used. References and text and translation notes appear at page bottom.

The words of Christ are in black ink. In the copy reviewed, the print is not uniformly dark throughout the volume. For instance, it is much darker in Job than in Romans.

Paper is reasonably opaque and matte (non-reflective, so sheen isn't a problem).

Six color maps are included. There is no concordance, but a topic index is provided.

The Bible is 8.94 x 5.88 x 1.56 inches (8 15/16 x 5 7/8 x 1 9/16 inches) in dimensions.

There are two ribbons, one red, one black. They are 10 mm (about 3/8 of an inch) wide.
