Who it suits

This suits the reader who carries a Bible to church, to a study group, or in a daypack, and who does not need notes or margins. It is also a sensible first Bible to buy in quantity for a group, since the price is low.

The tradeoff is the trade you make on purpose: smaller print and thin paper to keep it slim, and no room to write. Readers who want larger type should choose a large-print edition, and anyone who likes to journal should look at the ESV Single Column Journaling Bible instead.

Where to buy

Frequently asked questions

Is the print large enough to read comfortably?

It is standard thinline print, which runs on the smaller side to keep the Bible slim. If small type is a strain, choose a large-print thinline edition instead; it costs a little more and adds some bulk.
