    Finally Found a Bible The Family Can’t Wait to Read!

    My husband and I have been looking for a Bible with illustrations for our kids that represented the biblical Hebrew culture correctly. Our family is OBSESSED with this bible. I originally purchased one, but my boys fight over who gets to use it each day during bible study, so I purchased another today! The references are on point and illustrations are fantastic! Worth the investment and it’s in the KJV!!!! Thank you, and God Bless!

    Excellent Illustrations and Good Format

    This is one of the best Bible’s I ever purchased. It is so nice I wanted to keep it for myself. I just wish it was in other translations. I like the first page has My Roots to document family history. I also like that it is not the old and new testament but the first and second. I always said there is nothing old about God’s Word and this confirms it. Best Bible ever and not just for Black people but all people who want to study the Word of God in accuracy. Get your copy today.

    My 1at grader loves it!

    Love it! My 6 year old is a beginner reader and loves that she can find the books easily In the color coated table of contents. She also loves the pictures in each section. She looks at the pictures and asks me to read that story. She always looks forward time reading the actual bible rather than the story bibles she has

      Thank you Jess for your review. We are happy that your child is enjoying the pictures and benefiting from the colour-coded section feature. Praise be to the Most High!

    Powerful

    This bible leverages the power of imagery to recapture the minds of the reader by correctly depicting our forefathers; by correcting the lie. Every child should have a copy of this beautifully illustrated bible. The images make it very accessible to young early reading children
    I homeschool my 5 year old Reception/Kindergarten age daughter, and I purchased the digital format of this bible for use in our daily bible / cultural studies curriculum. It is my goal to purchase a physical copy also. Unfortunately, the shipping costs to the UK are more than the cost of the bible but as soon as I can find a way to overcome this hurdle I will be back to purchase.

      Thank you Michelle for your thought-provoking review. Praise be to the Most High!

    Excited and Very Pleased!!

    My overall experience is great! I received my Bible earlier than expected. I was shocked when I received My Bible at all the details in it. I do wish that The Apocrypha was also inside but overall I am satisfied. I plan to buy 5 more for Family and Friends. They need to know about OUR TRUE HISTORY and also see images that They erased and lied about Out People! We NEED TO KNOW OUR TRUE IDENTITY!

    I love how it depicts Yahweh’s chosen people

    Great concept — we need books like this. However, I have concerns about the overall quality of this particular publication. Upon doing a quick scan through it when it arrived, I noticed several spelling and punctuation errors.

    I liked it but…..

    I didn’t get my entire order. The Bible is great! However, I ordered the Kings of Israel poster and never received it. It’s especially disappointing because my grandson is ruddy like King David and I had him all excited about the poster but it never came.

  25. Vinton W. (verified owner) –

    Glad I purchased it

    It’s great that my children can see what the actual people of the Bible looked like. I hope that in the future they will add more pictures and include more story’s in it. It really helps to tell the story and have it stick with pictures. Thanks again for your hard work. I will absolutely support inthe future

    I am so happy right now! Our Illustrated Reference Bible came today and I just couldn’t wait to open it. It actually came sooner than expected! Beautifully done and representation is everything, so I can’t wait to start reading with my 4 year old. I absolutely love the “comic strips” and genealogy maps that’ll give her a visual reference for some of the things we are reading. I am so thankful for the folks that made this possible. APTTMH!
