ESV Clarion Reference Bible, Black Edge-lined Goatskin Leather, ES486:XE Black Goatskin Leather Leather Bound – Illustrated, 10 Nov. 2011

In my view (and I have researched and handled most of the ESV Bibles available), I would regard this Cambridge Clarion ESV and its layout the best . It is a good sized print, retains the rich resources of the reference system first developed back in the late nineteenth century for us with the old RV Bible. The leather is good quality. For those looking for a larger print ESV with references this is a hard one to beat. Neat to handle and hold as well.

This is a amazing Quality made bible, I have had a few, I had a pitt minion and a esv heirloom, and I think this clarion is by far the best bible I own, I have herd people complaining about the thinnest if the paper its but that thin, and it's line matched so it's really readable, it's goatskin leather is so soft and flexible, it's a great size bible for all purpose it's comfortable to hold even in one hand, I have also herd people complaining about page curling, I have not experienced that with any of my bibles, if that does happen though it should go once the bible is worn in a little, it's single column format and has the references down the side of the text, it's a type size 8.75 and a great font with nice spacing so it's really readable it's a nice size font considering the Pitt minion is 6.75 type, I think this is a great buy and you will be very happy.

Absolute superb bible excellent concordance and maps opens beautifully Got shoved somewhat unceremoniously through letter box but survived surprised even under lockdown that a Bible is not better handled Nevertheless it’s wonderful opens flat also really helpful us one column print easy to read font and with references down the side all in all very pleased nothing against China but it is nice to have a Bible printed and bound in the Netherlands Europe as all my other bibles are printed in China.

I bought this Bible on behalf of a friend. It wasn't exactly what he was looking for (perhaps I should have read the information and reviews more closely before purchasing) but nevertheless it includes all the books of the Bible and has a nice leather cover and lots of cross-referencing notes

Excellent product. Beautifully bound and finished. Nice to handle and not too bulky. This is a very easy to read translation and the layout is so easy to follow. The only (very slight) criticism is that this edition was not available in an anglicised form, but that is not really a problem. The print size is very clear and the margin being on the left of the page is also a good point. In every respect it fills a much needed reading experience for this wonderful book.

This is a beautiful bible. Wonderful feel. Clear layout and text. I hope it will be by my side for many years to come.

Expensive but very clear. Takes some getting used to after NIV. I expected the text to be bolder type but it does read quite easily.

What a wonderfully sized bible, this will definitely be my travel bible on my business trips. The smell of the new leather is just amazing, the way the soft goatskin feels is your hand gives you just the greatest pleasure, it's just the right weight & the text in the ESV is easy enough to read, although the paper is thin (only way Cambridge could keep it the size it is), Cambrige has mitigated the see-through on the page by using line matching to perfection .I have several high end bibles & am a firm believer that the word of Our Lord needs to be wrapped in something special, that will last me a lifetime to pass on to my children & Cambrige has certainly done that in the Clarion ESV, I simple ENJOY this bible!Now I'm waiting for my Clarion KJV to arrive, also in the black goatskin, looking forward to having the KJV in a single column, paragraph format. Very exciting!!!
