If only people knew! I'd be all over it, however, if it were for a much easier-to-read translation. Blindness is enough to keep someone from reading it. This deal is, nonetheless, pure fire!

I know it's a popular book, but I found it poorly-written, contradictory, and extremely boring. The plot makes no sense and the "God" character is a monster.

1 Corinthians 1:18 For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written: "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, And bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.

This KJV Bible comes out to 6.33 cents per book; holding out for the Catholic one which at the same price would come out to 5.81 cents per book.

Ever since the protestant Bible dropped the deuterocanonical books for no explicable reason 100 years ago it just hasn't been as slick of a deal. Shrinkflation is everywhere, I guess.

What parts did you personally find contradictory?

If you're in the market for a KJV, this is a good price for sure. If you're looking for any Bible, I'd personally recommend going with a more modern translation depending on what you're going for (readability, accuracy). ESV, NASB, NKJV, CSB, NLT are good options to try.

That GBTUSA bible has some reviews out there (look for Tim Wildsmith's video on it) and I wouldn't recommend it at that price point. Yes, it is unique in that it includes what it does, but you could get a much better KJV at the $60 price point.

You can read it for free on the web:
https://www.biblegateway.com/pass...ersion=KJV

or on your phone with the ability to listen to someone speaking them out loud: https://play.google.com/store/app...d&hl=en_US

They should have larger text size.

All modern translations of the Bible are copyrighted and corrupted with altered words and meanings.

The NIV has removed lots of bible verses: https://www.reddit.com/r/Christia...re_versus/ [reddit.com]

The KJV is the only authentic version.
NIV didn't "remove" anything, the best available [at the time] scrolls that they used were missing these ~40 or so verses. There is zero evidence of any sort of coordinated campaign to deliberately omit anything.

You must realize that until Gutenberg invented the printing press, books (including the Bible) were painstakingly copied by hand, one character at a time, and that the books were not organized into chapters and verses until much later. Out of the many many thousands of pages, it is not inconceivable that someone accidentally skipped a sentence, or word, or transliterated, or whatever.

Generic KJV Bibles should be free or better [edit: because plenty of organizations hand these out]. Not even slightly slick.

Is that one of the poorly-written parts, or the extremely boring parts?

Um, God wrote the bible, not Gutenbreg or whatever. I don't think he'd accidentally do anything.
