Before I get into the vital features of this Bible I want to expound on its subjective qualities that have endeared it to me. At first glance most people won’t notice the exceptional quality of this Bible until they pick it up and give it a closer look. Some folks won’t even notice even after picking it up. That is not to say the Cambridge Concord Reference Bible is average or plain. It is because the Concord is how a Bible is supposed to be. It is the quintessential archetype of reference Bibles. It smells like a Bible, it looks like a Bible, and it feels like a Bible. When I pick it up to read from, I don’t have to struggle with it. It does exactly what it should do. It stays out of the way and allows me to focus on reading God’s word. Everything about it is conducive to that end.
For me, it is the perfect size and weight to hold in one hand. I can comfortably read it while sitting in my favorite chair. It isn’t heavy or unwieldy enough to require being laid on a table or desk. It isn’t so small as to necessitate being held close. It is not a thick Bible, yet contains many references and some helps.
It is not printed on such light paper that the pages curl up and blow around while you are trying to read. The pages are not a bright white. They are off white. Bright white pages tend to make my eyes strain during long durations of reading the word. The India paper is strong and opaque.
There is approximately 7/16ths of an inch in the margins for note taking.
The text is a nine point font that is printed appears pretty bold.
The Concord is a double column verse format with pronunciations. It has the references in the center column.
Even with the references, 128 page Bible Dictionary, Concordance, Glossary, and 15 color maps, the Concord maintains a thin profile without sacrificing paper quality. The pages are art gilded. An art gilded page edge compared to a gilded page edge looks a bit more attractive. It gives the page edges a red tint behind the gold color. Before they put the gold colored aluminum foil on the page edges they first coat them with a red ink. Then they apply the gold color gilding. When the Bible is closed the edges show gold, when the Bible is open you can see the red show through the gold.
The binding, outside cover, and inside liner, make it supple and comfortable to hold. This one is edge lined not case bound. It is rigid enough to not flop around like some unlined Bibles do, while it maintains flexibility with its synthetic liner that is stitched to the outside cover edges with black thread.
The Binding is a smyth-sewn binding done by Jongbloed in the Netherlands. They are famous for their quality work and history of Binding Bibles. Currently, most luxury Bibles are bound by Jongbloed. A sewn binding is a must in my opinion. If you hope to hand a Bible down to your children and for them to use it a sewn binding is the only option. With a sewn edge lined binding all of the pages are stacked in separate pamphlets called signatures. These are then stacked and sewn to tapes or strings in the spine of the Bible as well as being sewn to each other. This is why you don’t have the front and back pages falling out of a sewn binding like you would with a glued case bound perfect binding where the pages are cut, then stacked, then rubber cemented together. Those pages are not connected to each other in any way. If you bend the spine in a glued Bible, eventually pages will start falling out. Not so with a sewn binding. If you take care of it and treat it with respect it will last and last. The other benefit of this binding is the functionality of it. The Concord lays flat right out of the box.
The cover doesn’t flop up and get in the way. The covers can be rolled backwards and out of the way even. I wouldn’t do this as a practice, but that is how flexible this Bible is. This particular Bible is a red letter edition.
That simply means that the words of Jesus are printed in red text, including places where He is quoted by the apostles. Some people find this to be a very helpful feature. The Concord has two black ribbon markers. They are good quality without being too thick.
I have had some Bibles with thicker markers that actually imprint on the pages they are between. I have had other Bibles with markers that were so thin that they crinkled up and are almost useless. It is very unattractive to open the Bible up to crinkled pages or markers. The Concord has neither problem. The Bible ships in a clamshell type retail box. I would keep the Box for storage. This Bible is to supple to stand on its edge. It should be laid flat on a flat surface when not in use. There was a slight problem with the shipping. You can read about that here.
Cambridge has assured me they are looking into this and it shouldn’t happen again. This Bible is as pretty close to being perfect. If Cambridge would produce this in an NASB I would be satisfied.
Here are a few good places on the web to purchase this Bible if you are in the market.

Over all, I found the Concord to be a superlative Bible. It stands out from the mass produced Chinese and Korean Bibles as an example of what they should be aiming for.

The Approximation of the Printing Press
Everybody thinks printing began on 15th century on Germany with Johannes Gutenberg, at least we have been taught so at school. Actually printing is an art that is significantly older than Gutenbergs press. The initiatory samples conserved come discounting Tile, as to 220 BC, and yourself were woodblocks crafted to be the case stamped with ink upon clothing. Buddhism help the transmigration without clothing decoration until spoor texts preservation, those key texts were impressed on clothing through woodblock printing. The oldest book infixed by this control is the Diamond-Sutra in the fifth century. <\p>
There are many examples in India of Buddhism printing practices as Buddhism considered the texts in themselves essential and almost sacred remedial of religious practices. Egypt and Japan similarly used the woodblock technique for printing. Favorable regard Eurasian landmass in the 1200's woodblock stamps for reprinting clothes was well out known, and modish the 1400's paper become all-around easily, artisans began to panorama religious images and playing cards. <\p>
In the 15th century Johannes Gutenberg overdeveloped the unbridled idea concerning movable type. Movable type was unbridled due to the fact that you could compose many words with (depending on the na-dene) logical 24 to 30 characters. Movable type was prudential and could be used up over and over again composing quite some in relation to determinate words. Changeful type was made of metal instead speaking of woodblock, so it was pluralistic perennial and quicker without woodblock, which in fact ego were gigantic stamps. The precious metals used (manage) was perfect for the molds, easy to use and to work with. As important as the letters was the ink that Gutenberg developed - an oil-based ink not singular durable and with superior quality than water-based inks used before. <\p>
The movable type and printing press were such a lead that after just 20 years of Gutenbergs primitivity invention (1455), there were printers over the European continent from Krakw, Poland to Venice, Italy. Venice printers grew exponentially in 31 years, inpouring 1469 the first printing press arrived at the gondolas city and by 1500 there were 417 printers working. <\p>
The first copperplate hand press used in America, was brought on route to Mexico Suburb on 1539 and the sovereign Asian press printing was introduced in the Philippines by the Spaniards in 1593. By use of 1638 the first printing press arrived at the New England colonies; these opening move copy presses later derived the company named The Cambridge Press. <\p>
Like was the success in connection with printing that many banks and lenders specialized in printers and they evolved into the publishing industry which was a far more complex industry with authors, publishers and printers, which we now know as the publishing and media industry. <\p>
Update on the Cambridge Concord and Transetto Shipping Damage.
I was contacted by an employee of Cambridge Press. (I didn’t get permission to use their name or quote them so I’ll use general references.) They told me they would be looking into how the two Bibles came to be packed improperly and incurred damage during shipping due to the improper packaging. I promptly received an e-mail back from my contact at Cambridge Press. They concluded during their…
