Good News Translation Bible (with Deuterocanonicals/Apocrypha) Paperback – Student Edition, November 30, 1996

I have purchased many of these over the years - primarily for our middle school Sunday School & confirmation class kids. In general, I have found the GNT to be a great balance of readability with pretty good rendering of the text in English (absolutely not the most literal of translations, but one of the best in contemporary English). The price for these books is really incredible. Only complaint is that the text is pretty small for some people.

Font is easy to read. Bigger than that of another bible that I bought. Satisfied.

It is essentially a compact Good News Bible with the Deuterocanonical books, following the 73 book Canon of the Roman Catholic Church. It does have Imprimatur, which we find in small print on the very first page:Imprimatur✠Most Reverend William H. Keeler. D.D.President, National Conference of Catholic BishopsMarch 10, 1993The book is smaller than I expected, but still within the realm of what I was looking for. It is about as tall as a smart phone, and a little wider. The text is relatively small, and I have an image of a quarter on the page to give an idea the size. The Cover of the Book isn't made of any cheap paper like you'd find on an economy Bible, I would describe it as feeling like a strange composite, relatively thick. Pages aren't super thin, about what you'd expect. All in all a great book.

I really enjoyed reading this modern English translation of the Holy Bible. I highly recommend this version of the Bible.

Awesome, just wish the size was a bigger

Convenient to carry around. Font is very easy on the eyes.👀

The Size of this Bible is very good for when you are Traveling. It is also easy to read and understand because it is written in Today's English.The only thing is that Print is a little small (for me).

Just what I was hoping for.Large printResource packed (maps, dictionary, etc)CheapMy only complaint is that the text goes quite far into the gutter.
