Purchase options and add-ons

A Cambridge Clarion Reference Bible presents the text in a single column with the cross-references in the outer margin, giving the page a very well laid out appearance. The font size is a little under 9 point with generous line spacing. It is typeset in Lexicon No.1, a modern digital font which has many of the characteristics usually associated with traditional Bible typefaces―in particular, a degree of readability more usually associated with much larger type. The Clarion edition is the only NASB personal size reference Bible with a single-column paragraph format. The Bible has 15 new color maps and a concordance. There are two ribbons to keep the place in different parts of the Bible. This is a Bible of the very highest quality, printed on India paper, Smyth-sewn for flexibility and endurance, and bound in black calf split leather.

Normally outstanding workmanship
Normally, the Cambridge Bibles are great. Great feel to the paper, soft and supple binding, and they’re durable. Unfortunately, my recently purchased Calfskin Bible has an obvious printing error: all the maps are upside down. Now, it’s not like the maps are an often-used tool, but it is unfortunate to see such an obvious flaw go missed! If there wasn’t a printing issue with my Bible I received this would easily be a 7/5 stars—it is a great Bible. There’s nothing else like it on the market except maybe Schuyler, but I think the Cambridge Bibles are better because the size of the Cambridge’s are perfect.

Don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with the goatskin version.. I actually bought this because I am afraid to carry the goatskin version around with me for fear of it getting damaged. I was not expecting the calf split leather version to be as nice as it is. I absolutely love this thing. Maybe it's the feel of the leather, but with the goatskin, I feel like I am going to break it.. it is so soft. This Bible is exactly what I was after. The stiffness of the leather starts to soften almost immediately, yet it is durable and feels like it is well protected. All I can say is that this Bible is excellent, and If I had to choose between this one, or the more expensive goatskin as my one Bible to own, I would choose this one. Because I found a "like new" version on amazon, I actually paid a hundred dollars less for this version as well! Aside from the leather, the NASB Clarion is all around great. The text is the most readable of any Bible I've ever handled. The line matching is nearly perfect, and it is just a pleasure to read. I had been reading a standard $30 Bible for some months now, and thought my eyes were adjusting to the bleed through.. but now that I am reading this regularly, I just can't go back. Any Bible that is a reliable translation is a great Bible, but the NASB Clarion is more beneficial for me than others I have used, as I can read more clearly without focusing so much on what the words are, and I can focus more on what the words mean! Reading the black letters is always crucial, but never forget to read the white as well.

This Bible is an absolute joy to read. It lays beautifully in my hand. The paper is bright white. To reduce the effect of ghosting, the lines on the backing page are printed right behind each line. The font, though just 8.75 is very readable. The binding is sewn and the calfskin leather feels great. The cover is flexible enough to make quick access to a specific chapter/verse easy. It supports the pages just enough that reading with one hand holding the Bible is comfortable. It has a 110 page concordance! Maps (with index) are excellent. This was a big expenditure for me; I am delighted that I made it! I was reading the NASB daily on my Kindle. Now I look up the daily reading on my Kindle and read them in this Bible!

This bible IS a quality bible.

I purchased this for my wife to replace her $30 bible, and I shopped and shopped, compared reviews and product material. For the reasonable price of around $120, you are getting well made, nearly "heirloom" quality bible. Ok, perhaps "heirloom" is an extreme description for any book, but the leather cover is luxurious, the paper strong, and the print does not shadow-through, enough to distract. Of course I am saying this from my experience of owning "cheaper" (can Gods Word an any form be cheap?) prints by Zondervan and such, under $60.

In short, the split calf is thick, though supple, and does not spill over you hand making reading difficult. Tight tight binding, and perfect cupt paper. Nice deep gold accent.

This bible, if taken care of, will last a lifetime of reading enjoyment, and a good friend!

Absolutely everything about this edition is excellent! The binding, the paper, the font, line matching, single column format, the Calf split leather (tough and durable unlike the flimsy and wimpy goatskin edition), references, hand-sized, and portable... the perfect Bible.
The NIV Clarion also has thicker, brighter paper than previous Clarion editions (I also own the NASB & ESV Clarion editions), and the format appears to be enhanced/spaced for an even cleaner look too. The NIV Cambridge Clarion (or any Cambridge Clarion) is definitely money well spent.
**The show through is not as bad as shown in the photos. These photos were taken with entirely too much light above.

This is a great Bible, beautifully made. It lay open flat within 2 days of my taking it out of the box, and it feels great in my hand, just the right size. I love the paragraph format and the print is a perfect size, easy to read and well spaced between lines. This book is made for reading! The pages are thin, yet the line matching is excellent and there's almost no ghosting.

The Bible is slightly stiff when new but it "flexes" just enough, after you've used it a few times, that it's comfortable in your hand and flexible without being floppy. One small disappointment is that the pages curl very quickly at the top and bottom, and I haven't figured out a way to prevent it unless I keep the Bible closed all the time. Other than that, if you like the paragraph format, this is a Bible you'll love.

Yes, I would recommend this Bible. Its style lends itself to keeping it nearby and picking it up every chance I get.

My 4th Clarion. I have 2 NIV goatskin and an ESV goatskin. The NASB is as expected. I think I like the calf skin of the NASB better than the goatskin but time will tell. These Bibles have an almost perfect font size. I'm almost 50 and can preach from them easily. They stay open and I can hold them easily in one hand. There's enough room in the margins for notes. I have lots of Bibles, but I read and preach from the Clarion.

I've been looking for a Bible made with durable construction for a long time because I don't want to keep buying replacement Bible's every couple years, and have had my eye on this one for a while, but was concerned because of the size.

When it arrived and I took it out of the box, my first thought was "oh no, the text is going to be microscopic", but then I opened it and was surprised and impressed by how clear and readable the text is on this Bible! It's comparable to the 10 pt font in the Bible that it's replacing.

The paragraph format is a bit foreign at first, if you're used to references being stuck in the middle, but, it is actually more natural and intuitive, so I feel like you adjust quite quickly to it.

Reviewed in Canada on June 21, 2021
The size of this Bible is good for travelling and also to keep at bedside.
Typeset is 8.75 on French paper, printed and bound in Netherlands.
It is easy to read even though it has only one column format. With one column format it is easier to lose my spot while reading but because it is a smaller size Bible, this has not been a problem. This edition is in black calf split leather; looks and feels good.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 2, 2019
I love the Clarion series for the one-column layout. Much easier to read and to study, and the sewn binding lays flat for reading aloud in church or with others. The NASB is an interesting version, reasonably close to NIV and not too dissimilar from NKJV - but very interesting to have the comparison.
The cover is high quality and feels like it will last several lifetimes.

5.0 out of 5 stars exquisite... finally
Reviewed in Japan on January 22, 2016
1-2016: I bought this used on Amazon japan for ¥10,000 , yet it looks totally like new... I've owned many Cambridge Bibles and this one is by far my favorite .... it's exquisite .... I would say it's the perfect Bible , finally the font is so sharp and clear... true the pages are thin but that's what you get in a small portable Bible like this but the paper is very high-quality.... and it's very comfortable to hold ...the font is small compared to Cambridge presentation Bible but I like it so much better ... there's none of the annoying pronunciation marks which clutter up the text, I love the paragraph format, the way the sections of the Old Testament are set like poetry , the way Old Testament material that appears in the New Testament is put in capital letters , the cross references and translators notes in the margin are a wealth of information, true these notes are very tiny and I have to use a magnifying glass but again they're very sharp and clearly printed ... amazing technical achievement in this Bible.... and this NASB translation I think is the best modern English translation .. (I had the KJV clarion but I found the block of text to be too dense , the paragraphs very long with no headings, it was just very hard for me to read and I returned that) but this nasb is so much more readable ... the way the text is presented is so much better... (also I like the calf split leather cover much better than the more expensive goatskin covers which of late have been very thin and rather poorly made) .... this split calf leather material is very nice , very comfortable to hold , it offers more support... feels good too...its not droopy like the supersoft goatskin covers .... also there's two black ribbons the gilding on the page edges is very well done ... everything about this Bible is perfect to me... it's the best Cambridge Bible I've ever owned and I've owned pretty much all the Cambridge Bibles... I've been buying Cambridge Bibles for over 20 years and finally I decided to try this Bible and I'm just amazed that I bought it used but I don't think it is used , it's really beautiful , exquisite , this Bible makes reading an adventure .... also I found with the thin paper if I smooth it out with my fingers as I read it The font becomes a bit darker.... it takes a little while to get used to the smaller font I wear glasses , my vision is not that good but this is very sharp and clear and it works good for me.
