UBS Greek New Testament: Reader's Edition with Textual Notes (Black) ReviewI received my Crossway Top-Grain Leather UBS Greek New Testament (GNT) Reader's Edition today and it is great.
First, I would like to address the complaint in another review that the paper is cheap and thick paper unsuitable for a GNT. While I have a few very expensive Cambridge bibles that have higher quality paper, the paper quality in this GNT is still very good. As to the thickness of the paper, the paper is a heavyweight paper for at least 2 good reason: first, this GNT is a READER'S EDITION so the thickness of the paper prevents "ghosting" where the text on the reverse side of the page can be seen trough the paper and obscure the text on the side of the page you are reading and, thus, the thickness of the paper aids in making Crossway's GNT more readable; second, I assume most people who are reading this GNT will be using it for study and making numerous notes in the GNT in pen/pencil, and the heaviness of the paper will hold up well to pen/pencil notes and help against "bleed-through" of the notes to the opposite side of the page. In short, the paper is thick/heavy - but with a purpose.
As to the font, it is large (11 point), of a medium weight or thickness, and is very readable font (as opposed to some of the other GNTs out there that, while having a large point size, use thin or "lightweight" fonts that are almost unreadable). I have somewhat aging eyes, and I have no problem reading the small "breathing marks"/accents on the Greek words in the Crossway GNT( which I usually have a hard time reading in other GNTs). I am VERY pleased with the font.
As to the binding, the top-grain cowhide is very supple (almost as soft as my calfskin bibles). The cover is neither limp or stiff. The cover is of a medium stiffness which holds up well to the heaviness of the text block but is still limp enough to be flexible and very comfortable to hold in the hand. Also, the binding is Smyth-sewn for durability of binding. In short, a very nice binding which I am happy with.
In short, it is a BIG and HEAVY GNT; but again, it is a Reader's Edition which needs to be large to be readable. The paper and font are great for reading, and those looking for a very nice, durable, quality leather bound GNT should be very happy.
P.S. I am NOT related to Crossway (the publisher) in any way.
