Somehow I've ended up collecting a few Bibles. I was curious to see how many Bibles you own. I have a Ryrie Study Bible, Companion Bible, 2 Scofield Bibles, King James Study Bible, Thompson Chain Reference Study Bible, Westminster Study Bible, 1611 King James Bible, NIV Bible, NASB Bible, Extreme Teen Bible, ESV Pocket sized Bible, World's Smallest Bible, an old antique Bible from the 1800's, a couple of Christian Worker's New Testaments, Classic Soul Winner NT

Hello HsuYinFung I have 3 bibles. One is New King James Precious Moment Series and the World's smallest Bible and Regular Bible. But I only use the regular one, more easy and I can bring it where ever I go, God bless you *angel www.beautycosmetictips.com

What is the Regular Bible? Is that a NKJV Bible too?

There is computer program called Bible Works. Now the sixth version is out. It has more than 100 translations. An excellent resorse also for Greek and Hebrew originals.

I have five Bibles: King James (refuse to use), a Catholic version, NIV (again I refuse to use), a child's Bible, and a Strong's Concordium. I do have a 100 yr old Bible that someone said was a direct translation from Greek. The cover is missing, and I find myself using that one (too many deletions from the KJ and too many changes from the NIV). I also have Mormon Bibles, an Orthodox Bible, koran, and other religious works.

Heh, I have a number of Bibles! Here is a look at my collection: http://url.mattjonesblog.com/bible/ I think I have 25 Bibles. The ones that I use most often are the NASB and the NIV. For study the NASB is the best because it is the most literal, word-for-word translation of the original Hebrew and Greek scriptures. Plus I will often use Logos Bible software that has many more translations as well (so I can make any parallel Bible I want), so that is pretty cool.
