 Feeling Like a Horse's Patoot August 30, 2008

I'm extremely dissatisfied with this product! I bought it thinking James Earl Jones would read the Bible with his signature slow, rich voice and I didn't notice he'd only be reading the New Testament. Unfortunately, Mr. Jones and Jon Sherberg, who reads the Old Testament, both race through the sacred texts as if the recording studio was on fire. Mr. Sherberg adds insult to injury by his flamboyant delivery ~ "eevill" a la Mike Meyer and other dramatic flourishes. With hindsight, I wouldn't buy an audio Bible without being able to listen to part of it first because you can't return CDs once they're opened. So I'm just out about $50 because I don't even know anyone who'd want this dud! FYI: Johnny Cash has an audio reading of the New Testament that's excellent. I just wish he'd done the Old Testament....
 Audio Bible August 29, 2008
It is great to have the bible on CD. I however would have wanted the readers to slow down. It would have made the experience of listening a little more interesting. I really enjoyed the Bible Experience CD's much better.
 Increase Retention in Bible Study July 19, 2008

This is a great product - the Bible on CD. I listen and read along each morning. I remember better what I have both seen and heard at the same time. I am suddenly quoting scriptures because I remember them better. I also sometimes play the CDs in the car or when I work. It puts me into a better frame of mind. My only gripe: James Earl Jones did not bother to correct his reading errors, and there are quite a few. The other reader, Jon Sherberg, is great though.
pace is a little too quick July 6, 2008

I love James Earl Jones' voice, but after listening to an extensive sample, I did not like the pace of the reading. It is a bit fast for my taste. Enunciation was great, voice was great. If you prefer a rapid delivery, this might be for you. I did not hear the other reader, so no review on the Old Testament reading.
My advice for people looking at an audio version is to go to other sites and listen to samples. It would be highly beneficial for Amazon to have audio samples in the same manner that they do for music. It would save a lot of effort!

I WAS SKEPTICAL ABOUT THE BIBLE ON CD. I BOUGHT IT BECAUSE I NEEDED TO READ THE WORD EACH DAY. IT HAS BEEN A GOOD DECISION AND ONE THAT I WOULD RECOMMEND TO ANYONE WHO NEEDS IT.
