A great way to get religion. June 25, 2008 M. Silbernagel (Santee, CA USA) I have to be honest - James Earl Jones has read more Bible to me than I ever read on my own. And you can listen to the Bible while you're multi-tasking. James Earl Jones has a fantastic voice and there are no extraneous choirs or music in the background. The only negative I can add has already been pointed out by other reviewers. This collection covers the New Testament only. I was kind of hoping to get the Old Testament too but, based on what's out there now, I can wait until James Earls Jones reads the Old Testament
New Testament by James Earl Jones January 25, 2008 Cindy Jeans (San Leandro, CA) 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
What a marvelous narrator! I wish I would have read the other reviews prior to purchase as I too was under the impression that this was the entire Bible, not just the NEW TESTAMENT. I would highly consider letting buyers know that even though it says Deluxe, it is referring to the lovely box it comes in. This is very deceptive. Now I have to spend another $41 to get the entire Bible. Please correct this if you value your feedback.
Wonderful! January 22, 2008 Lesli Summerstay (OH) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is an excellent reading of the King James Version New Testament. Jones reads clearly with excellent pronunciation and makes it easier to listen to and understand. His voice is wonderful to listen to. There is no music played in the background, which is good. The hymns by the Nashville Faith Choir are enjoyable. They sing several of them with a traditional shape-note tone quality. For some this is an acquired taste. But I love shape-note singing.
Great voice, great narration, but..... December 31, 2006 Book & Music Lover (Louisville, Kentucky USA) 9 out of 10 found this review helpful
Mr. Jones has just the right touch, and tone for this beautiful project. I have but one problem with this production. Where is the Old Testament? Otherwise I would have given this production 5 stars.
Awesome reading by James Earl Jones November 9, 2006 M. Anthony (Hillside, NJ USA) 13 out of 14 found this review helpful
Great for companionship while driving or otherwise, Gives you the word and read by a master. My only issue was I wasn't aware it did not include the Old Testament and there was no indication of this prior to purchase.
