I currently have both an Ignatius Bible and a NABRE. I love the Ignatius Bible, and I also enjoy reading the NABRE, as I don’t feel the translation is nearly as bad as some make it out to be.
However, I have one issue with my particular version of the NABRE: it is the red paperback version, and the print is very small. The Ignatius print is about 9.0-9.5, so it is fairly readable. The NAB, if I had to guess, might be 6 or so. It may be larger, but the paper is also quite darker than the Ignatius paper, so this may account for increase in difficulty when reading the NAB.
I would like recommendations for the most recent published NABRE, with decently large font (9+), preferably in paperback, and not so huge that it will crush my arm while holding it and reading (this would be easier without all the darn notes published in it, but oh well). It would be awesome if it didn’t have goofy pictures on the cover, like flowers and meadows and sunshine and puppies and stuff. Don’t get me wrong; I don’t hate sunshine and puppies. I would just rather have a plain Bible cover. Thanks!
