Love it!

Absolutely love this spoken word. You can really get into this dramatic, faithful reading of God's Holy and precious word. Recommend this absolutely, in fact I'm on my third 👍 listening of this audible Bible.

Dramatic reading with sounds, but complete.

Some of the sound effects and dramatic reading can be distracting. However , the different voices can make it easier to discern the speaker.

Very well read... Story vs. Bible

When listening to this I felt like I was learning to a story rather than the Bible. Very well written and read. The sound effects are great and not over the top. #Audible1

Very Well Done!

The narration is excellent, and there is just enough background music/sounds to embellish but not distract. I only wish it was easier to distinguish the parts when searching, but with such a large book it's understandable. I did find a chapter list for the Audible book download online and use that as a reference to find specific books of the bible. It's a great companion for my morning walks with my dog!

my comments on the book

this Bible seems to be very thorough and fills in a lot of blanks it's got multiple variety of Bible chapters in it and God does make to his X-Men all through the chapters from Moses on special people very interesting then the books of Enoch and a lot of other ones pretty thorough I'm battling sorry

LOVE IT!

I have just recently in the last year decided to read the Bible (I am 54 yrs). I was struggling because of the pronunciation of some of the names/words and wasn't really absorbing the words. This audible book is a game changer for me. The changing of the voices for each character, the subtle background noises so you know where they are and the soft background music brings the Bible to life for me. I put aside time first thing in the morning to sit comfortably with my earphones on and close my eyes and I can almost experience it like I am watching a movie. Some people said that the background noises were 'distracting' but I could not disagree more. You will even recognize some of the celebrity voices. I was afraid it would be mono tone and boring which is more a distraction for me and then my mind wanders....but not with this. I highly recommend this book to everyone of any age.

listened to the while Bible in 3 months

I was able to listen to the Bible and follow the 90-day reading plan that went through the entire Bible Genisis to Revelations. I enjoyed my hourly daily listening time.

New Insights

Hearing the Bible with different characters voiced by different actors including women actors for women's parts was an eye opening experience. I am loving the experience of listening to God's word. So different from reading it and exposing me to new translations as well.
