This review is from: King James Bible Dramatized Cd (Audio CD)
best investment we have made in a long time. I also disagree with the review that it's a poor rendering of the Scripture. Even tho at places the reading does seem to speed up that's just a poor editing job of not leaving enough space between the passages. The main voice is Smooth and Soothing, and the others fit the parts that are read.The Audio is crisp and clean also. Small problems are the Main voice is always a little louder than the various other voices used in the reading, and I'm not really hip on the card-board sleeves that it comes in, buts thats an easy fix. The music, IF you focus on it, is distracting, but so are the sound effects. The point is the Word of God, not the extras. Even with these small nit picks I find it to be a great product, and overall the best investment that we have made in a long time. No store in the area had this item for less than $90, so this is the best deal going. Even with Super Saver Shipping, it got to me in 9 days. 64cds, over 75 hours of audio, I can handle that for a $40 savings! If you like the KJV of the Bible, GET THIS! You will not be sorry.

The First Dramatized KJV and the Best, Jun 9 2004
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: King James Bible Dramatized Cd (Audio CD)
I have done some research and found that this is the first Dramatized KJV ever done. It is excellent and the reviewer who dissed it is wrong. This is narrated with love and the actors and music and sound effects bring the word-for-word KJV literally to life! Buy the CD version and you can go to book and chapter easily...you will enjoy it and be moved by the poetry and Spirit of the KJV.

Great Audio Bible, Oct 28 2004
By Suzanne Hunter "SPotts" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: King James Bible Dramatized Cd (Audio CD)
We purchased our first audio Bible about 2 years ago. Since then, it has become an asset to the whole family. I listen to it as I am retiring for the night and have found that a person still can learn while they sleep! My husband, being an OTR Driver, rarely has enough down time to spend it reading so the CD's are constantly playing for him while he is going down the road. He later can go back and read the Bible and have a better understanding of what he reads. Our 14 year old daughter loves being able to listen to these CD's and reading along with them in her Bible. She too is learning to pronounce the more difficult names that once hampered her in reading the Bible at all. Now, we all 3 have a better understanding of what the Bible is saying and our lives have changed dramatically over the last few months. God has blessed us with this knowledge within the pages of the Bible and now the audio Bible makes it all more personal for us. With having an understanding of what we are reading, we are able to worship with more confidence. We would recommend this set to anyone who wants to get more from their time spent reading the Bible. It is truly worth the price!! We have just ordered our second set and plan to order another soon so we all have our own without having to share since we never know what part of the Bible we may be led to read and it is difficult to read certain books/chapters if they are shared this way. Make this a part of your daily life and you too will see changes come about in how you feel about reading the KJV!
