Written By J. MARK BERTRAND

Since I shared the NLT Study Bible video yesterday, I figured I should also mention Rick Mansfield's review of the edition:NLT Study Bible: Hands-On Review [UPDATED] Also, check out: Rise of the New Living Translation. Rick also has the goods on the new leather-bound edition of the TNIV Reference Bible: Preview: TNIV Reference Bible, Renaissance Leather Edition (with photos) [UPDATED] If the photos are anything to judge by, it looks good -- and it's great to see Zondervan putting out a quality leather-bound Bible. According to Rick, it's a case-constructed cowhide cover, and hence quite flexible.
