The genuine leather cover made of black Meriva leather feels pleasant in the hand. The gilded edges and gold embossing make this Bible, in a handy breviary format, a precious gift. It features a single-column layout, thin Bible print paper, easily readable typography, and a two-color layout using the decorative color red for better clarity. It includes introductions to each biblical book, subheadings, annotations, reference points, and an appendix with a keyword and person index, a timeline with explanations, and two maps. The New Revised Translation is used throughout the German-speaking region and is the official version for liturgy, education, and pastoral care within the Catholic Church.
