Which Bible are you giving as a gift?

A suitable gift Bible suits the recipient: age, reading experience and any preference for a translation come before the color of the cover. When in doubt, ask which Bible someone is already using.

Start with the recipient

For a child, you look at age and reading together. For a young person, explanations about recognizable questions can be pleasant. As an adult, reading experience and intended use are more important than the occasion alone.

Baptism, confession or marriage

A Bible can be a personal gift for a special moment. Check whether the church tradition uses a particular translation and whether the recipient is looking for a complete Bible, family Bible or reading Bible. Do not fill that preference for anyone.

Make it personal

A beautiful cover and handy size can complete the choice. If you want to write something in the front, check whether there is room for it. Order the correct edition on ISBN and check price and delivery time with the seller.
