I was excited to receive review copy of A Reader’s Hebrew and Greek Bible yesterday from the kind folks at Zondervan Academic. This new edition combines both A Reader’s Hebrew Bible and A Reader’s Greek New Testament into a single volume. The binding is fine-grain European black leather. Another nice feature are two marker ribbons, which will allow you to easily keep your place in both testaments. I have previously reviewed both A Reader’s Greek New Testament, 2nd Edition (LINK) and A Reader’s Hebrew Bible (LINK). My forthcoming review of A Reader’s Hebrew and Greek Bible will compare this new combined edition to the previous separate editions.

I was looking forward to this coming out. Now where is Zondervan with my free copy?!?!
Shaun,
Have they changed the font of the Greek? I think this would be extremely convenient but I hated the font of the Greek and was hoping for a change.
Charles,
I’ve been excited about this new combined edition as well. I can’t speak to the status of your free copy, but It is available for a pretty reasonable price from Amazon.
Daniel,
I’ll compare it with The Reader’s Greek New Testament, 2nd Edition and let you know.
Daniel,
I compared the Greek text in John 1 between A Reader’s Hebrew And Greek Bible and A Reader’s Greek New Testament, 2nd Edition. To my eyes, the font appeared to be same. Is there a particular Greek New Testament with a font that you like better?
Three questions (all of which can wait untill your review, if you prefer):
1) How are the maps? Is there a map index?
2) Is there any indication that the Hebrew section has been updated at all? I’ve found some errata in my Reader’s Hebrew Bible.
3) How is the leather?
