Description
The Cameo Bible is one of the classic Cambridge editions of the King James Bible, dating from the 1920s. The Bible text was set in an attractive historic typeface, Petit Medieval Clarendon, and is printed large enough to be clear and easy to read while small enough to result in a compact Bible. The Bible has pronunciation marks for difficult words and phrases, full cross- references, a concordance and maps. Unavailable for a while, the Cameo Reference Edition was recently re-issued in response to continued consumer interest, in a new range of binding styles. The Bible comes with a concordance and 15 color maps. The text has pronunciation marks for names and the words of Christ on earth are printed in red. This edition includes the Apocrypha. It is one of the very few current editions of the King James Version so to do. It is printed on India paper art-gilt edges and is bound in black calfskin leather. Read more

I want to start by saying this one amazing bible and I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a well-made, high quality bible that preserves the word of the most high, Yahawah (God). For this review, I will also compare this King James Version (KJV) Cameo bible to the 1611 KJV for two reasons: 1) I only purchase, read, and own 1611 KJV bibles and 2) Every other translation that is not KJV removes & replaces words, removes parts of verses, or omits entire verses. This is not only blasphemy but is strictly forbidden by the most high (See Proverbs 30: 5-6, Revelation 22: 18-19). Construction: This KJV Cameo is very well made and feels nice when handled. It is made out of calfskin leather, which is a very durable and a high quality leather to own and use. It has more of a matte finish, not being glossy, but slightly more firm than other calfskin books. Content: The KJV Cameo preserves the words of the most high. As stated in the listing, this bible contains the Old Testament, Apocrypha, New Testament, a concordance, maps, cross references, two ribbon markers, and red letter text, which signifies Yahawashi (Jesus) is speaking. One of the main reasons I chose this specific edition is due to its inclusion of the Apocrypha, which is rare for a standard KJB bible; also for the red letter text. I am pleased to have both in one book! Size: This KJV Cameo is compact and portable. Its measurements are 7.5 x 5 x 1.5 inches (19.05 x 12.7 x 3.81 cm). Comparison to the 1611 KJV: • The table of contents for the KJV Cameo lists the page numbers each book begins on, while the 1611 KJV lists the number of chapters in each book (See photos). • The KJV Cameo numbers each page at the bottom while the 1611 KJV does not. • The font size for the KJV Cameo and the 1611 KJV are the same, that being 8pt. The difference is that the KJV Cameo uses Petit Medieval Clarendon Style font, while the 1611 KJV uses semi-modern Roman Style font. Both are equally easy to read in my opinion. • The KJV Cameo is relatively smaller than your standard 1611 KJV bible, about the size of your hand or even a large cell phone (E.g., Samsung Galaxy Note 9, iPhone 11 Pro Max). • The KJV Cameo does not contain the history of the bible translations but does have the translators notes by King James. • The KJV Cameo does not provide a brief summary before each chapter while the 1611 KJV does. • The KJV Cameo references for each chapter are centered instead of towards the outside, as is with the 1611 KJV. • The KJV Cameo corrects the misspelling of certain words within the 1611 KJV, however the words are exactly the same. Nothing was removed or replaced from the original text. Overall I am blessed to have found this bible and would recommend to anyone looking for a solid bible that covers all the bases.

I have had this little gem on my wish list for a very long time. I deleted it and placed back on my wish list so many times its laughable. But just recently I finally broke down and bought it. Why? Well, its the King James Bible with the Apocrypha from Cambridge Press that's why. I love the King James Bible and I have a running collection of buying the King James Bible in as many formats as possible. I love the way its sounds, I love the way it reads, I love the way its translated, I just simply love it. Now anybody who has followed me in my reviews here on Amazon knows that my main, number one and favorite English Bible is the REVISED STANDARD VERSION WITH THE EXPANDED APOCRYPHA (1977 Ed.). However, I started on the King James Bible. Now I was not on the King James Version that long because as a Greek Orthodox Christian growing up in the early to mid 80's the RSV with Expanded Apocrypha was our unofficial OFFICIAL English Bible. The RSV was in all our services, liturgical readings, etc. However, our Russian Orthodox brothers and sisters over in the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia were devoted to the King James Version of the Bible with the Apocrypha in their liturgical and biblical readings, services, etc., and still are to this day. Now why is that? Well according to some well in the know ROCOR people its because the Russian Orthodox Council in Moscow in 1917 actually recommended the use of the King James Version of the Bible among the Russian Orthodox faithful in the English-Speaking part of the world. At the time there really weren't any other English versions of the Holy Bible so it seemed like a logical choice at the time. However, that recommendation stuck even when better English Bible versions came out, and has stuck to this day. In ROCOR the King James Bible is almost, ALMOST, treated like the Septuagint (i.e. a divinely inspired translation). So its not technically KJV Onlyism, but is close. In any event, because such a large part of the English-Speaking part of the Orthodox Church uses and admires the KJV of the Bible I bought it and now use it from time to time. The King James Version with the Apocrypha it still to this day a very well translated and very accurate English translation of the Biblical texts it was based on (OT - The Second Rabbinic Bible, Apocrypha The Septuagint of Codex Vaticanus and NT the Textus Receptus of the Greek New testament) with the various other translation diligently compared. The English is antiquated, but not impossible to learn and being that most King James Bible are based on the Oxford edition of 1769, thus updated with modern type face and mostly modern punctuation, one can still read, understand and enjoy the King James Bible with only a 200 word or so expansion of one's vocabulary to fully understand the KJV of the Bible. Further, although I love the King James Bible's flow of language and turn of phrase I am still committed to modern biblical scholarship and rigor, especially as we examine the Dead Sea Scrolls and other ancient Biblical Manuscripts of the Old Testament and the New Testament to help us better understand and "Re-Create" the Old and New Testament texts. As much as I love to read, study and meditate upon the Septuagint (Greek Old Testament Translation) I know that today we have far better and more reliable biblical texts than the Septuagint, Vulgate, and even the Second Great Rabbinic Hebrew Bible for the Old Testament and the Textus Receptus New Testament. With that said, I would still buy, use and enjoy the King James Bible for its beauty and for its blessed devotion to the traditional understanding of certain biblical passages. In that the King James Version is deeply committed to not only translating the Biblical Texts, but translating them in such a way as to reflect the traditional understanding of certain passages pursuant to the mind and understanding of the early Christian Church Fathers. (Reade the preface to the 1611 edition the translators says this very explicitly). Its because of this translating "perspective" that it is still used and honored by many an English-Speaking Christian, even Orthodox Christian. As far as the text itself is concerned I should warn the King James Only people who are devoted to the so-called PCE (Pure Cambridge Edition) version of the King James Bible. This is NOT it! This does not bother me any, but the PCE people need to know just in case they end up buying this version of the King James Bible and they later discover that it does NOT conform to the Pure Cambridge Edition of the King James Bible. Also, their are 5 places in the New Testament that the King James Version of the Bible used the English word "Propitiation" for the Greek word ἱλαστήριον. The Revised Standard Version uses, IMHO, the better word "Expiation." Propitiation means appeasing the wrath of a vengeful god while expiation just means removing one's sin or cleansing one from sin. So the King James Version is not perfect and the bias of its translators comes through, but for the most part these things can be compensated for and people, especially Orthodox People, can still use the King James Bible if they so prefer. So still beautiful, still wonderful to read and hear and still declaring the word of God after 400 years. Not bad, not bad at all. Pick up this little gem and use it. You won't regret it. PS: However, if you want to get the best of the best of English Bibles then follow this link and get this bible ASAP! Here is the link:http://www.amazon.com/dp/019528335X/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pd_S_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=O33YJ2FMBAR5&coliid=I1ZYBLVI28WXEG. Get it while its still here because its getting harder and harder to find these days, and this English Bible, the RSV w/Expanded Apocrypha, is still hands down the best English translation of the Holy Bible and based upon very good and accurate Biblical Texts and Manuscripts. Heck, get both the KJV and the RSV and you are good to go. Take care.
