Critic reviews

"Eric Martin narrates the holy Bible from the heart, and with full respect for the contextual settings of the words he reads. He is a passionate reader, and his conviction cannot but impact the listener. His command of the poetic language of the King James Bible brings out its incredible richness, revealing aspects of its truth which would otherwise be lost. I can therefore fully endorse this excellent narration, and encourage others to benefit from listening to it." (Bishop Timothy J. Walker, Fort Worth, Texas)

Very Clear Diction

What made the experience of listening to The King James Audio Bible the most enjoyable?

Every word is clearly, meticulously pronounced, including every difficult Bible name.

What did you like best about this story?

The Bible tends to be difficult to understand because of the old King James English. Because of this it tends to be difficult to read. In audio book form I'm finding it is much easier to follow and understand.

Which character – as performed by Eric Martin – was your favorite?

Some of the reviewers are critical of Eric Martin's reading performance. Remember, he is reading this as an audiobook, not commenting on it or dramatizing it as as clergymen often do. Eric Martin is speaking every word of the Bible as succinctly as possible. After listening to it a while I really do agree with this sort of neutral approach.

Any additional comments?

Face it -- few people will go to the effort of reading the Bible cover-to-cover as they would other types of books. This audiobook version of the Bible is a tremendous value and I wish I would have thought of purchasing it long ago. No matter how many sermons you've sat through, no matter how many verses you've turned to, if you listen to the Bible in this audiobook form you will likely find yourself quite surprised as I have by the actual content of this book. Don't be put off by the neutral reading style -- the Bible stories themselves are the true content.

Let The Word of God Light Your Way

If you could sum up The King James Audio Bible in three words, what would they be?

Articulate, Refreshing, and Straight-up with God's Blessings Coming Straight-down to You.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The King James Audio Bible?

When God told Sarah she was going to have a baby, and Sarah laughed, (Sarah being 90 years old and Abraham 100 years old), like God can't do it --and God can. I am 62 years old, my body feels like a 20 year old. God Can Do it!

Which scene was your favorite?

When Jesus said to His Father (God), "Father forgive them, for they know not what they do.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, definitely!

Any additional comments?

God is good all the time, and all the time God is good!

Excellent resource for scriptural memorization!

The gospel is brought to life by the animated narration. The words are pronounced clearly with emphasis where needed.
