Product Description
The star of GREAT WHITE HOPE, STAR WARS, and THE LION KING reads the complete King James Version of the New Testament in a steady, powerful style that only someone with Jones's vocal talents can muster. His performance is beautiful; he reads the entire work in a gentle tone that is so compelling that the listener will find it hard to switch off. Soft piano music with orchestral accompaniment plays in the background like church incense, filling the air with a subtle, tranquil musical aroma. This is a far cry from Jones's Darth Vader. A truly inspiring production. S.E.S.

 The New Testament September 30, 2008
I am on the road a lot and it benefits me greatly to listen to the New Testament while driving. The soothing voice reading and the background of classical Christian hymns uplifts my spirit and keeps my mind on what is really important, so I do not get angry at other drivers. That is a good thing!!

I bought this to listen to while driving. I have enjoyed it. However,there was one problem. I received two copies of CD #11 and no CD#12. James Earl Jones does a great job, but I could have done without some of the music.

audio Bible KJV May 28, 2008
I like it. I grew up w/ the King James Version. There is music in the background. They are hymns done very quietly and are not obtrusive, but there are only about 10-15 of them. If you like all the hymns you'd be fine w/ it. I was not expecting the music and thought at first I would not like it, but the hymns seem to have been selected for specific texts so I am now glad they are included. I have only found 2 'voiceos' (similar to 'typos'). Out of the whole New Testament, I guess we can allow him 2 wrong words.
