Chocolate brown cowhide Interleaved Bible, Journaling Edition with two ribbons in a rugged leather style

Introducing the Interleaved Bible, Journal Edition – the ultimate scripture journaling experience. Patterned after the Bible that Jonathan Edwards, the 18th-century preacher and theologian, used to record more than 5,000 notes about God’s Word, this Bible features a full, blank page next to every page of Bible text.  It allows you to record study notes, prayers, observations from the Bible, sermon notes, and the story of your spiritual growth. 

This exquisite Leather Bible combines rugged elegance with functionality, featuring a premium dark brown cowhide leather in a rugged style. This oil-tanned leather has an attractive grain that provides great character, and the oil tanning process adds toughness and durability.  It’s more than just a leather Bible; it’s a testament to outstanding craftsmanship, featuring textured ivory end sheets, and two spice gold ribbons.  

WHY THE RUGGED LEATHER BIBLE? 

This Bible style tells a story about the one carrying it; they may have a few rough edges, but they are strong, resilient, durable, and carry inside the most valuable possession one could own: God’s very words. Carry around your own rugged leather copy of God’s Word—full of notes, highlights, markings, and all—in this beautiful binding style.

This Interleaved Bible comes in either the New King James Version (NKJV) or English Standard Version (ESV).  The NKJV remains a bestselling modern “word-for-word” translation. It balances the literary beauty and familiarity of the King James tradition with an extraordinary commitment to preserving the grammar and structure of the underlying biblical languages. And while the NKJV translators relied on the traditional Greek, Hebrew, and Aramaic text used for the 1611 KJV, the comprehensive translator notes offer important insights about the latest developments in biblical manuscript studies. The result is a Bible translation that is both beautiful and uncompromising—perfect for serious study, devotional use, and reading aloud.  The ESV is a modern translation that combines word-for-word precision and accuracy with literary excellence, beauty, and readability.

  • 6.5″ x 9.25″

  • Double-column format

ABOUT US

Welcome to the Schaeffner Co. collection, where every piece tells a story of faith and craftsmanship. Our custom, hand-rebound Bibles have been designed to fulfill our mission of preserving God’s Word for future generations.

OUR BIBLE PICTURES

We offer many different Bible editions in several different designs, but we haven’t made every design for every Bible edition we sell (yet!).  This means the pictures we display are meant to highlight the custom handcrafted cover rather than the text pages of the Bible (aka the text block) itself.  The Bible edition that we’ve crafted the cover for may be different than the Bible edition we’re selling, with different page gilding, thumb-indexing tabs, size, thickness, or other features.  As often as we can, we use pictures from Bibles editions with similar features to the Bible editions we’re listing.

Each of our leather Bibles is a work of art, meticulously handcrafted from start to finish. We specialize in sourcing the finest full-grain leather and undertake a careful process of Bible rebinding.  Our engraved Bibles and custom Bible covers are perfect for those who seek a personal touch in their spiritual journey. Dive into our collection and find the perfect custom leather Bible that speaks to you.  Every Bible receives individual attention to every detail, from the selection of the finest leathers to the precision of each cut to the superior quality of the finished product. We back every Bible with our Lifetime Guarantee, ensuring its durability and longevity for years to come!
