GOD'S WORD Translation (GW) accurately translates the meaning of the original texts into clear, everyday language. Readable and reliable, GW is living, active, and life-changing. It is ideally suited for devotional reading, in-depth study, memorization, discipleship, preaching, teaching, and worship.

The thinline edition features a special format. Books that are primarily prose are presented in two columns to create shorter, easier-to-read lines, while books that are primarily poetry are single-column to preserve parallelism, a key element of Hebrew poetry.

The thinline edition also offers these great features:

• Convenient, portable size
• Daily reading plan
• Fast Track reading plan
• Black-letter text
• Ribbon marker
• Presentation page
• Translation and textual notes
• Dictionary/Concordance
• The Teachings of Jesus index
