    The paper is thin but not too much so that you are afraid to touch it. The translation by Filos is essentially a rendering of Vamvas' work in the vernacular and is pleasant to read without losing the beauty and validity of Vamvas' work. It contains many maps, tables, and diagrams with place names, calendars, monetary values, measurements and weights, dates of events, kings and prophets, etc., which no other Greek edition of the Bible has. The negatives are that the references are not on the same page but separately by chapter at the end of the book. It also does not have enough comments compared to the edition of the Bible Society. It could have a smaller font size to have a larger margin on the pages and to hold it more conveniently when reading. This would also make the volume of the book smaller, which would also facilitate reading.
