1. They need to use the "Hooked on Phonics" before selling it.
If it wasn't practically new I bet it wouldn't be "practicall" new.

4. That's funny!
Growing up in Texas, everyone I knew had a coffee table Bible. I just thought the ridiculously low price was funny; I never even thought about how funny the size must seem.

3. That is one big Bible too!
Letters the size of a quarter would be my guess.

5. Maybe he should use his Hooked on Phonics before selling it.
Not a sermon; just a thought. :shrug:
