The pages are sewn together so they stay in your Bible, even after decades of use. Most all publishers glue their books when binding. That's why their Bibles won't stay open to the page you've turned to. Open any Thompson® and it lays open flat, whether you turn to page 1 or 2,400.

There is nothing else like the feel of the super-clean paper of a Thompson®. When you drag your fingers down a page you'll hear a faint squeaking sound. The sensation in your fingers is hard to describe, but it's almost like your Thompson® is touching you back. As you personalize your Thompson® with your own notes and discoveries, the paper gets softer and richer to touch. Flip through the pages of your Thompson® you'll love the unique sound this paper makes. It's like a gentle breeze brushing the leaves of a mighty oak.
