Oh you got an actual case/book bag for your Bible?
I don't have one but I've seen them in the Christian book store. I remember buying one for a friend it was purple with sort of quilt stitching, but the only Bible I saw her reading was those cheap pulp paperback ones that churches giving away for free. I don't know if she ever used it.
Some people just chuck their books in their bags and don't even have a separate bag just for books so the pages don't get all smushed, and so you see them take out the their book and the covers are all bent and out of shape and you wonder, if that's how they treat books, how do they treat everything else in life??

They used to be a lot more popular so there was a wider variety of them back then. CBD has less than a page of them now. I thought they were great because you can keep everything together, They all had pockets for your pens and markers and other stuff for your Bible. They were also great for protecting your Bible from falling apart, or if it WAS falling apart, that you can keep all the parts together, lol!

I tried recently to buy a new case for my (old) ipad, as the case I had was plastic/silicone and it was chipping and flaking, but NOBODY sells cases for Ipad 4 anymore.

I had to get them to order one in...still waiting. And I don't even have many books on my ipad, the one bible app I have, I don't even use as I use my actual books.

Am trying to get one that has a bumper, not the cover ones as they are awkward to hold. You see all these people use ipads and iphones that have chipped and cracked screens...and same as books, you wonder how they treat them?!

Did you try looking in Amazon for your case? They might have some. Or Ebay.

I tried Temu
They may have but I'm more for the case not the covers and I need one that is specific to my model, and the specs don't seem to match. It's not a mini Ipad 4 it's the OG Ipad 4/5 which is a bit wider, like 10.3.3 not 9

I can't shop on Amazon (shipping too expensive for my country) and I haven't shopped on Ebay for decades. We have Trademe here, I also looked on there. Maybe will take another look.

gah Ipad boutique has one but they in Australia on ebay and they do not post to NZ.

Ok now I'm tired of looking at computer screens in a fruitless search for ipad case/covers.
 
I guess I have to just wait for my order at the shop to come in, I did buy one but it was the wrong size, so they offered to order one for me.

I thought maybe the older $2 shops may have them but when I went there the ones they had were flip cover ones with no camera holes, and metal brackets secured by elastics.

I didn't like the magnet cover ones they originally sold for ipads. I just thought they weren't very user friendly and they couldn't even stand up an ipad.

Anyway...

That's why I don't read the Bible on an ipad, and the phone is too small. As well got all the other stuff need to use on it. Am not a kindle or e-book reader either.
 
All other Bibles are...fake?

Never seen a bible that had THREE columns, most have only two. Oh and this ones actually in Hebrew! Bit heavy to carry though.

Well this one is original..but why does the butterfly have to be pink? I've never seen a pink butterfly. I like blue or orange and black ones

Indeed, our fellowship is with the Father and His Son, Yeshua the Messiah. 4.These things we write so our joy may be full.
