To read from the same bible as your grandfather, father, and ancestors read from is a way to carry on a family tradition of God’s wisdom. If one thing can be stressed about Christianity, it is the importance of introducing God’s word to younger generations, and carrying on religious family traditions—I can still remember when my dad passed on his Vulgate bible to me.  Inheriting a bible from past generations teaches not only the value of family, but develops a connection between the reader and family members who may have passed on. Starting a bible inheritance tradition is not all that difficult; mostly it involves finding a bible that will last several decades despite use.

You should start by looking for a leather bible, as these covers will protect the pages inside from being damaged. You’ll want to look for a bible with sturdy pages as well; some bibles have pages made of thin parchment that are partial to rips and tears. Once you’ve found your bible, write your name in it, and when you’re ready to pass it on to another generation, they will know where it came from.
