Bible Paper’s Best Friend…
I love to write in my Bible. It’s so hilited and written in that certain pages look like just about every color of the rainbow. (My wife prefers a yellow hiliter and so we call her Bible the “sunshine Bible”. Taken outdoors it will blind you when opened. <grin>)
I’ve spent quite some time finding the best pens and hiliters to use to mark and take notes in my Scriptures. The best hiliters are definitely the Bic Brite Liner Z4’s. They don’t bleed through and don’t fade like many others.
But oh what I ran across yesterday at Staples. I happened to go down the pen isle and what did my wandering eyes see… a new Sharpie Pen. In fact, it’s called the “Sharpie Pen” and it touted not to bleed through almost all papers. So I grabbed a package and couldn’t wait to try it out in my Bible.
I am impressed! This is one great pen and even on some of my more worn pages it truly does not bleed through the pages - even the thin pages of most Bibles. So if you’re one who loves to write in your Bible get one of the new Sharpie Pens!

I have always just kept a box of Crayola Colored Pencils handy. They don’t bleed through and enable me to do color-coded highlighting when studying a book. For example, I will pick a particular color to highlight the same key Hebrew or Greek word every time it appears in as book. Or I will highlight a particular phrase or concept.
The main reason I had resorted to such an approach is that I never found a highlighter that would bleed through. I will have to give this Sharpie Pen a try, but I wonder if there will be enough variety of colors to let me keep my color-coded highlighting approach. I will have to take a look next time I am at the office supply store.
Thanks for the heads up. And thanks for a great blog!
