Answer
Greetings, Ben.
If you are going to get a Bible, I suggest you get a very good one, to last a lifetime.

I have bought several "Thompson Chain Reference" Bibles, and believe them to be among the very best made. The best edition is found on this web page (be sure that there is no space after the ? in this URL when you enter it in your web browser):
http://www.christianbook.com/Christian/Books/product?item_no=7071015&netp_id=121...

Less expensive editions of this bible, with different qualites of binding can be seen on this web page (again, be sure there is no space after the ? and before the + in this URL):
http://www.christianbook.com/Christian/Books/easy_find?Ntk=keywords&Ntt=KJV+Thom...

I have no relationship with Christain Book Distributors, other than as a customer.  They have very good prices and good products, so I recommend them. Of course you can do a search on the keywords "Thompson Chain Reference."

The first four chapters of the Bible are Genesis, chapter 1, chapter 2, chapter 3, and chapter 4. The first five "books" in the Bible are, in order, Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. These are the books written by Moses, and this section of the Bible is called "The Pentateuch."  It is often referred to in other parts of the Bible as "The Law" and "The Law of Moses."

I hope this helps you.

Yours for Truth,

CR
