Is it possible to give a Bible for a birthday or any other holiday? Dedicatory inscription and wishes on a book as a gift. What words to sign the Bible with.

Each of us sincerely wants to make a gift for a loved one unforgettable, bringing only positive emotions. After looking through the many possible options, some people ask the question: “Is it possible to give a Bible?”

• It is better to give a Bible to someone in whose faith you are absolutely sure. Otherwise, the gift may be misinterpreted or leave the recipient indifferent.
• If the birthday person is a child, try to choose the brightest book, with colorful illustrations and large font. It will be interesting for your child to study the parables of the Old and New Testaments on their own. In addition, it is worth paying attention to the presentation of the text, which should be understandable to a child audience.
• The donated book of Holy Scripture must be new and not contain any marks, including those made by the donor’s hand.
• For a traveler or a person whose life is closely connected with travel, a pocket edition of the Bible will be a useful gift that serves as a talisman. A book of this format is convenient to take on the road, as it takes up minimal space.

Signs

Despite the fact that the church has an extremely negative attitude towards all superstitions, there are several signs associated with the Holy Book. For example, one of them categorically prohibits making dedicatory inscriptions both on the Bible itself and on all books on religious subjects. Also, you should not write on icons and holy images.

Another belief states that the publication of sacred texts should never be purchased for money. This opinion is quite absurd and really refers to empty superstitions, because at all times the Bible was purchased in a shop at the temple, paying money for it.

The Bible is not just a book, it is a kind of holy grail for all believers, which contains wise words that can protect and save the human soul.

The Bible is rightfully considered the starting point for all believers, from where they can gain the necessary knowledge about the structure of everything around them.

This religion is one of the most widespread of all world teachings and preaches only love and care for neighbors.

For a purely religious person, a gift such as the Bible is perfect. After this article, you will certainly agree that this is truly a universal gift.

He has no lectures, no complaints, you won’t feel guilty with him if you forget about him, and most importantly, you won’t get into trouble with him, but he will definitely bring benefits. I give it to you with the warmest wishes of happiness, love and success.

• When signing a book, in addition to your wishes, you can include parting words, holiday congratulations (if the gift is dedicated to any holiday), words of gratitude, and something that will be interesting to read many years later.
• You can use texts from the collection not only to sign the book, but also as verbal accompaniment when giving a gift.
• At the end of each inscription it is customary to put a date and a signature. The date may be shortened, leaving only the month and year of the gift, or only the year. However, if the gift was made on a birthday, then the date is not shortened, it is written in full (day, month, year of delivery).
• When signing a book by hand, try to format the text legibly (preferably in block letters)... It will be a shame if the memorable text turns out to be unreadable for the person to whom it is addressed.
• When creating your own text, use it, it will help you choose the appropriate description specifically for your book.
• If you don't find what you need on this page, use the collection.
• If you sign a gift for a manager (boss), you must maintain subordination and avoid familiarity. Address yourself as “you” and do not use the word “beloved”, replacing it with “respected”. Avoid excessive flattery.
• Before writing a message on a book, double-check and make sure that the text is not ambiguous for a specific person.

A book has always been considered a good gift, especially if it is an interesting book, given to a person who loves books and knows a lot about them.

A colorful book for a child is especially valuable as a gift; this gift will bring a lot of impressions, perhaps it will become a favorite book and determine the interests of the child, as has happened more than once.

I have already written in success stories how books turned the minds of fully grown, accomplished people upside down and radically changed their lives.

One of these stories, about my friend, mentor, a very good person, tells how one day a book about “vision” changed his fate and made him what he has become now, successful, rich and happy.

So those who think that a book is not a gift are laughing in vain! The main thing is to choose the right book, and not just “just something to give.”

It’s funny to give a cookbook to a football fan, or even to a woman who really hates “cooking.”

One of my friends doesn’t like to cook at all, but her husband does an excellent job with this task.

But choosing the right book is half the battle; you need to know how to sign a book as a gift. This is what we will talk about today.

How to sign a book as a gift signature sample

According to the rules of etiquette, only its author has the right to sign a book. Signing someone else's book is bad form.

You will say that a postcard may get lost, a book without a signature will become an ordinary book, and soon you will forget where it came from and who gave it.

Of course, you are right, so we will do the following: glue a signed card with wishes onto a small drop of glue. The book is clean, the reminder will not be lost.

You need to sign the wish neatly, evenly, beautifully. If your handwriting is not very good, ask one of your friends or relatives to do it.

But, even with a “clumsy” handwriting, you can write a good text from the heart. You can lightly line the sheet so that the lines don’t jump on top of each other.

We have come to the question of how to write a congratulation. Prepare a pen (or feather) with blue or black ink, make sure that it writes easily, does not smear, does not flow, but does not make gaps. In a word, to write “like clockwork.”

How to sign a book as a gift, a sample for a gift to friends, girlfriends

First of all, let's look at how to sign books as gifts for friends. The text of the congratulation should take into account the degree of closeness with the person to whom the book is given.

It is advisable to connect the wishes with the theme of the book. The text should begin with the name of the person to whom the gift is given, in honor of what the gift was made; at the end of the wishes, do not forget to indicate the date and put your signature.

By choosing this particular book, you somehow connected it with the person you decided to congratulate; try to express this relationship in words.

Sample:

Dear (Beloved) Tatyana, I congratulate you on International Women’s Day on March 8, I give you a collection of delicious oriental dishes, with the hope that you will invite me to taste them.

Your friend Ilya, (date and signature).

Write from the heart what you want to wish for the person, so that the words come from the heart. You can write a congratulation in verse, borrow aphorisms of famous people.

Show originality, maybe spice it up with a little humor, but without sarcasm or banter. A good book as a gift is nice, and when an original signature is attached to the book, it’s doubly nice!

Your signature shows that this gift is from the heart, that you paid special attention and effort. If you find it difficult to find words, or you are not sure how the congratulations will be received, then you can get by by indicating to whom, from whom, in honor of what, and the date.

Or you can write a short letter containing parting words, wishes, instructions, or just something that will be read with interest now, or many years from now.

Such a message will return to the moment when the gift was made. Your grandchildren will read it with interest when the book falls into their hands.

Expressions not recommended in book captions

There are expressions that it is advisable not to write when making a gift. Many are too banal and hackneyed, others have a “double meaning”.

The expression “for a long memory” is more appropriate as a gravestone inscription than for congratulations. And the “originality” of this “text” will not cause delight.

The expression “from the entire team, and from me personally” speaks of the excessive “modesty” of the donor. Leave the first part of the message, and give a separate gift from yourself.

You cannot make any hints about age, physical disabilities or other characteristics. For example, “my sweet bun (crumpet, doughnut, pie, etc.)”, “to my favorite botanist”, “despite the fact that you are already over..., you are still dear to me” and other “pearls”.

If the book is given in honor of a holiday not related to professional activities, then you should not sign it “for the best teacher (driver, plumber, gynecologist).”

When giving a book to a woman close to you, there is no need to list her statuses as “beloved wife, cook, mother.” If you end the message with the words “from your husband and children,” you will get a complete epitaph on the monument.

Congratulations for the boss

Congratulations for the boss should be written in compliance with the chain of command. You need to address yourself, avoid familiarity and excessive flattery. The expression, “For the beloved boss,” sounds ambiguous, replace the word “favorite” with “respected” (fair, best, and so on).

Congratulations for children

When signing a book for children, express your hope that thanks to the gift, he will learn a lot of interesting things and discover new horizons for himself.

It is better for the child to choose a poetic congratulation, since in general, children like poetry more than prose.
