Summary: Outstanding Study Bible
Review: This study Bible is outstanding. I've searched extensively for a great Study Bible, and this is the best one I've found. Where many Bibles can seem intimidating, this one is very inviting, and I often find it difficult to put it down. I never knew where to start when thinking about studying Scripture or where to find the passages I needed. This all changed with this Bible.The text is very well presented with all verse numbers out to the side. Each verse starts fresh on a new line which makes finding the verses very easy. I do not like Bibles with the verse numbers buried in the text. Since this Bible is in the New King James Version translation (which is very widely accepted), you can be confident in the accuracy of the Scripture. There are many study guides throughout the Scripture that explain difficult, important, and otherwise key verses. The best part about these study guides is the way they refer the reader to other verses in Scripture that speak to similar issues. You can have your own study of a topic by following these references. Each book of the Bible has an introduction about when it was written, who wrote it, why it was written, and a summary of its contents. This version also does an excellent job of defining the Hebrew or Greek origins of common English words used in the faith. There are also several Bible studies in the front of the book that are excellent. I've looked a long time for great study Bibles to give to friends, family, and new believers. This one is by far the best one I've found. Mine is tattered, but I don't think I would ever give it up.
