I absolutely love getting to review Bibles. There is something about looking at different versions of the Bible and cross-referencing information from various translations that I just love.  This particular Bible is not my typical translation, however, I absolutely love the wealth of information within its pages, not to mention the gorgeous cover!

This study Bible has full color maps, articles, and culture notes all throughout.

Every book has a ton of information about who wrote it, where the stories took place, how the book is structured, how it relates back to Christ, and so much more. Within each book there are an incredible amount of footnotes for reference. Most pages have about a third of each page with footnotes and verses that are cross referenced. This would be a tremendous tool for anyone who is serious about studying the Bible. I know I like to keep numerous versions on hand, along with online versions. At the end of the Bible, along with the typical subject index and glossary, there are several other references. The miracles of Jesus, prayers of the Bible, messianic prophecies, and parables of Jesus are just a few of the extra sections.

I hope that this new year has brought a renewed desire to dig into scripture! That is definitely one of my goals this year.
