This study Bible teaches a false doctrine of salvation. On page 2502 it conspicuously omits Jesus’ command to believe and be baptized to be saved, Mark 16:15-16. Do you believe baptism is necessary to be saved as Jesus plainly taught in those passages?
@@jayandrew87which study bible would you recommend me, and why? I'm thinking either an esv or an nasb
@@GodSeekerElijah I can’t endorse any study bibles without reservation because although they are packed with great information they have the potential to mislead due to the inherent theological bias. A topical chain reference bible or a plain reference bible avoids this while still providing lots of extra info. I’d recommend a Thompson chain reference which is available in those translations but the NKJV uses a historically sounder text base. So my recommendation is a NKJV Thompson chain reference!
@@jayandrew87 Thanks for the recommendation. I got a nasb Zondervan study bible, it's the same company as the one you recommended. I like the footnotes, I do see why people like the references as opposed to the notes.
Thanks!
@jayandrew87 it's in mine so I don't really know what you're talking about
Currently using this as my main Bible through seminary, and the ESV Interleaved with the leather strap for my heavy note taking. Absolute work horse. Love it!

If you are a true believer in God and in His word, study the wrongs in this book (ESV). Don't be fooled. If you are honest you will find the following:
1. It defies the deity of Christ.
2. It changes salvation from grace to works
3. It blasphemes' Jesus Christ
4. It changes prophecy
5. It defies the virgin birth
6. If that is not enough there's so much more...
7. Does away with dispensational teaching
8. It does away with "rightly dividing" the word of God. God's method of study only found in the KJB.
Use the only English bible that has the words of God - the KJB. Yes, I have scripture proof of each claim I made here.
Please never stop reviewing Bibles love your Bible reviews it's one of the first things I saw on your channel 😁
wish he would review a decent bible though such as the Nelson KJV study bible...
This is a decent Bible. More than decent. @@jeffcarlson3269
Thank you for your helpful review. I just ordered this today on sale. I can’t wait to see it in person and study from it regularly.
Pastor Matt, I would never pass an ordination exam. I don't have the memory capability to outline a book of the Bible on demand. The Lord knew what he was doing when he led me to join the Army instead😁. Great review.
Thank you for this Review. I have this ESV Study Bible, but have yet to really dive into it as I have so many other fabulous Study Bibles. You've pointed out some of the great Features of the ESV Study Bible including the various cover options. I suppose the Large Print Version of this Study Bible must weigh a ton! Have a great year!
Best, and most comprehensive review I have seen of this Bible. Thanks for making this video!

Thank you so much for the review and your thoughts on it’s contents. Really appreciate it as I continue looking for the next resource to add to my ever growing collection as I walk with God. I pray God continues to bless you with growing knowledge so you can continue spreading the word while teaching others.
Great review! I don't like the ESV as much as other translations, but I saw your title about this being the best study Bible ever and my interest was piqued! I'm still not sold, but that's not for lack of features of the book itself nor because of a subpar review. I'm glad you and so many others have found a favorite study Bible that they love and use regularly.
Great Review!
I share your love for the ESV. Another great feature is the internal maps in the text e.g. Abram travels to Canaan. However the text in the notes is small and this is an issue when you get older. There is a large print version which I purchased, but the internal maps and illustrations are no longer in color. I would gladly had paid a little more to have kept the color. It makes such a difference!
I’m an owner of the older ESV Study Bible from 2008 (I think). The 7 pt text of the notes is too small for my eyes, now. I’m thinking of getting the Large-Print edition to rectify that. I wish they made a premium version with buffalo leather and spine hubs.

@@PneumaticTube you will sacrifice.. the color interior maps with the Large print.. and the large prints are double column text.NOT single column ....but they are nice... if those 2 features do not matter to you.... go for it...

This is my every day bible, I have the personal size that I bring to church every sunday and it is my absolute favorite to read, study, and highlight in.
Same here!!
I have one and I love it.
I love this translation! I use it for study. I still preach from the KJV.
My personal favorites (not necessarily in this order) are the ESV Study Bible, the Reformation Study Bible, the MacArthur Study Bible (no, I am not Dispensational and know well how to sift through that aspect of his theology), and the Reformation Heritage Study Bible by Beeke, etc.
I Love This Study Bible is Amazing and Bueatiful ❤️
I have this exact bible and I love it. The way the cowhide feels is amazing and obviously the contents are as well. I’ve also got the digital version of the ESV study bible and it’s my go to for studying. Their new commentary series is also solid. I have a buffalo bound large print personal size for bedside/church and it is also very nice, paste down edition.
Yeah, the "cowhide" is the first thing I look for in a bible. NOT

I just picked up the Reformation study Bible student edition I hope it's good i still have to get me the ESV study Bible though
Back when I was in seminary, I remember Dr.James Anderson noting that carrying an ESV study Bible is not advisable on the Sabbath. ;)
Interesting, ... if I may ask why do you think he said that?
@@e.t.h.559 it was a joke as it's huge.
😆😆😆
@@LittleLouieLagazza Glad somebody finally found it funny. That Bible is like 10 pounds.
😂
“It couldn’t possibly be glued as big as this Bible is” and I’ll present to you the NLT Illustrated Study Bible 😅
Thank you for your excellent review of the ESV Study Bible. It has been a favorite of mine for years.
Correction for 20:50 - Regarding the articles and essays in the back, newer printings of the ESV Study Bible Personal Size do indeed have this content in the back. Crossway started including it once they ceased including free online access to the Study Bible notes and went to a subscription model. But if you buy a new Personal Size ESVSB today, those notes are included. The new Personal Size also has the maps, but they are on Bible Paper, not the glossy stock.
I have both the ESV Study Bible and the Reformation Study Bible. I like the articles and book introductions in the RSB along with its inclusion of historic creeds and confessions, but I'd be lying if I said I used it much. There's nothing at all wrong with it, but I always seem to get more useful information out of the ESV SB. Presentation-wise, the ESV SB is also cleaner and more enjoyable to read for longer periods.
@@AW-dg6zf I have the regular size ESV Study Bible and it's perfectly readable. I ended up donating my Reformation Study Bible to my church's library so that anyone could use it. To be honest, I don't think I've touched any study Bible in months, but I still have the ESV SB, just in case.
My personal size has all the articles. It is 100% the same, I got it in 2018. My original one does not have the articles. I am going to get the large print edition and call it a day hopefully.
My personal size is identical in every way except for an abbreviated concordance in the very back. Other than that, every letter is in the same relative location in every page.
As far as size goes there is a “personal size” available which is great for portability. You get all the excellent content and except for the articles in the back
Thank you so much.
The LSB is my favorite translation, which replaced the NASB95 as my fav, but the ESV is my second favorite and I have the ESV Study Bible in my library, as should every Christian! An amazing resource, and yes the BEST study Bible EVER in history!
Same opinion here. I use the LSB and the ESV study Bible
I’m in the same boat.
What are the differences between LSB and ESV
@@StudioEnergizerMV LSB uses Yahweh instead of LORD in the Old Testament, more consistent in translating the same Hebrew or Greek words and phrases so you can follow trends through the Bible, capitalized pronouns for God, italicized words that were added by the translators. But the LSB reads similar to both the NASB95 and ESV.
@@RyGuy8989 oh okay, I actually really like the sound of it so I might have to check it out
Yeah man I love that esv study Bible, had it for years with daily use and it’s still holding up strong.
My friend you then need to look a little closer at the ESV. Maybe you just haven't seen the perversions in the ESV?

Hi Matthew. Enjoying your videos in the UK. I've recently bought an ESV bible, after giving more thought to what translation I'm reading from. I wondered what good commentaries you (and anyone else) could recommend? I thought I'd probably get the Macarthur one, but wondering what solid, timeless commentaries are around. Thanks!
I use the ESV Study Bible and love it. I take it to church every Sunday and read from it all week. Thank you for the review and your time.
I would probably use mine in church.. but the church I attend is rooted in the NASB... another questionable translation.. but better than some...
@@jeffcarlson3269
Why is it questionable?
@@connorpusey5912 I suppose the NASB is better than most.. but here are a couple of examples....
in the NASB 77 translation read Luke 24:51.... compare this to NASB 95... note the end of that verse..in the older version of the NASB ..there is NO mention of Jesus being taken up... or ascending.. which the NASB 95 thought to correct... why?... because in Luke's reference to Theophilus in the book of Acts 1:1.. Luke states he has made a former statement of "all Jesus began both to do and to teach... it does not make sense that Luke would Not include the ascension as they omitted in NASB 77 Luke 24:51 does it?..so an error perhaps in the earlier version of this translation
@@connorpusey5912 next take a look at 1 John 5:6-8 in the NASB 95 and compare how this reads in the earlier NASB... why was this changed...?.. the NASB 77 follows the KJV in the layout between verse 6 . but has parts of the rest different... yet the NASB 95 doesn't match up to the NASB 77 at all here.. words added changed...what is the purpose of verse 7 in the NASB 77...?
another weakness I feel is in the interpretation on the NASB's part regarding Job 4:17
KJV..." Should mortal man be MORE just than God?...should a man be more pure than His maker?..
NASB : Can mankind be just before God? can a man be pure before his Maker?...
compare these... KJV and NASB.. note that in the KJV.. we see that Job's friend is accusing Job of thinking himself BETTER than God.. in the NASB.. we see that Job is accused of thinking himself equal to God...
which is worse?..I believe the KJV shows us more of the severity of job's friend's accusation than the NASB and others do for the most part....
@@connorpusey5912 here are a couple others 1 Cor 1:18... KJV.....:...which are saved:... NASB..."who are being saved"...... I realize that salvation is a constant ..I believe in once saved always saved...being saved gives the connotation that this "salvation".. is a constant act... Not completed.. I believe that the act of being "saved".. is a one time event.. and though we are progressively sanctified.. we are NOT being continually saved...that is like saying Jesus has to continue to shed His blood afresh for us... because salvation is NEVER a completed act...
Rev 4:11.... why were we created?....KJV. ."for thou hast created all things AND for thy pleasure they were and are created".... NASB...:....and because of your will they existed and were created"..
does the NASB tell us why we were created NO!... only How... what if I wanted to know "why am I here?"....
My ESV Study bible was printed in the USA 🇺🇸
Reformation Study Bible is also printed in the USA.
Crossway's ESV Study Bible is definitely my top favorite Study Bible, with my second and third favorites being Zondervan's NIV Study Bible and Tyndale House's NLT Life Application Study Bible.
Love the ESV study Bible. Got one as a wedding present from my pastor back in 2010, this edition was printed in the USA. I also use it on Logos most of the time as it’s easier to use digitally for me
I got one 6 years ago and read it cover to cover. Well still working on the back end. This is my forever Bible. Calf skin leather which I don’t think they make anymore.
Since you've read it cover to cover,are there any verses missing? Just curious because I keep hearing that from some people.
@@darnellwilcox4600 What is wonderful about the ESV Study bible (and the ESV in general) the “missing” verses are all included. Some in the footnotes as “some translations say” or in the text itself.
The 2016 (permanent text) large print ESV Study Bible is so very good. I love mine.
Love the ESV Reformation Study Bible from my teacher R.C. Sproul. Thank you, Matthew!
I was going to mention Reformation Study Bible, but you beat me to it. I have been reading through RSB and absolutely love it!
@@danielsell7598 guess I'll have to revisit my copy... I didn't think that much of it when I first got it ... it's been shelved ever since..!
Then you have a bad bible and a bad teacher. Sad.

Excellent review of the ESV Study Bible. My current Study Bible has fallen apart into about 9 sections so I am looking for a place to send it to get rebounded. It was my Dad’s Bible and he passed away so I definitely wanted his Bible. He read it every day for 20+ years and highlighted it in yellow. So since I led my Dad to Jesus I wanted his Bible. I have used it every day for 10+ years highlighting it in pink so we see the difference between my Dad’s study and myself. If you have a recommendation for rebinding the Bible please share with me as to whom I can get this done. I am planning on buying the ESV Study Bible!!! Thank you very much for this review!!!‼️👍💪❤️🇺🇸🙌🙏✝️
A good book binding shop can do wonders for your dad's Bible. I recently had my favorite 'Open Bible' from 1981 rebound and the results are amazing. I am reading it daily again and hopefully it will last another 40 years. Best $40 I have spent.
Thank you for this! You've shown that I don't use my ESV Study Bible to the fullest!
I studied a year of Greek in my undergrad which included translating scripture from the Greek and definitely concur with Pastor Matt here that ESV is a very good translation. Especially if you’re wanting one of the closest Word for Word translations out there.

I'm interested in investing in a good Bible to possibly hand down to my kids. I'd considered a Schuyler, but the size of the standard is too big for me and the personal size I'm concerned would be too small. I'm considering either a cowhide ESV STUDY BIBLE or the premium Reformation Study Bible.
Wow, just hearing that you are familiar with some of the scholars involved with this helps me have even more confidence that this is good material. I don't know most of the names. I feel like barely scratched the surface of what this volume holds. What a treasure!
so if I told you I shook hands with the pope ... would you switch to Catholicism?..
@@jeffcarlson3269 What does this comment have to do with mine?
@Yesica1993 why do you think that someone who knows some of these scholars makes this information trustworthy?... there are a lot of people in the world sharing a lot of misinformation... just because I happen to know one of these lie spreaders personally verifies they know what they are talking about..? and should be trusted...?.. from what you stated this seems to be how you base.. your wisdom... what my statement was trying to do is to snap you out of this false thinking.. You are very naive if you even.. wonder about someone knowing these scholars and them being right... the only thing You I or anybody can trust is God's word... My son is a Philosophy teacher at a high school... I did Not raise him to do that,.. but I will keep praying for him.. After 4 years of bible college I was hoping he would have gone into the ministry.. but my point is.. even though he has philosophy degrees.. and I raised him.. I will not just accept anything he states as truth based on that.basis.... Am I being insensitive?.. cold?.. perhaps.. but.. don't let people gain your trust just cuz they know someone. even if it is a scholar,.. that means NOTHING..
@Yesica1993... I apologize and do not wish to be harsh... there is some good info here... but.. when I here that someone thinks something is a good idea.. because the one they are listening to.. has some inside track by perhaps knowing someone.. or has some other knowledge.. I get defensive.. because.. even though I am on this site as well.. I still think I and everyone else should determine for themselves what is good or bad.. based on personal experience.. Not hearsay... but these sites are enlightening at times.. when they are Not taken as Gospel..
@Yesica1993... just a side note..... for instance.... I used to think that Art Farstad.... another scholar.. and general editor.. of the NKJV.. was very intelligent.. but the more I have learned about him and his beliefs.. I now find his approach to scripture a little too liberal for my tastes along with a dash of secularism.. .. so I have learned that scholars aren't always what they seem... I am Not saying that any of the scholars who worked on the ESV.. are that way... but.. I will no Longer assume they are not...
Something worth noting is that the personal size edition was redone a couple years back to include the articles and resources in the back. I have the black hard cover personal size and it has everything that the full size has. Just make sure it isn't an older publication and it's got everything!
I also have an Allan personal size Study Bible that has all of the articles, etc, in it. I got it a couple of years ago.
I have a hard cover version from 2009 printed in the US. I wonder how much to have it leather bound?
Love the esv study bible. Love the mini theological encyclopedia in the back.
Matthew, im not sure if you've looked at the ESV commentary set but it's really good. They haven't released all the volumes yet but I have most of them. I'm curious on your thoughts if you are familiar with that resource.
My favorite study bible also and I also like NASB t1995 translation from Schuyler as a regular reader.
Love both the ESV Study Bible and the Reformation Study Bible use them both in my study and sermon prep. I use the Reformation one as my daily and pulpit Bible. I think that the back material and color pictures and maps in the ESV put above the rest.
You do know that the Reformation Study Bible comes in several translation (ESV being one of several translations).

@@Believe_the_Bible I know the same arguments as you have. And I do use the KJV also. But the KJV has been revised four times itself. Also, you'll be surprised when you get to Heaven and find out that the Apostle Paul did not go on his missionary trips with the KJV as it seems like so many of the fundamental fools such as yourself believe. I did not comment the video originally to get into a debate with Fundamental Fools or legalistic lunatics.
Based on your review, I just bought one. And, subscribed. Many thanks. Peace be with you!
I have an esv study bible but mine is just hardcover. That one looks so nice
Great stuff as always brother!
Love your content, but especially enjoy your straight faced humor... I couldn't help but smile when you were discussing the heft of the Bible and the kettle bells, uhaul, airline fee... 😂

I enjoy your channel very much! You didn't mention the size of the font. I have read other reviews that recommend the Large Print version because they said the font of the ESV Study Bible (not Large Print) was uncomfortable to read. I wondered what you thought about the font size. :)
Another Great Review, Pastor. Can I assume if another of the ESV Study Bible has same number of pages, has the same content and features? I love all the features in this one, but it is above my means. I am looking for a less expensive one with the same features. Inflation is taking its toll on me. Thanks again for your videos. They are a blessing.
Put it on my Christmas / Birthday wish list just last week. According to Amazon

Well done
Read your book on Edwards' Resolutions right before for the New Year and was greatly encouraged and motivated to, like Edwards, strive for holiness-but, of course, as you have clearly made known-by the grace of God. This led me to also read your book on Edwards's Theology of Joy, which too was a wonderful read. I found myself more-dare I say-happy in God after reading it. But having read a fair deal of Edwards myself, I can say with all honesty that both of your books on him evoked greater love in my heart not for the man Edwards, but for the gloriously happy God of Jonathan Edwards. So thank you brother for your contribution to the advancement of Edwardsean theology in the church and, most of all, to the kingdom of our great God!
Nick!! Thank you for sharing that!!!

I have a couple editions of the compact ESV SB. Have you used one of these in reference to carrying to church, etc?
I’ve settled on the ESV as well. Thank you for helping me understand it better.
Could you deal with the ESS issue people talk about in the ESVSB?
This is impressive
I may try one if it's got great scholarship.
Is the 2014 edition in 11 font heavier than the updated versions 10.5? Is there any other differences in editions?
Hey pastor Matt,
As a presbyterian I too prefer the ESV study bible over the reformation study Bible. Not because the ESVSB notes are especially more reformed but there is just such a wealth of solid information and obviously they aren't too off from reformed theology. Where they aren't I like the challenge that makes me look deeper. I mean it does have Assembly of God even represented in second Peter and Jude! Not what I would have picked but interesting.
Also the personal size has ALL the articles now. Early editions did not.
I have over 60 study bibles and this one is still one of the best. While I’m not a Calvinist and the study notes are I find it to be an excellent resource. Now we need to push them to re-release the premium heritage version.
60?! You're joking, right?
@@Yesica1993 I currently have 64 unique study bibles and there about 10 more I plan on getting. I do have some duplicates on top of that number as well because if I like one enough to highlight and take notes in it I will buy a second copy to keep an unmarked one. I also have a couple dozen regular Bible with no study notes, but I don’t tend to buy those anymore.
To be fair though I’m in my 50s and my only “hobby” is theology. I’m sure my entire theology library (around 500 books currently but growing) cost less than a fishing boat or a nice camper etc... I try to get the best quality editions and I keep the original boxes so that they only have ware from me reading them. I also don’t mark in any of my books unless I get a second copy. This will allow me to pass on a library of well maintained and unmarked books to someone else when I die. I also try to only keep books that are theologically sound (conservative evangelical) so that I don’t pass on garbage to the next generation. That has caused me to chuck a few books (and bibles) in the trash.
Ok@@SaneNoMore
Quindi avrai buttato la Diodati che porta il nome di Dio sotto forma di geova...Bibbia del 1600 circa!!@@SaneNoMore

1. It defies the deity of Christ.
2. It changes salvation from grace to works
3. It blasphemes' Jesus Christ
4. It changes prophecy
5. It defies the virgin birth
6. If that is not enough there's so much more...
7. Does away with dispensational teaching
8. It does away with "rightly dividing" the word of God. God's method of study only found in the KJB.
Use the only English bible that has the words of God - the KJB. Yes, I have scripture proof of each claim I made here.
Do you know where I can get this bible in an older version before they started to change some of the Verses? Something closer to the Nasb?
so cool I got one I check it says 2008 1st print :) love it'
My biggest beef with this Bible is that I wish they used more contrast on the maps. Green is a color that many people struggle with and they use different shades of green that can be hard to see. Also I have a 2016 Personal size and in it they have the articles in the back. Wonder if they went back to adding it. Great review and great Bible!
Cheers for the video Matthew, is it true this has a heavy calvinist/Reformed bias to it? It's put me off this study bible quite a lot, especially considering the translation itself (even though it's great) sometimes leans a little Reformed
Thanks for this video! I've been researching study Bibles. The ESV keeps turning up as the top
I agree and I bring that to our church as well. I have the personal size.
I wanted the personal size but the notes are just too small for my poor eyeballs. Even the regular size strains me. I bought the large print. Definitely not for church! It's huge. But it's wonderful.

Mine is 2007, have there been changes to it since then or just prints?
I have a ESV Study Bible with the 2011 translation revision. Has the ESV Study Bible changed much since then?
Matt I'm getting a esv study bible for my self I can't wait until it gets here I watch your videos I also do the miscellaneous bible notes I saw you showed good job
The ESV is presently my preferred translation. This study Bible looks fantastic.
I own two versions of the ESV Study Bible: one in Portuguese and one in Spanish. Both were edited in Brazil by the same company, they are practically identical. What's interesting is that both are printed in black ink, with a single accent color (orange). I wish they had colorful illustrations and maps, like the original version. Still, the one in Portuguese is my most used study Bible at the moment, I absolutely love it.
Hola, me podrías decir como se llama esta Biblia en español? Me gustaría conseguirla, pero no se como buscarla.

I enjoy your Bible reviews. You have nice bibles and thoughtful commentary.
Have you done your research on the Catholic Church and the complete Bibles(with the deutero-canonical books not taken out)?
There are a lot of misconceptions about Catholics, and it is said many people hate what they think the Catholic Church is, few people hate what the Catholic Church actually is.
For those with low vision, the ESV Study Bible is available for the Kindle. I find it particularly useful on a 10" iPad. It retains the full color of diagrams and maps and the text can be enlarged to suit.
I watched this again just now. My Allan ESV Personal Size Study Bible includes all of the articles and "extras". The Crossway personal size does not. Also, Schuyler has created a full blown premium Schuyler ESV Study Bible available for preorder now. Will you be getting one, Matthew? It has to be the ultimate. Allan's personal size uses the same Crossway block from China. I dearly wish Schuyler would do one as the regular size is a beast. The font is smaller, though... something I have to be more mindful of.
Is this replacing the Allan as your go to Study Bible?
very well... I will price it... and see if my wife will let me buy it !
Hello Pastor,
You have taught me so much. I appreciate it and thank you!
I have a question.
I have the woman's ESV study Bible.
I love KJV and ESV.
Recently I am in Genesis. Rarely do I read the devotionals.
The devotional by Heather House said," Jacob does nothing to win God's favor and Esau does nothing to lose it. God loves both."
Malachi 1 states differently.
"2 “I loved you,” says the Lord.
“But you ask, ‘How did you love us?’
“Wasn’t Esau Jacob’s brother?” declares the Lord. “I loved Jacob, 3 but Esau I hated. I turned his mountains into a wasteland and left his inheritance to the jackals in the desert.
4 “The descendants of Esau may say, ‘We have been beaten down, but we will rebuild the ruins.’
“Yet, this is what the Lord of Armies says: They may rebuild, but I will tear it down. They will be called ‘the Wicked Land’ and ‘the people with whom the Lord is always angry.’ 5
Now as I read in ESV I wonder what to believe. I use to be strictly KJV. I respect it.
Do you have anything to say concerning this discrepancy?
I would greatly appreciate your input! Shalom aleichem.
I just got a black genuine leather for Christmas from Truth for Life. So far I love it. It's still to bulky to be my main reader, but I dig all the bells and whistles it has.

Does the large print edition use the same paper?
I have a copy of the ESV personal size study Bible and all of the back articles are there. You must have an older copy.
I believe the older versions did not have some of the material & then they recently put out a newer version that included it.
I'm very nearsighted and have the personal size edition of this, so it's like it's encrypted in that nobody can read its print except me.
"Biblical Doctrine: an Overview" is indeed in the personal size edition, as i think all the articles are. I think the only thing missing in the personal size is that the concordance is much abridged
The personal size is way too small print for me. (Especially the notes.) I got the large print. It's a beast. Definitely for home use, not taking to church. But I love it!
Fantastic overview of the content of these Bibles. I've purchased 4 of them to gift to my parents, wife and myself for Christmas so we can dive into the word with context and history.
QUESTION 1: Should I buy the ESV Study Bible or the MacArthur ESV Study Bible 2nd Edition?
QUESTION 2: Does the MacArthur ESV Study Bible 2nd Edition contain 100% of the ESV STUDY Bible content (just with added notes from MacArthur) or is some of the original ESV notes removed in the MacArthur?
Thank you, Pastor Matt. I always enjoy your videos. Durban, South Africa
I was between this and the Reformation Study Bible. I think I am going to get this. I do have to ask, however, would you suggest this or a wide margin version of the Bible instead?
Why do you think the newer translations have gone away from the Red Lettering of the Words of Christ? Curious if you have any thoughts on that. It is my number one complaint with many of the newer translations.
Is there any good KJV or NKJV study bibles you’d recommend?
I want to switch to an ESV study Bible but can someone please tell me why you can not find one with red letters. Thanks
I've noticed that there aren't very many editions of the ESV bible in red letter. This drives me crazy personally. I really feel I need the red letter text. You would think with everything this bible contains it would also have red letters.
I enjoy reading the ESV as well. I think it is a fine translation. I like the NKJV and KJV too. And some others as well.
I have the older (2014) edition, which has a larger font than this edition. The larger the print the better for me, although this font is still very readable. I absolutely love this study bible. The wealth of information with the notes and the resources at the back after Revelation is just staggering. I got to commend the scholars for their hard work on this Bible. I recently ordered the MacArthur Study Bible (NASB 1995) and I'm really looking forward to reading MacArthur's notes, as it has 5,000 more than the ESV Study Bible, at 25,000 notes, which is amazing.
I have the ESV personal size, I have all the same content as the full-size version. Not sure if maybe the older prints leave out the content after Revelation. The one I use has everything.
Mine was printed in 2020, 11 printing.
I hope this info helps anyone looking to get the personal sized version, who also wants all the content.
I prefer the CSB Study Bible, personally. ESV is not far behind though.
Good runner up is the NIV revised Study Bible. That one pretty awesome too. Nelson KJV full color Study Bible top notch too!

Nice Bible review - Love the translation - Thanks for sharing
Absolutely love my ESV study Bible!💗💗💗💗. I also really love the translation. I also love to read the NASB and NKJ translation.
Have you done any serious study on John 2:6?
Curious why you chose this particular ESV Study Bible and not RC Sproul's Reformation ESV Study Bible?
Now I know why the ESV is so loved by so many. Now I know what my next study bible is going to be - I only wish I had discovered it earlier in my faith-walk. I just received the MacArthur hard cover for a study reference, so it will be a little while or the wife will... never mind... she wouldn't do that anyway. But I'd still feel guilty for buying two great resources so quickly in succession. Great review. Cannot wait to own one.
