ESV Study Bible

I've been looking for a good study bible for some time and having picked up my daughters copy I thought this would be ideal. I also looked at an NIV one but found this easier to read. I'm a great fan of Wayne Grudem especially his book on systematic theology, so it's lovely to see his handywork in this study bible. Lots of extra resources, and maps and pictures, as context is everything. I wish I had bought this a long time ago, and I can't recommend it enough.

This is a fantastic study bible with thousands upon thousands of cross references between the two testaments.I would fully recommend purchasing BOTH the physical and digital versions of the book.It is also fully illustrated but the illustrations do not “get in the way” a lot of thought has been given in the design of the book.Highly recommendable !!

I have been wanting this for ages .Seems it on Instagram so I bought myself one .I am so glad I did as its so informative.Not keen on the cover design so for now just covered it in clear plastic as I know it will get dirty as it's White and I will be using it a lot .The pages are thin ( need to be) so will struggle to get highlighters but on every page so much information to help you understand each passage so no more googling when I don't understand. Well worth the money. Quite heavy as so big but I love it .God bless .

I have the book version of this bible and its a beast! So, for the price, I figured I wouldn't be crying if it wasn't a brilliant kindle version as I always have the book to go back to. Honestly, I'm surprised it's not charged more as a kindle version! I have the fire 10 and use the kindle app on it. This means all the pictures, info graphics, charts and maps are all in colour. The linkage from the text to the the notes, cross references, dictionary and so is superb and I've pretty much shelved my beloved paper version and happily use the kindle version. The guide at the beginning of this version explains how it all works and it took a read through once or twice to fully grasp it as it's a significant amount of text and how they've put it all together. I cannot comment on a kindle paper l, but on the kindle app on the fire tablet, it's the cats pyjamas!

Most modern study bibles have fallen into apostasy in some form. Even the AMP has now fallen into supporting women leading the church, and the Macarthur study bibles are cessasionist - which quash the Holy Spirit and the spiritual gifts. This study bible is truly accurate and holds firm to biblical truth. Definitely recommended.

I can't remember why I choose to buy this particular version of a Kindle Bible (Oh yes I do, I wanted an ESV to complete my Kindle set of Bibles which I'm easily able to carry around with me). Anyway, once I'd got it downloaded, I found it to be so helpful with loads of amplifying explanations of verses and so many charts and diagrams. A really helpful feature is that each of the charts and diagrams can be viewd on a web page if you need to see it in greater detail.Another helpful feature is the "Index" facility where you are able to type in a short code for each book and then a chapter number and you can quickly go to that new reference. So, for instance, if you're currently reading in Isaiah chapter 53 and need to quickly jump to John chapter 3, you simply hit the facilities key on the Kindle, click down to "Index" and type in "Jn 3" and there you are. I find this a much quicker system for re-direction than many others.I have a number of study type Bibles and find this one to be the best (from my personal point of view)

Lovely version of the Bible and is said to stand closer to the original ancient manuscripts. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is not for the Bible but for the notes. I was aware from other reviews that the notes were ‘off’ but they weren’t the main reason I bought this ESV version. However I felt I must point out that some of the notes are just not right and seem to be ‘people inspired’ rather than ‘Spirit inspired’. Checking one in particular at Luke 13:35, it directly contradicts another note on Psalm 118:26. So a great translation but don’t take the notes as gospel

I hope that the following review will help prospective purchasers. I give the Kindle to PC five stars as it provides a clear format on screen, with choice of page colour (black, white, tinted)and also a great flexibility of viewing options. The Kindle only version is more restricted and although good is only four stars by comparison. It may be just usage but I find that with the Kindle version I only read as though it were a book without notes, while with the Kindle to PC version I refer to the notes with much greater ease, not just the cross references but also the study notes. Having previously purchased a hard copy ESV bible eligible for the free ESV study download I would strongly recommend this above both the above Kindle versions. That download is available outside the USA and, although it is a very large download to PC, it is a wonderful tool. (One needs to consult the ESV website to find which books contain this offer)
