BEST NEW TESTAMENT Study Notes Ever! July 12, 2008 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is the best New Testament Study Bible if you are a serious student of the Word. Best Study Notes combined with the most accurate translation of the New Testament. If you're looking for a good study Bible, this is the one. The exact same study notes are also found in Zondervan's NIV Study Bible if you prefer a Bible that is leaning on the side of transliteration (thought for thought). But if you want the most accurate translation, (word for word) then the combination of the NASB and these study tools is unmatched.
The ESV is another great and accurate translation, but the study notes are not as powerful. Of course the ESV Interlinear is the best I've every seen, so check it out if you're a student of the Greek.
I would not recommend study in the Old Testament from this translation however, since the publishers fell prey to the pressures of all the God hating scientists and kind of fudged on the translation to leave room for the new aged ideas that were permeating the science community at the time this work was done. Better stick with the King James or the New King James if you want the most accurate English translation in the Old Testament. Those boys under King James did a rock solid translation, free from any pressures from a biased science community. I carry both the NASB to teach from for the New Testament and the New King James to teach from the Old Testament. You should too.
Finally, the 350 plus manuscripts that have been discovered since the King James translation that pre-dated anything those boys had at the time they did their critical work, helps us to find those passages that had been erroneously added by the early church fathers. Bless their hearts, but it becomes quite evident who added what and when they added it, because all of the earlier manuscripts that pre-date their service in the Catholic Church are missing certain passages in all of the older manuscripts. So now we know who added what and when. God is good, isn't He? This is why the King James and New King James is not the best English translation to use when teaching the New Testament.
A wonderful study Bible! March 12, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This was the second study Bible I read, and my first formal, word-for-word translation of the original text - as exhilarating as graduating from a tricycle to a two-wheeler! Its study notes opened up new worlds to me: They talk about what various passages mean to the reader, of course, but they also provide extensive historical and geographic references, pertinent cross-references, and explanations of everything from theological phrases to ancient Hebrew idioms. Reading it, I suddenly felt as if I was indeed beginning to learn about the mind of God Himself; I was no longer dabbling in the faith.
