Fails to deliver its promise ! June 1, 2008 7 out of 20 found this review helpful
The CSB translation of the Apologetics Study Bible is more accurate than the NIV but less than the ESV. On that note, I don't recommend this Bible for many reasons. First, the 130 Apologetic articles presented throughout this Bible are not even well written or convicting. Secondly, there is no cross reference, the footnotes only elaborate on a deeper understanding of the scriptures mentioned and they contain little historical or `apologetic' information. Thirdly, beyond the reasons aforementioned and many others, I don't recommend this Bible because it falls very short of what it promises, lack of scientific information, lack of truly proving that Christ's claims are unique... For a good study Bible, I recommend checking out the ESV literary study Bible or the ESV Reformation Study Bible, but NOT the Apologetics S. B...

I have always wanted to know how to approach my friends and others who have had questions about the Bible and the Christian faith. This Bible allows me to search and understand the topics that arise throughout the Old and New Testaments in an insightful and fun read.

This is a great study bible. It was more than what I thought in the fact that it is very good in explaining questions that are up in the air. It would be a good addition to a Sunday School teacher and Bible Study group. It would also be good for just having as an individual.

I really love this Bible. The translation is easy to understand, the words are good sized and the tabs are black for Old Testament and red for the New testament. There are a lot of topics addressed. I just really like this Bible.
A truly impressive work of biblical scholarship April 3, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
For Christians of all denominations and affiliations, the Holy Bible is the bedrock document of their faith. Being universally acknowledged in its importance, the necessity to be as informed as possible about what the Bible teaches and what it is necessary to understand in this secular age, "The Apologetics Study Bible" was created with contributions form Chuck Colson, Ravi Zacharias, Norman Geisler, J. P. Moreland, and many other scholars to help non-specialist general readers address such major questions and issues as the existence of God, the concept of evolution, the evidence underlaying the believe in the resurrection of Jesus Christ, personal destiny, and the paradox of evil in a world under the influence of a benevolent deity. "The Apologetics Study Bible" features introductions and notes for each of the 66 books comprising the Bible, more than 130 informative articles, biographical sketches of renowned Christian apologists, a timeline of Christian apologists and their works, thematically relevant archaeological charts, five full color maps, and an extensive annotated bibliography. Of special note are the 'Twisted Scripture Notes' addressing common ways that Scripture has been distorted by some heretical groups contrary to historic and traditional Christian teachings. A truly impressive work of biblical scholarship, "The Apologetics Study Bible" is confidently recommended for personal, seminary, academic, and community library reference collections and supplemental reading lists.
