Other information
'The ESV is a dream come true for me. The rightful heir to a great line of historic translations, it provides the continuity and modern accuracy I longed for. Now the scope and theological faithfulness of the ESV Study Bible study notes is breathtaking. Oh how precious is the written Word of God.'- John Piper, Pastor for Preaching and Vision, Bethlehem Baptist Church, Minneapolis, MN

'The ESV Study Bible is the finest study tool I have seen in fifty years of Bible teaching. The notes, articles, maps, and illustrations are all of the highest quality. It is a great achievement!'
- Jerry Bridges, speaker, bestselling author of The Pursuit of Holiness
'I was privileged to act as General Editor of the English Standard Version, and now that I look back on what we did in producing that version, I find myself suspecting very strongly that this was the most important thing that I have ever done for the Kingdom, and that the product of our labors is perhaps the biggest milestone in Bible translation in certainly the last half century at least, and perhaps more. And now, as Theological Editor of the ESV Study Bible, I believe that the work we have done together on this project has set an altogether new standard in study Bibles.'
- J I Packer, Professor of Theology, Regent College, Vancouver, Canada

Customer Reviews
Thorough but highly biased
As it advertises there is a wealth of maps, diagrams, notes, charts tables etc to help better understand the biblical text It is also very nicely presented.
However it is very biased indeed. It is advertised as evangelical but is of a very much reformed position and makes this known at every possible opportunity. For me a study bible should not interpret the text in this way as it leaves no room for other possibilities. It simply declares outright that this is what the text means. I'm not sure how helpful this is then as a resource. For me a study bible should shed light on the text using history, archaeology, knowledge of original language etc. Giving the reader the tools to better understand a passage. It should not, in my opinion interpret every passage for the reader.
If you are of a reformed persuasion I'm sure you will love this bible but for me it is far less useful.
