How did I not know about this Bible?! (A look at the Baker Illustrated Study Bible) 

To the people at Baker Publishing or whoever has the print rights/permission please Strongly consider a reprint of this Bible! At 100K plus views of this Bible there are many interested in getting a print copy! I feel Disciple Dojo would deserve a small percentage of the sales for putting this Bible on a lot of wishlists😊 and hopefully he gets to do a remake of this review for the reprint version❤

Thanks for the review! Spent a year working on that project. Means so much to hear the work was worth it.

You keep adding to my wish list of Bible related reading. 🙂 Thanks for the insights.

I got this channel recommended just in time for Christmas. I'm definitively checking this Bible and also some of the ones mentioned in the comment section.

I am so glad to see your Review of this AWESOME Study Bible! This is definitely one of my favorite Study Bibles. I fell in love with this Bible immediately. I purchased this Study Bible in 2022. You've pointed out some things that are very important for my studies. Looking forward to more of your Reviews.

Thanks and a great review. I bought one about a year ago but need to use it more often. It was not easy to find in the UK but managed it. Thanks again.

I just got the Kindle version. Someone anonymously is just really wanting to bless others. $3.99? Sereiosly...so grateful, and all glory goes to God.❤

Thank you for your thorough review. That looks like a great Study Bible. I have a lot of different Study Bibles & I just love them. My bookshelves are too full, so now it’s get them on my Kindle Fire. I do wish some like my Chronological Life Appl. one were offered in more translations (chose KJV over NLT).

I remember being the one from Brazil who emailed you a long time ago saying you should review this Bible ;)

I am so surprised this was "new" to you?! I have had it for a few years + love it!!! Absolutely wonderful review and video...tyvm for sharing your thoughts, great job!👍

This and the Cultural Backgrounds Study Bible are my favorites! Incredible work.

I bought this on a few months ago not knowing anything about the CSB or the Baker Study Bible. I find I am starting to use it lot and loving it and the CSB translation!

Great review. God bless your ministry.

You are new to me-you are very good @ this! Thank you!

*Baker Illustrated Bible COMMENTARY vs Baker Illustrated SB* , hey people!, since its out of print the SB, the Baker Illustrated Bible Commentary its an excellent option, since it has exactly the same study notes as the SB,...thats for sure, also it seems that instead of the scriptures it has more pics and essays...

Tim Nickels just listed this book as one of his favorite study Bibles, too. I considered it when I was looking at different CSB options, but it didn't seem to offer much that I didn't already have from other resources. I do wish some of the study Bibles in the 2017 edition of the CSB would get proper updates with the 2020 text. (The differences are minor, but they're enough to make me unenthusiastic about getting a print Bible that uses the earlier edition.)

I have that Bible and I love it!!! I studied it several years ago…. I was surprised that not many people talked about it.

This will be going on my wish list!

I really like it. It's in the CSB translation, which is also a very good translation. Personally speaking, I wouldn't say it's the best study Bible or my favorite study Bible, but it is a very good study Bible that's better than many other study Bibles. Definitely one of the better study Bibles. 😊

Not sure why Baker seems to stop printing so many of their biblical reference books. Nearly all of the “Baker Illustrated” volumes on my shelf had to be purchased used.

Keep reviewing ALL the cool study Bibles. Now I know what to keep an eye out for when shopping used books. Thank You!

Thanks for this review - very useful.

I also wanted to say this is my favorite Study Bible on my Kindle app compared to my Zondervan Archaeological SB & Cultural Backgrounds SB. The study notes format on the Baker one is the best, IMO. So easy to navigate.

I'm a giant fan of study bibles. I'll have to grab this one. Thank you!

Can’t wait!

Best study bible I've ever used is the Thompson chain reference.

i like the blue color on the footnotes and on the articles kind of reminds me of the cristian growth study bible that i own it has the 1984 text of the Niv its awsome wish more bibles did the blu intesd of the red i have a thompson chain but the red letters keep me away so i dont use it as my main bible sadly

Just find your channel. Love it. Great stuff! And I love your collection in the background 😊 Stay blessed, greetings from Germany.

What is so frustrating is this week right to a clearance sale and only available in hardback, if you’re lucky. Baker print more in leather soft

Thanks for this review! One technical thing though: Not sure if anyone else ran into this issue, but even with the max resolution of this upload (720p) I still couldn't really read the text

Olive Tree Bible Software has this study Bible. Nice thing about Olive Tree (and Logos) is that I have both these excellent programs on my PC and on my phone, so I carry my entire Bible library wherever I go.

I've been really liking the CSb translation lately. A few places are saying this Bible is out of print & only have ebook copies.

I can't find a hardcopy for sale anywhere... Only online formats.. 😢

I have this exact Bible and love the CSB translation.

Where did you buy yours? I can't seem to find it for sale.

this looks really cool, thank you for telling others about this

I would be very curious if the baker illustrated commentary (that is still in print) is comparable on the balanced notes.

I have several study Bibles. It is very useful to look at them all when reading some of the more “difficult” passages of Scripture. As a Catholic, the Bishops Conference of England and Wales does have only one officially approved translation for use for teaching and study purposes. Currently, this is the Second Edition of the Revised Standard Version (1971/72) which is, in fact, very close to the original RSV (1946/1952) and just removes some of the more archaic language. This is soon to be replaced by the Anglicised version of the English Standard Bible, the most recent revision of the Authorised Version (the “King James Bible”). However, most versions of the Authorised Version are very similar. I happen to use a study Bible based on the New Revised Standard Version, simply because there are plenty available in this translation, which is the version adopted by the Church of England and, in fact, used by the Catholic Church in Canada. The Catholic Church requires any translation to be a direct, literal, translation from the best manuscripts in the original language. As a result, “interpretative” translations, or those using the “dynamic equivalent” approach are not permitted. Similarly, a “translation from a translation” is not permitted, so English translations from the Latin Vulgate are not now permitted (the Douay-Rheims or Knox translations, for example). This may seem very restrictive, however, once you permit a translator to impose his own “interpretation” when translating from the original language, there is always the risk that he will introduce his own personal bias into the process. The Catholic Church teaches that the Sacred Scriptures have God as their author and that he used the authors as His instruments. As a result, the most authentic versions of the original manuscripts in the original language must be taken as having been written by Almighty God himself. Therefore, a translator must translate directly and literally from the original language - he cannot interpose his own personal interpretation along the way, to make what he might consider “better sense” of what Almighty God has written.

This came from the baker bible commentary which has been around sinse the 80s I think, which was more recently updated to the baker illustrated bible commentary this study bible came from.

Out of print apparently according to publisher's website. Only eBook available.

Filled with lots of excellent facts and quality info. Just remember Baker Books is basically a Reformed publishing house. In other words they are calvinistic, amillennial and reformed.

Looks cool... but I can only find the kindle version on Amazon for some reason...

❤ I have this! My all time favorite!

I really appreciate you looking at the different takes on Romans 7. I compiled a book called The Arminian Bible Commentary and just added a quote from Tertullian that demonstrates how he understood the text. He took it as Paul describing his own past experience while under the Law. This is how I take it as well. One thing that is very telling is how English translations all too often render the present tense verb κατεργαζομένη (is working [death]) into English as if it were a past tense verb, but then they suddenly shift their methods in verse 14 ff. to rendering the present tense as presents in English. If they were consistent with their approach in verse 13 it would likely help resolve common misinterpretation of that passage. It’s sad that people take that as the normal experience of a man after he is in Christ.

I have this.. I’ve found at least 3 issues with cross references to wrong places… still love it

Out of all my Study Bibles, this is my favorite. But I think it's out of print. I wish Baker would bring it back.

I was not even aware of this bible?? After seeing your video looked online at several places and seemed all i could find was digital version. Does anyone know where this can be purchased in imitation leather or leather cover??

This bible looks so beatiful! Its make me want to read and pray!

My favorite Study Bible!

Is it in Deuteronomy where Moses tells the people, "...God has multiplied your numbers by the thousands...". I always saw that as a limiter when seeing the order of the tribes striking out in the desert.

I just checked Amazon and it says "currently unavailable".

I see this title is available digital through olive tree. Does anyone know if this is good in the digital format?

Can't find this anywhere. It lists amazon and Barnes and Noble, neither if which has an actual book. Just Kindle and ebook

Looks like a nice Bible. Reminds me of the ESV study Bible.

I have looked everywhere for it. The link to Amazon is an E book. Any suggestions?

I found a brand new copy, brown "leather touch" cover for only $50! It just arrived today.

Any idea if the folks at Baker are working on an updated edition? I would love an actual copy as opposed to a kindle edition

I'm bummed that Amazon doesn't stock several of the (print version) study Bibles that you recommend. 😕

I WANT ONE BUT I CANT FIND IT! It’s only available as an ebook. I want the actual book!!!😫 Any idea how i can get one?

@DiscipleDojo - you did a review on a bible that had almost a full page list of old testament prophecies on one page and a reference to almost a full page list of the ones that had been fulfilled in the new testament on the opposite page (located toward the end of bible after Revelation). However, I have gone through your reviews and I cannot find the review you did on that bible. Do you know which bible that it was ? I would like to watch your review of that bible again.

Thank you for the review. I would love to add this bible to my collection, but it doesn't seem to be available anywhere. Please let us know when we can get a physical copy. 😃

I have the Baker Illustrated and the ESV Study Bible and honestly I think for in-depth study they are essentially equal in value. For daily reading I prefer the Fire Bible and the Dr. Jeremiah Study Bible

Out of print and unavailable on Amazon.😢😢😢

I’m still surprised that this was discontinued. Even as a Catholic, I found that this study Bible has a significant number of decent helps for scripture study. So when the local Christian bookstore was selling these for A$20 a copy new, I picked one up quick smart.

It would be wonderful if I could find one. I respect your commentary and enjoy your honest opinion. Brian R Dublin

This study study Bible seems to introduce skepticism to the scriptures whenever possible, when its scripture that should interpret scripture. I wonder if that's the reason why it was discontinued.

After this review it's impossible to find one to buy!

I searched EVERYWHERE for this Bible and it is nowhere to be found. However, I did find the CSB HOLY LAND Illustrated Bible, and I am enjoying it. If the CSB Illustrated Study Bible ever become availabe, I am on it. ❤

I prefer a translation that goes very very close to the Nestle/Aland text. I think I saw somewhere that the CSB does that. Does anyone know if that is true???

Having spent 60 years in my denomination, I only recognized one contributor name: Keener. Is this an irreversible affliction? Maybe I should broaden my horizons? Thanks for your video and recommendation.

Great Bible just went online to see if I could find it anywhere. Can’t find it anywhere. I sure would love to buy this Bible.🙌🏽✝️💯✅👍🏽😊

This is still in print, or perhaps back in print, but easily available

The Companion Bible by E.W. Bullinger is a great study bible.

Halley’s Bible Handbook is my go to & it’s pretty amazing. If you don’t have a copy I’d highly recommend it

Where could I find this Bible even used? I cannot find it for the life of me. Or is there someone who wants to sell one.

Hey, your link only goes to the ebook, and it's not even available.

I am so sad. I cannot find a used copy of this anywhere. It looks like it is still available digitally, but I really want this as a desk resource. Baker, Zondervan, why you do this?

I just got mineee!!! By the Grace of God, there is still a christian bookstore that sells a brandew copy of this here in my Country The Philippines!

I have been unable to find this bible anywhere. Every site says "out of print". It appears by the comments that others have had the same issue. Was hoping to find one.

Hey Disciple Dojo thanks so much for all your hard work on the study Bible reviews! I’m going to be buying a study Bible and wonder would this replace the Archaeological Study Bible by Zondervan you’re always ranting & raving about?

Thanks for the review. If anyone has a recommended link to purchase the non e-version this would bw most welcome.

Anyone know the isbn I'm searching for a physical copy

on this study Bible, does "broadly Evangelical" mean not only varied commentators, but would you say, the contributors in here also span many different seminaries they are associated with, or would you say most contributors in this Bible are mainly associated with one seminary?

In case anyone wanted to know. Olive Tree has this Bible available to purchase

It is out of print with limited availability.

Great video review! However there’s another Baker book that dives much deeper into Bible study with “𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝘽𝙖𝙠𝙚𝙧 𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙪𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙙 𝙗𝙞𝙗𝙡𝙚 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙮¨ book, by Gary Burge. It’s a verse by verse study book. There’s a ton of contributors in that book as well. I use it in conjunction with my 1984-NIV, 1995-NASB and/or NKJV bibles. It’s a much more in depth book than the Baker study Bible.

Alas, it seems to be out of print. There are lots of other CSB study Bibles. I wonder if any are a relabel of this one or if it's just dead.

Please review the newly-released SBL Study Bible!

Just a followup, if you know the font sizes on the text and commentary?

I'd love to get one of these for my son, but I'm having no luck at all finding a used one. Any recommendations for where to get one?

Hey! I've found CSB Baker Illustrated Study Bible but it's in BROWN with a similar little triangle on it. Is that the same thing? Everyone is saying it is out of stock but I found one new.... so much so that it's making me feel like this can't be the same thing?

Wow! Very good study Bible!

Well this video blew up. Congrats

Amazon said the book is out of print not available.

James Michael! You just popped up on my algorithm! ❤

Have you reviewed the Thompson Chain Reference study Bible?

I'd like you to cover the Geneva 1599 Bible and the notes therein as a study Bible. :)

Speaking of phased out titles, I picked up the Archaeological Study Bible from eBay, at your high recommendation. The smaller-than-usual print discourages me from delving into it as much as I’d like. And I’m not old! I’m 34 and don’t need reading glasses. Am considering purchasing a reading magnifier to put over the page of your beloved Zondervan title. In the meantime, am loving the NKJV Cultural Backgrounds Study Bible and the CSB Holy Land Illustrated Bible. I highly recommend both. I also own the ESV Archaeology Study Bible but don’t much care for it as I do those others which are more chock-full of interesting articles, break-aways, and photos. Thanks for your in-depth reviews. Have also purchased two Jay Sklar commentaries due to your interviews with him. Picked up his latest Numbers commentary and an older Tyndale commentary on Leviticus. Thanks

I looked it up the CSB is still sparsely available it appears the newer edition is in NLT as that one seems to be widely available

I have a question. I know you've stated your views on Complimentarianism and Calvinism, but I'm wondering what your view is on the Millennium of Revelation 20? I'm Premillennial myself, but I'm curious as to yours views.
