NET Bible Full Notes Edition - An Honest Review (of a text-critical Bible!) 

I’m not 46 years old. I’ve been in ministry for 29 years. I’ve pastored for 9 years and planted a church. Going into church replanting and revitalization ministry while pastoring. I stumbled upon the NET Bible Full-Notes Edition a few months back. I’ve fallen in love with it. I do use it as my main Bible and I preach from it. I believe it is an easier read and I love the notes.

The NET Bible is generous is some unique ways! Having the full notes version free on my phone is incredible. But their open copyright policy takes this to the next level! I do scripture readings and have previously used the WEB for a full-book recording due to its public domain license. Now the NET is definitely on my radar for this. Thank you!

Very helpful, thanks!

I actually use it as a reader because it is simple but when I'm interested in a verse I will go to the notes. Best of both worlds.

Got it - love it so much. I love the translation when free reading. I love the notes when I want more info. It is also in my Logos Library. Love it!

Great review. Thank you!

Excellent review!! I ordered the NET Bible with full study notes and look forward to it arriving in the next few days. I ordered it primarily for the study notes as demonstrated in your review. I believe it will be a great help in diving deep into the scriptures. My primary Bible translations are LSB, NKJV and NASB 95.

I added a bookmark to the NET Bible on my laptop. Have been doing a lot of copying and pasting from Biblegateway for the past for months. I noticed there are notes-commentary on the text on the right hand side of the screen. I appreciate your insight and review.

Thanks for the review, I will use this with my Novum Testamentum Graece. Bless you, sir.

Brilliant Brilliant Bible. I have the exact Bible Grey Cloth. I will rebind my NET bible personally in the future when the spine begins to break. I have also the NET on my phone.

Very Good commentary. I have a print edition of NET Study Bible.

Excellent review! I followed NET from the beginning.

A useful translation especially if you have spent any time with the original languages. There's a good demonstration of the various kinds of fool in proverbs and other Hebrew Wisdom books showing some important distinctions from the Simple to the Irredeemable. Excellent resource. MikeInMinnesota

Hey, thanks for the review of the NET BIBLE. I like your videos. Always keep on making videos. It helps many people. *I am on my way completing a translation of the Bible with other people who knows the languages of the Bible .*

I got mine yesterday. If you are over 40, guaranteed you are underestimating how small the print is. I now have a pair of glasses that will just stay with the Bible.

I would love a review on theNET Timeless Truth Bible

Do you know what is the difference in the full notes second edition from the first?

At 10:06, you're missing the link to the wonderwoman video you reference...

Greetings to you. I am acquiring the full notes NET edition. I am glad you pointed out 1 Cor. 14:34. I have not seen your other videos yet, but look forward toward them. But when I consider study Bibles in general, I find notes lacking in providing basics...such as in the Greek, women and wives are the same Greek word, likewise, men and husbands are the same Greek words. I spent a lot of time studying this verse out and 1 Tim 2:12 and to the end of the chapter. In 1 Cor 14:34 gaining understanding of the Greek words, one can see that if what is meant in that verse are the wives likely with their children, perhaps calling to their husbands from the balcony "in their new found freedom in Christ" Paul is saying to ask their husbands at home. I can imagine that Paul was trying to bring order into the new church. I do not believe this was a proclamation to be silent as a doctrine, for then one has to delete a lot of verses out of Psalms and even in the NT. Even Eph. 4:8 tells us that where "men" is in that verse, actually means "human beings". It is like Romans 16, per Phoebe, Paul calls her "Deacon" not deaconess. He is giving her prominence. Or like Junia some verses down. People have added "s" to her name to make her into a man in order to call these two people apostles. Notice that in so many translations they do not want to name her an apostle. It is apparent that these two were husband and wife, and her name could even be called "Julia". So, some translations even then if making her a woman will state then they are "known among" the apostles. Only a few translations I know of, give her the title she deserves. But that is also going on in Psalms 68:11. According to what I discovered per commentary and other, most English translations do not say there Women Preachers or Women Evangelists or even women or females. It is very sad, but true. For a commentary even says "make it what you will but in the Hebrew it says Women Preachers." I could go on and on. But I am grateful for all that the Lord Jesus has shown me. There is much. Also, I have heard in a Bible Study that in Genesis, the help meet or helper per the woman, is actually in the Hebrew "one like himself". And that is very important because "Adam is a type of Christ". There is a deeper layer going on that is amazing. It was never an us and them thing, a racist thing, etc., but a one thing. God bless you in Jesus' Name.

You should also do a review on how to save money on book shelves. You have a good idea for shelves. My roommate at college made the same kind of shelves. We didn't have much money back then.

Hey James. Wonderful reviews. Got to see all your videos after your comment on my post on Nerdy Biblical Language majors. But i think u missed the pop up for professor wonder woman😁

Has anyone done a review of the Logos Complete Study Bible, also known as the Logos International Study Bible. This American Standard Version (ASV)? I really like it although its quite dated.... the notes and the readings & renderings are excellent...

7:53 - One of the greatest puns ever said and you didn't even notice! 🤣🤣

I wanted to thank you for explaining to me “ textual criticism,textual apologetics,and exegesis” I never heard them words but that what i have been doing and have found a ton on my own lol. GOD sent me to your site. I am an uneducated fool looking for truth and i think i found my new “master teacher” LOL only problem is like to use the KING,NASB,NET Full notes with concordance on all so its really not a problem lol try not to judge me because i like the KING lol . I really enjoyed 3 of your videos So far lol. Even more the comments

I'll like to make a note about the notes. lol From the perspective that people in the early days also had their own interpretation of earlier scriptures, could it be that Paul also did his own interpretation? Meaning that he interpretet Gen 2:18 as a reason to have women be worth less than men, and that this is being pointed out by the note?

As a person with terrible eyesight, I have to pass on this. I was very interested in picking this up until I saw the font size...

"if you don't know what minuscules are" - i do, but i guess i didn't know how to pronounce them. Wow, the first translation i've seen that passed my litmus test - Hosea 13:14. In a context full of curses, that verse is _not_ about rescue!

The difference in notes on Adam and eve, are contrast to pre-sin/post-sin. Eve was to be a helper, and since she did not help, now we see the curses of the world, given by God, and also a hiarchy standard of God, His ordained order of life. We can see the curses of man, and curses of woman, outside of Christ, and How God brings those curses into submission to one another through perfect submission to God. No longer threatened or inferior by the nature of sin, [working against ourselves and eachother in unorderly competition of dominance] but being freed by it in Christ, and humbly serving and respecting our [own and one anothers] positions, signifying perfect love for Christ through harmony, in reflection of our position as bride of Christ Himself.

They are not "study notes." They are "textual notes."
