A review of Thomas Nelson's "The Bible Study Bible" in the New King James Version (NKJV). This volume, containing the 66 books of the Protestant canon, is bound in saddle brown Leathersoft (ISBN 9780785253358, Style# 8853BRN). The words of Christ are in black.
This edition features a study guide for every chapter in the Bible, designed for use in group discussions. The goal is to deepen each participant's understanding of the text and to encourage application. Study guides are printed in a 9 pt sans serif font.
The text is printed in two 64 mm wide columns, organized into paragraphs, with in-text headings and chapter numbers printed in blue. No cross references or text and translation notes are present.
The 9.5 point Comfort Print text is attractively printed with adequate line spacing. Variations in print darkness (fading) are common but not extreme.
The volume is large, measuring 9 5/8 x 6 11/16 x 1.83 inches in dimensions. Margins are narrow: The outer margin is between 12 and 14 mm wide.
Book introductions are included, and a 127 page concordance appears in the back of the volume. Printed in an 9 point font in two columns, the concordance lists about 3800 key words.
The roughly 36 gsm paper is sufficiently opaque, and show-through (ghosting) is not an issue. The paper is almost white, with a pink tinge and a somewhat glossy surface.
The volume is sewn and lies open in Genesis. Page edges are covered in gold.
Two 10 mm wide ribbon markers are provided, one black, one gold. Head and tail bands are brown.
The two-tone imitation leather cover features a line of stitching along the edge. The construction is paste-off/paste-down, with a decorated brown paper liner.
Seven color maps are located in the back. This edition was printed in China.

I appreciate your Study Bible Study on this Bible Study Bible. It's reassuring to know that study Bibles are now focused on studying the Bible and not on whatever they were supposedly doing until now. Great name there, guys. I guess "Group Study Bible" was too obvious. "Study to study the Bible in a Bible study with your study Bible." - Epistle of Thomas Nelson

Another excellent review, thank you Dr. Jones. I always look forward to watching. It looks like a beautiful bible, and I appreciate the simplified layout. If I personally was in the market though, I think for the money there are options that serve better for long term study. Whatever gets one excited about getting into the word though.. God bless you.

I really enjoy your channel. For one, you have a soft, soothing voice. Second, you really go into deep detail about the bibles you review. I mean, you don't just talk about the dimensions, the physical characteristics and the layout of the bible (one or two column, paragraph style or verse by verse, cross references and footnotes, typeface or font), you talk about the number of characters per line, the width of the margins- things other bible reviewers don't mention. And third, what I like about your channel is, you seem to stay away from reviewing premium bibles and focus mainly on bibles that most people can afford. Nothing against other bible review channels, like Tim Wildsmith, A Nickel's Worth Bible Reviews, A Frisch Perspective, Cat Woods, etc. Those are all great channels, but I wish there were more channels like yours that focused less on premium bibles and more on affordable bibles. There are a lot of affordable bibles online that are great and look awesome.

@RGrantJones 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for that kind comment, J. Woodbury! I do prefer to review affordable Bibles. Although I own a few premium Bibles, I find that I rarely use them, simply because they are so expensive and I don't want to damage them. My goal is to help people find Bibles they'll want to use.

@j.woodbury412 10 месяцев назад

@@RGrantJones That makes sense. I think I would be the same way if I had any premium bibles, which I don't, and that's okay with me. I can't imagine spending $200-$300 on a premium bible, when my $95 Leathersoft KJV Center Column Reference bible works just fine. Of course if someone wants to gift me with a $200 or $300 bible from someone like, say, Humble Lamb", I wouldn't turn it down. I mean, I wouldn't want to be rude and hurt their feelings...lol

@hassanmirza2392 11 месяцев назад

Will it be correct to assume that Protestant Biblical scholarship, whether liberal-critical or conservative, is much ahead of the Catholic scholarship? Catholics also have both liberal and conservative scholars now who produce study bibles and commentaries. But I think Protestant scholarship is higher in quality and volume compared to the Catholic one, at least in English language.

@dino575 11 месяцев назад

Another wonderful review - Not a Bible I would personal invest in - and the name a little confusing ;-) The Bible Study Bible - but very interesting nonetheless thank you as always for putting these together. Just about to watch your Catholic St Joseph Bible review now )

Is it just me or does this study bible remind anyone of an bare-bone elementary level combination of The Reformation Study Bible and MacArthur Study Bible?

@PrentissYeates 10 месяцев назад

Without references I simply do not know how it could be termed a study Bible. I prefer side column references or center column references, the bottom referenced bible are appealing to the eye but not practical in usage. Good review.

I've heard of it, but I haven't spent much time examining it. I understand it's an update of the ASV.

@edwardgraham9443 11 месяцев назад

This sort of remind me of the Open Bible or something similar to the Life Application Study Bible. I rather like it. The name is interesting to say the least, but can be a mouthful to say. I think the premise of this Bible is to let the reader do their own thinking as opposed to follow what some Bible scholar says. This way you don't grapple with denomknal biases or study notes geared toward shy particular theological standing. I prefer these types of Bibles. For me on a personal note, my ideal Bible would be something similar to this. No study notes, just the full set of translation footnotes, a topical index instead of a concordance and book introductions. But this is not a bad idea in my estimation. Thank you for sharing this. P. S. I'm wondering if Thomas Nelson is shifting away from China to South Korea for their printing like Lockman Foundation seem to have done with the 2020 updated NASB.

@RGrantJones 11 месяцев назад

"I'm wondering if Thomas Nelson is shifting away from China to South Korea for their printing." I hope they're gradually moving out of the PRC. The next Nelson Bible I intend to review was printed in India, like the NKJV Sovereign Collection Wide-Margin Reference Bible. Thanks for commenting, Edward!

@@RGrantJones For me as a non American, it doesn't bother me one bit of the Bibles are printed in China. Americans seem to bothered for one reason or another, some even hypocritical in my opinion, but at the end of the day, these Bible publishers are Americans after all. As long as it doesn't raise the prices of the Bible to Jongbloed prices I'm fine with wherever they are made.

@RGrantJones Месяц назад

I think that depends on what you're looking for in a study Bible. Personally, I don't have much use for it.

@mlj6293 11 месяцев назад

The print is way too light. All the new bibles are terrible. Make a Bible with thick print so you can see it. Stop making cheap Bibles with lousy print. I have to buy old Bibles because the print ink is so thin on all new Bibles. Who is charge ? These Bibles suck.

@scripturequest 11 месяцев назад

I’ve bought lots of new Bibles and I’ve always been really happy with the standard. My only gripe is the incorrect textual basis for many parts of the Old Testament.
