The ESV Study Bible was recommended to me while I was at camp, and when I got home, I bought one. When it came in, I was shocked at the size of that thing! But man, is it awesome! It is sooooo helpful for inductive Bible Studies! It has like three pages of context, plus an outline, for each book! On a page, like 1/3 of it will be verses, and the rest of the page will be filled up with notes. It has like a summery of the section or idea you read, plus a breakdown of every verse complete with awesome deffinitions and explainations. There is so much meat in there you could spend an hour on two paragraphs! I am currently studying James, and i just spent an hour revisiting the verses we covered at camp!
All this is to say that i totally recommend an ESV Study Bible to anyone who is serious about God's word and really wants to go deeper. It makes inductive Bible Studys super easy too!

ReplyDeleteHannah,
ReplyDeleteThat is so awesome to hear! I fell in love with the ESV Study Bible when i was at Sky Ranch. As soon as I got home I ordered one from Mardel, and I actually got it like a week ago. It has been so helpful when digging into the word. I've been reading and meditating on Psalm 19:14 lately, and there is just so much you can squeeze out of it! So I definately second this post and believe everyone should have a ESV Study Bible!
Your Brother-n'-Christ,
