 Amazing for all the extras! August 18, 2007

This bible is not for the faint of heart. If you would like an in-depth look at the scriptures in a historical, liturature text, NOT a literal translation, this is for you. The background articles are amazing, and present all sides of controversial arguments. Plus, a concordance, maps; this bible is for those who want more background information without paying the extra expense for a biblical atlas, commentary, handbook, and concordance.
Excellent resource August 3, 2006

This is an excellent Bible for anyone wanting to understand the archaeological, historical, and cultural aspects of God's Word. It is good for pastors, seminary students, or individuals who want to understand the deeper meanings of the Bible. It is a powerful resource for preparing sermons, Sunday school lessons, discipleship, and apologetics.
Archaeological Study Bible November 3, 2006

This is a wonderful bible, especially if you want to gain an understanding of the culture of the times in which the bible was written. It contains many photos, charts, maps and articles which are a great help in understanding the circumstances in which the bible was written. This bible is jam packed with information.
All this information causes one problem though. The print is small. I suspect this was unavoidable given the vast amount of information this bible contains. If you have difficulty reading small print, you may stuggle a bit reading the text. But I think it is still worth purchasing just for the other info. I just read the text out of another NIV bible if I plan to read extensively at one sitting.
Great Bible June 9, 2007

I love this Bible. It is very easy to read and the articles are informative and actually interesting - not dry like of lot of other study Bibles and they give alot of insight to the events and actions of the people I have always read about but had no real clue as to why they were doing what they were doing. It also shows how much of the Bible can be supported by current archaeological studies - way more than most people realize. I enjoy reading this Bible for fun, not just for study and would recommend it for anyone interested in Bible study especially if you are also interested in history, geography, culture and, of course, archaeology.

Very interesting and informative articles are embedded that add insight to life and culture in Bible times. It is a little bulky but worth it.
