Its commitment to biblical accuracy, historical context, and doctrinal precision makes it an essential tool for pastors, teachers, and serious students of Bible.

Feels great to the touch! Excellent commentary from a proven SOLID and time-tested Biblical scholar/theologian. This study bible has phenomenal tools and attributes such as NOT having red-letter print for Jesus' words. At FIRST I was a little disappointed, but as I began studying, it actually made the text come to life even MORE. Almost as if you're reading the original text. You pay MORE attention to WHO'S speaking, causing you to pull MORE out of the text. To my surprise, I like this more than the red-letter Bibles, I've read previously. Also, the commentary is an excellent tool to aid in referencing related scriptures, as well as providing insight into details of, cultural, time-period related things, etc, that, otherwise, may not be understood. I highly recommend.

I can scarcely believe that I own a Bible like this. It's something you want to get early in life and use it until you have no life. It's truly beautiful, and the supple goatskin leather cover makes it a pleasure to hold and to smell. I wanted a genuine leather Bible so that it would lay open easily and not close on itself. It does that. The paper is pure Quality with a capital Q The 9.5 font is smaller than I would like, but it is dark black on the white pages, and easy to read. I was hoping to get a large=print Bible and investigated a number of them, but what they call large-print is actually only between an 11.5 and 12 font, maybe 12.5. That's not large print. It does not have thumb page-finders but honestly, I've had them, and they're not worth it. Your Bible ends up looking years older than it is when the pages get frayed from the thumb page-finders. And here's a little piece of advice: do not waste your time or money on those DIY indexes. The pages to which they get attached rip quickly, and when you are through taping them back on, your bible looks like it came from a yard sale -- in 1903. This is a Study Bible and then some. In his inimitable way, there is nothing MacArthur doesn't cover. The layout makes it the easiest Bible I've ever used for cross-referencing, and looking up anything, including maps, timelines, charts, and fascinating comments and facts. I was hoping to get a red- or blue-letter Bible to delineate Jesus' words from the rest of the text, but alas, it is not. You will want to have enough money to buy a cover with a handle immediately because it is large and somewhat heavy -- certainly unwieldy. Without a carrying case, it would be difficult to negotiate walking any distance with it if you had other things to carry. I started reading mine immediately, from Page 1, because all the preliminary information and introductions are tantalizing, and much more extensive than you would find in an ordinary Bible. Getting through just the peripheral information is almost like taking a seminary course, much less getting to the actual scriptures. I regret I didn't have this magnificent Bible decades ago.

My favorite Bible yet! What an outstanding journey, I have experienced with this Study Bible! John MacArthur packs over 50 years of wisdom into easy-to-understand notes that help bring Scripture to life. This updated 2nd edition is filled with clear verse-by-verse insights, helpful book introductions, reading plans, concordance, articles, maps and charts, etc. ..etc...that make my Bible feel more accessible than ever. His thorough research, and ability to present Biblical truths in an impactful, yet non threatening way is remarkable! An incredible tool to change your life... the price is a GIFT.. worth so much more!

Very nice study bible. Copious notes and explanations on every page with a ton of valuable information.

Nice Study Bible. I like the notes and the translation of the 1995 NASB used by n this Bible. Good reference to have

This and the LSB MacArthur study Bible are my go to Bibles. The details in the notes are incredible. The cross references and everything make it hard to put down. I have to force myself to stop reading so I can go to work. I catch myself spending 2 or more hours straight and passing time so easily in this growing deeper and deeper in my walk with Christ.

The print is not large print, but very comfortable to read with trustworthy commentary by MacArthur. The high quality of the cover, pages, and binding indicate a beautiful and durable NASB bible which will last many years.

Perfect! and fast delivery!
