Indispensable resource for Bible study
931181
Straight-forward and concise insight from among the most gifted Scriptural scholars in the world today.  Wonderfully comprehensive in showing how "the New Covenant is concealed in the Old, and the Old is revealed in the New." Many unique extras, such as key Word Studies, and Indexes to Jesus's metaphors, miracles, maps, etc. My rating of 4 vs. 5 stars is based solely on the somewhat cumbersome navigation through Kindle; the content rates a "6"! Longingly awaiting Dr. Hahn to publish an Old Testament version!

I am truly impressed by this concordance. It seems exhaustively researched and will be a true asset for anybody who needs a good way to look up words and cross-references in the Bible. The books and verse references for each word are easy to see and it is actually pretty interesting to find places where a particular word is used frequently that we might not expect. In this way, it opens up the Bible to the casual browser as well as the serious researcher. Be aware that this is for the RSV translation of the Catholic Bible.

I highly recommend the "Helping Kids Understand the Bible Bible Study for Kids!" student workbook!! As a mother and an educator, I can't imagine a better "must-have" resource for my children to have on their bookshelf.  This amazing study enables school-age children who are at any stage in their journey with the Lord (from never hearing anything to being well-versed in the Word), to see, hear, and understand who God is, what He has done, and how His sacrifice has made all the difference for each of us!  It is a great gift that also serves as a tool for parents or grandparents to use and share with their children or grandchildren because it's fun, interactive approach is organized in a manageable way as it takes you through the Bible.  Anyone who has it will surely be blessed by it, and I wish I could have given it SIX STARS!

I read this book in manuscript form and believed it would be helpful to a lot of people, especially those who read the Bible and, for reasons that I find unfathomable, come away with all sorts of strange ideas about what it says.  A few days ago, I read the published book and am even more convinced that this succinct and power-packed resource should be read by everyone even remotely interested in understanding scripture.  Its author writes in an easy-to-understand style, and along the way includes all sorts of examples of sloppy and uninformed reasoning that he's observed over the years.  If you think in terms of value--defined as benefits minus costs--the slim price of this volume is far outweighed by its considerable benefits, and it is therefore of great value.

This new book by Joel is an essential study for all Christians who wish to gain insight into the fast approaching prophetic times. Joel presents a very thorough and sound case from the Scriptures in projecting an eschatological model which is grounded in reality. Joel has a profound way of harmonizing the prophetic Scriptures, giving his readers an understandable concept of what will take place before Jesus returns to this earth. Joel's vast knowledge of Islam gives readers the tools needed to unlock many puzzling passages in the Scriptures.  Joel's commitment to the Biblical text throughout the book demonstrates a priority in being faithful to what God has revealed, taking the grammar and Historical context of these passages into consideration allowing readers to understand these texts from the original writer's perspective. This book gives some sobering warnings for the church in the times to come yet at the same time provides a firm foundation of knowledge for Christians to store in their hearts so that they can be readily prepared to endure until the end of this age.

The ESV Study Bible is the best study Bible currently on the market. Alongside the English Standard Version as its text, the most accurate word-for-word translation to date, the thousands of study notes, charts, articles, and maps make this work a veritable library of biblical scholarship. One needs only to consult the list of theological contributors, a virtual "who's who" among contemporary scholars, to see that some of the best minds have collaborated to give the church this incredible gift in one volume. As a pastor, it is my desire to see this Study Bible come into the hands of every family in my church. I use it daily in the preparation of my sermons and expositions, and ethusiastically recommend it to anyone who is serious about doing studying the Scriptures.

Bob Cornwall's text on Ephesians makes Paul's Letter come alive.  The text integrates study, reflection, group questions, prayer, and other spiritual practices.  This book is an invaluable resource for personal and group bible study.  This text cuts across theological and denominational perspectives (liberals as well as conservatives can appreciate the approach to the text)and is accessible to persons of various levels of education.  Holistic in nature, the text joins head and heart for personal and congregational spiritual transformation.  It is a great resource for Lent and other seasons of the year.

I purchased a copy of this several years ago and have used it almost on a weekly basis! Not often do you add something to your library that is of such value that you'll refer to it in your studies but also you'll copy it's pages as handouts in your Bible study classes and Sunday School! Many facts, figures and charts are in one handy place which saves you time in research. I highly recommend you get a copy now and you'll wonder why you've been without one as long as you have!

I can't recommend this Bible enough for anyone interested in apologetics.  There are a wealth of articles that will be very helpful to the beginner in apologetics (it takes three pages just to list the title and author of each article).  Also, it contains profiles of some of the greatest historical defenders of the faith, and has references throughout to "Twisted Scriptures," which explain how certain cults,etc. completely "twist" the particular Scripture to make it fit their theology even though contextually it isn't possible.  Also uses the Holman Christian Standard Bible translation, and I find that the more I use that translation, the more I like it (especially since I am learning Greek).  This is my favorite study Bible I own.  In fact, I find it so useful that I have given three of them away to others in hopes it would help them learn and grow in the Christian faith.  I am on my fourth one!  Also of great value is an "Annotated Bibliography In Apologetics, Religious Pluralism, and New Religious Movements" by Douglas Groothuis.  He gives a 10 page recommended resource list for those interested in apologetic issues.  There is also, included in the section with the maps, a time line of apologists and notable works which is really nice as well.  Again, this is my study Bible of choice and I certainly recommend it to anyone interested in apologetics!

God's Word is always true and righteous, and now in the latest edition of the New King James Version Study Bible, you can delve into the Word with more confidence and understanding.  This latest edition is in fact "The Complete Resource for Studying God's Word", as indicated on the front cover.
  This edition is in full color with a complete Concordance, for looking up any information about the Scripture you are studying, as well as a section of maps, which gives the reader a better understanding of the area or areas involved with any particlar book and event.
  The New King James Version Study Bible is a wonderful resource for Preachers, Teachers in developing Bible Studies and Classes. I'd like to take this time to Thank Thomas Nelson publishers/BookLovers. for the opportunity to read and review this selection.  I have already utilized this edition in preparing a Bible Study for our Men's Group at my church and look forward to continuing to use the NKJV Study Bible in for future for exploring God's Word.  This selection is a must for any Christian Library and well as great reference guide for Preachers, and Bible Teachers alike.

This is the only resource of its kind for studying Paul's Letter to the Romans. While there is no shortage of commentaries and articles on Romans, this workbook allows students to discover Paul's message for themselves and see just how much redemptive history Paul has packed into this incredible letter. Romans can be a daunting and complex book. By setting it in the chronological framework of redemptive history, readers can get a better grasp on the vast scope of salvation history beginning with God's plans made in eternity.

The questions posed in each chapter ask the student to state in their own words what Paul is communicating in a passage of Romans. This is a very useful feature because while commentaries are helpful (and in the introduction Dr. Berding recommends going through the workbook with a commentary or two at hand), they are not a substitute for first-hand knowledge and engagement with the biblical text. The section at the end on "How Would You Answer Paul's Questions?" brings Romans to bear more directly upon the reader's life. With 24 questions taken right from Romans, each with a restatement by Dr. Berding, Paul confronts the student with questions that call for careful reflection and self-examination. Here is one example:

"Or do you presume on the riches of his kindness and forbearance and patience, not knowing that God's kindness is meant to lead you to repentance? (2:4) How quick are you to respond to God's grace and to repent when you have done wrong?"

This workbook would be great for classes, Bible studies, or small groups working through the Letter to the Romans. Readers who are more familiar with the Bible will learn much and be edified, but also I think that with some help from an experienced teacher, this workbook would serve as an excellent introduction to the gospel and the storyline of Scripture as whole for those who are just beginning to study the Bible.

I am pleasantly surprised by this handbook. John MacArthur did a masterfully wonderful job researching and combining his sermons together to write this great book.

This is not your typical Bible handbook like "Nave's". Instead the MacArthur "Handbook" is like what you would find in a study Bible at the beginning of each book of the Bible. BUT the MacArthur "Handbook" goes into far more detail.

This indepth MacArthur Bible handbook gives you an "Introduction to the Bible", "How We Got The Bible", and "How to Study the Bible". It also gives you an indepth book-by-book examination of all 66 books of the Bible.

Not only that, this MacArthur handbook also has much to offer by examining each of the 66 books by its author, the date approximately written, the meaning of each book, background and settings, key people, key words, key doctrines, interpretive challenges, God's Character, book outline, answers to tough questions, and how to further study each book. As well as there is "A Harmony of The Gospels", "Introduction to the Intertestamental Period", "Overview of Theology", and too much more to state here.

This is an excellent resource for anyone studying the Bible and is a must have in any library.
