ESV Student Study Bible

I love the ESV Student Study Bible and use it when with my fellow students.

The faux leather backing is sturdy yet flexible and this Bible lays flat great. The notes are exactly the level I was looking for and do a great job at describing the cultural context of a particular verse, other verses to refer to for the same theme, and even alternate translations of a particular word. As a rather literal translation of ancient Biblical texts this is so useful, and the ESV translation captures the poetry and beauty, but doesn't always make for light reading. You'll have to read it slowly and revisit much of what you've covered to squeeze the interpretation out of it but you won't regret it.

The delivery was quick and flawless. Even came before the actual scheduled date. The bible was what i expected and even more. Very portable easy to carry in a backpack. Imitation leather very good quality. I havent dived deep into the contents as yet but looks good from the browse. And has extrs notes etc. However i have looked at the back index where certain topics are highlighted its not in a format im used and is bit limited. Which was a bit dissapointment

Felt the cover was a bit flimsy on this. Looked better quality in the picture. Feels a bit thin. Text is a good size and easy to read. Pages inside are fine. Only slight issue is the quality of the cover.

It’s a good study Bible but lacks Matthew 17: 21 But this kind of demons are removed by fasting and prayer.

We bought this for a Christmas present and it was exactly what we wanted. It is the perfect size for taking to church and using for study a t home. Our son especially loved the two tone leather design of the cover.

This ESV Student Study Bible is a magnificent provision for anyone seeking to grow deeper in their understanding of the Holy Scriptures. The TruTone cover has a beautiful, timeless feel that is both durable and elegant, making it a perfect companion for daily study or bringing to fellowship. It is designed in a way that makes the deep truths of the Bible accessible, providing clear maps, helpful notes, and insights that illuminate the text for the next generation of believers. Psalm 119:105 tells us, "Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path," and this study Bible serves as a wonderful tool to help a student navigate that path with wisdom and clarity. I am so grateful for the craftsmanship that went into this edition, as it encourages a disciplined and joyful engagement with God's Word. It is a true blessing to have such a well-organized resource to help hide the Word in our hearts and strengthen our walk with Christ. God bless!

Molto comoda come formato, non pesa troppo ed è completamente di tutte le spiegazioni. Magari ci fosse anche in italiano

If you are getting on in life the text is very small so be prepared.

Crossway offers many options for study bibles — almost too many. They generally fall into “full” and “compact” versions. The compact reduces the amount of notes for portability. The “student” bible is one of the compact versions, aimed at students. Despite the name, I found this bible perfectly appropriate for adults and bible students of any age or profession. What makes this bible stand out is attention to detail in the content and the typography at a very approachable price. On the content side, I appreciate the amount of summarization and overview material. Including Old, New testament, a summary for each book, reviews/summaries of primary characters (e.g. Paul, Timothy, David , etc), Historical & regional summaries etc. The material is very thorough for beginners to experts. And crossway has been careful to distinguish from biblical word and non-biblical historical content. In a dense study bible, high quality Typography is very important to assist readability. Crossway does a great job using brown to distinguish diagrams, summaries, side-bars , maps and other highlights throughout each book. The bible and notes are both distinguishable type, and the paper is a good compromise of thickness and opaqueness. There’s only minimal bleed and it doesn’t affect readability for me ( i don’t use glasses). My only complaint is the lack of highlighting Christ’s word in red as found in many bibles. An acceptable setback. If you are new to the bible, the Crossway ESV Study bible is a great match for anyone . It’s a comprehensive study bible that’s also portable . And the ESV translation is both very readable and closer to a word-for-word translation than NIV. If you are on the fence , go for it. You may be using a bible app , or just curious about the bible. You’ll find so much historical and cultural influence throughout the bible. Nearly every story , every idiom, so many names of your friends and family , and so much of history has origins in the bible. Everyone should have one of these at home.
