This is the most interesting version of the Bible I have ever read. I have learned so very much from the narratives which truly explain what is written, in "layman's" terms. If you haven't got this Bible, you need to get it!

1.0 out of 5 stars Is this Study Bible right for you?, April 30, 2004

-------------------------------------------
Is this Study Bible right for you?
-------------------------------------------

Choosing a Bible is very personal and often emotional decision. There are so many different Study Bibles because each takes a different approach.

The Life Application Study Bible has earned a wide following with its excellent charts, diagrams, and tables.

Other Study Bibles such as the NIV Study Bible attempt to be as factual as possible in their commentary. Its study notes try to explain references and historical context. They do not attempt to apply God's message to your life. They try to provide facts to help you build your own personal relationship with God.

The LA Study Bible's dust jacket claims something very different from the rest:

"...Its notes not only explain difficult passages and give background information about bible life and times, but they go a step further - they also show how God's Word speaks to every situation and circumstance of your life..."

If you want to consider a variety of opinions, you might consider doing an Amazon search in Books for "William Barclay." His books often present a number of opinions, often from opposing points of view. The LA Study Bible viewpoint is sometimes one of the most extreme.

If you want to be told one perspective to apply to your life, the LA Bible may be perfect for you.

If you want to find your own personal relationship with God, you might want a more objective and informational commentary such as the NIV Study Bible or other Study Bibles.

The NIV Study Bible might also be one to consider if you want a basic Subject Index or Concordance included. The NIV is also available in a rugged hardcover version like a college textbook or a less expensive paperback version. The LA Bible's dust jacket may not hold up as well to wear and tear. Also the NIV Study Bible has twice as many study notes and footnotes.

Whatever you decide, the most important thing is to read any Bible!

3.0 out of 5 stars Not the Best Study Bible, March 14, 2003

I've always liked how the King James Bible sounded, and this Bible does a good job of making it entertaining. Unfortunately the strength of the actual translation is killed, and unfortunately this bible has no soul to be saved, because of the actual study notes which are pretty silly at times. They try to remain non-demoninational but seem to be courting towards the Moderate-Conservative Christians the closer you get to the Gospels. Which I don't praticuarlly like, but then again, I'm not a mainstream Christian, so I shouldn't much complain.
