After looking at several study bibles I have chosen the Life Application Study bible in the NIV for my use as it is easiest for me to read and study. My wife and I have also bought several copies for friends and family. We buy the red letter edition in the leather cover so they will know it was important enough for them that we bought the best we could find. We have given this version of the Word so that not only will my friends and family have the Word of God but some of the explanations and descriptions of the events and times to go along with the text.

These explanations have made for better understanding of the times and events for me, and I believe it will for anyone. This study bible is good for the new believer and those searching. The more anyone knows and understands the Word, the better your life in the Word.

The Life Application Study Bible has helped me to become even more of a Christian than I could ever have hoped! I was basically a lost soul when it came to reading The Holy Bible KJV. I am reading the Bible in order of events as written, and I lost interest with the KJV, but when someone anonymously delivered the Life Application Study Bible to my door, I was unable to put it down! It is so easy for me to understand the words and grasp what I need to know and remember. The maps are brilliant and bright. It also has a place for your Family Tree, Marriage, Births, etc. I don't know who gave me this, I just attribute it to God, and I know whoever did this for me, knows that I will always treasure this book, FOREVER!

Becoming a Christian just recently, I wanted a really good Bible that was easy to read, fit into "our" time, and would truly explain "things" in plain english, and this IS the Bible to get..I love the NIV for all its ease and highly recommend this one specifically..God Bless from Texas..

I have had my life application bible for 3 years and I LOVE IT. The commentaries, the cross references, the introductions to each book are so helpful and stimulating. My daughter, who is 16 yrs. old, wants her own. I own and use the NASB version but she prefers the NIV. Regardless of the version, life application brings things into realistic perspective.

The study notes give a good insight into cultures of the day. The maps are frequent, useful and easy to understand. The "Harmony of the Gospels" is a wonderful addition that should be in all Bibles.
I would urge anyone who studies a lot to go for the geniuine leather instead of the bonded. It has a better feel and will hold up better. My only complaint is that the text is a bit small. Otherwise great buy. And Amazon had the best price I could find.

The Life Application Study Bible is by far the best study Bible in print. After receiving this Bible as a gift from a friend, I have not been able to part with it. It's by far my most precious Bible. Prior to receiving the Life Application Bible, I had difficulty understanding the meanings of certain biblical refrences and passages; that is until I came across the Life Application Bible. Since receiving this Bible I have recommended it to quite a few people(Skeptics), whom I might add were all quite amazed with the Life Application Bible.

This Bible contains cross-reference scriptures, biblical profiles of the men and women of the Bible. It also contains maps and a biblical dictionary/concordance, and a 365 day reading plan.

Since receiving this Bible, I have learned so many things about the Bible and how it applies to my daily life. The Life Application Bible will leave you hungry and wanting more. I guarantee you, anyone who purchases the Life Application Bible certainly won't be dissappointed.

The Life Application Bible is both versatile and comprehensive; a valuable study tool for individuals wanting to get the most out of the Bible. Filled with maps, charts, personality profiles and topical references even Bible novices can easily look up desired information in an easy and productive way. If you are looking for the perfect gift... the Life Application Bible is it.

I feel sorry for anyone who does not have a study Bible, and this one is THE BEST there is! Get the red-letter edition, and I suggest the genuine leather - only because otherwise you will wear a hardbound or "bonded-leather" (leather dust glued together) version out - because with this Bible, it is so exciting, interesting, and explainitory that you'll want to read it A LOT! I give these Bibles as gifts, and people are so amazed and excited over this Bible! JESUS IS LORD!

This Bible will help you to have a better relationship with Jesus through application notes and the questions asked in the notes. Its awesome. I love the personality profiles and charts which help me with my studies and devotions.

The book is a classic, probably the most popular study Bible on the market. Regarding bindings, there are paperback, hardcover, bonded leather, and genuine leather. Bonded leather is similar to particle board, it has a shorter life by far, and starts falling apart with regular use. Genuine leather this is not, it is bonded leather. Genuine leather will look like new for decades.
