5.0 out of 5 stars Just God and you, July 23, 2002

This review is from: The New Inductive Study Bible (International Inductive Study Series) (Bonded Leather)

I have several study Bibles for various reasons. The best that I have for me to learn the Bible with is this one. The approach is the best that I have found. One of the things that I was told by my brother, Wally, when I got my first study Bible was to remember that the comments were from men and therefore open to error. With The New Inductive Study Bible, there are no comments from men. There is only the Word of God. Therefore, no error. This Bible has you and God get the meaning together. And I mean God. There is no way to understand the Bible without God. Kay Arthur stresses that point also. The beginning section of this Bible is about the Inductive Study method. She explains to you what it is and how it works. The process is also called "exegesis", which means "to draw out". With this method, you are drawing out the meaning of the passage. You are not being told what it means. She also shows you some ways to mark your Bible to help you get the meaning better. (I thought that I would be hit with lightning the first time I marked in my Bible.) She shows you a couple of methods of doing so from a sample passage of the Bible in this section with the marks on the passage. She carefully walks you through the Inductive Study method and what each part is. The next section is a brief overview of Israel's spirtual life. This helps you to understand what is going on. She also shows you the Tabernacle and the two Temples. There is also a timeline included. The Bible portion has an introduction to each book of the Bible. This gives you information about the author (if known), date, some historical background and such. At the end of each book is a chart for you to put the chapter themes, the book's theme and the key words to look for. This Bible has wide margins to make notes in and the pages are thicker than onion skin. This is good because your pen (and use only a ball point pen) doesn't bleed through. There is also a center column cross-reference that also has alternate meanings of words or the literal translation of words. The only thing that I didn't like was not having Jesus' words in red. But then that would detract from the Inductive Study method. The "Helps" section at the back is very helpful. There are some historical articles, grammatical articles, maps (and maps and charts in the Bible portion itself also) and much more. And there is a concordance. All in all, for really learning God's Word and making it a part of you, I have not found a better Bible. As I said, I have several study Bibles and have found this to be the best for getting the Word of God into me. The other study Bibles that I have are good for what I bought them for. But I have found no better Bible for getting it to be God teaching me His Word.

I have never been one to just sit and read the Word. I have purchased MANY bibles in the past and none of them seemed to fit. Are you like me? Have you purchased upwards of 10 bibles in hopes one of them will light your fire to understand the Word of God? If so, this bible might just be your answer; it was mine.

This bible is fantastic. I love actually being able to mark in it. I love being taught what to mark, when to mark and how to mark. I love being able to see the difference for myself and not have everything explained to me.

As a testament to how great this bible is, I was up at 7 a.m this morning and did not finish reading/working this bible until almost 8:30 a.m. That has never happened. And let me tell you something, the time flew by!

If you have been searching for that perfect fit bible, give this one a read.

It was the answer to my prayers.

This is by far the best and most beautiful Bible and Study Bible I have ever come across.
As someone alse said after receiving this one all others become obsolete and pale in comparison
