ESV Study Bible, Large Print

Awesome.

The print is just the right size ( large enough to rest the bible on your legs and read) and the paper to letter contrast is impeccable. The cover is strong and the bible binding is well constructed. The notes and references are helpful. I do recommend this bible. There is one other bible to look out for.... titled: The archaeological bible, which may have more illustrations and supporting archaeological research to back up the scriptures. It is also on my wish list.

Easy to read translation with a massive amount of study material located on the same page.

Hello! I just wanted to let you know that I’ve received the item. The quality is excellent and I’m really satisfied. Thanks so much for the fast shipping and careful packaging!

So if you are like me, I always struggled reading and understanding the Bible. Someone suggested I try the ESV version and it by far has been the easiest for me to read and understand. Don’t get me wrong there’s still a lot have to learn, but this is definitely helped me get into reading the Bible more.

I bought the large print as a gift for someone and I also have the regular print one for myself. By far this is my favorite study Bible.Another family member also got the large print, both individuals said that the print size was nice and legible.If you're looking for a study Bible in general this is one that you can't go wrong in.As far as the doctrine in the notes goes, they themselves explain in the beginning that the intent was to interpret the Bible as-is, as best they could.The notes lean towards predestination, continuation of spiritual gifts (including speaking in tongues, prophecy, healing, etc.), women not being elders/senior pastors, Jesus' and Paul's respect for women, how man and woman are equal in image and value with different functions, why homosexuality is sin, and I'm sure many other topics.While I only included those main points, and the reader does not necessarily have to agree with all of the commentators, it already shows that they truly tried to be impartial. Each issue is thoroughly explained with Bible references.Throughout the notes you will also see extra biblical references and even some references to the apocryphal writings, but strictly only as historical references, not doctrinal issues, this simply proves that they used external literature in their research and study, which is helpful to know and understand.In the back there are many articles regarding different topics, from theology to biblical ethics to world religions and different "christian" sects. I will include a few titles of the different articles here.The Canon of scriptureThe ApocryphaThe reliability of the New testament manuscriptsThe reliability of the Old testament manuscriptsThe SeptuagintHomosexualityDivorce and remarriageThe end of lifeBioethics (cloning, taking life, etc)AbortionCivil GovernmentWarThe trinityAnd many others.If you found any of this interesting, it's definitely a great Bible to consider.

I've read some negative reviews and none of them are accurate, at least in my honest opinion.First, I was hesitant because of the negative reviews but once I've received it, all the negative reviews aren't relevant. Great font size, the paper is white so it's a lot easier in the eyes compared to typical bible papers and most importantly, all the Bible verses are there, and no missing pages either.Anyone considering a great bible with a quality, this is it. Worst case scenario you have 30 days to return it but I highly doubt you'll return it by the quality unless you have a different reason.

Love this Bible!-large, bold print that make it easier for those who have a harder time seeing.-excellent resource section-lots of background info-even more maps/diagrams/etc than you’d think! Can’t recommend enough!
