Thank you!

Hi Austin. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll look into getting that one.

Thanks Ruby!

That's a tough one. Both are good. I"ll need to compare them again.

Of course Crossway will have a reformed focus. However, it uses writers from 200+ AD. It does include early church writers- not just reformed writers.

@@BibleBuyingGuide Agreed. As I said it has value, but it also has bias that some might not be aware of so that should be mentioned in a review in my opinion. Other than that I enjoyed your video and the inclusion of similar products.

@@SaneNoMore Thank you! I appreciate it very much.

Yea I’m looking for a good bible with little bias. If they mention 2 or 3 common interpretations of an issue that is fine but it has been difficult to find a study Bible with neutral bias in the esv translation

@@youngrevival9715 Yes, the ESV study Bible leans Calvinist (but doesn’t shove it down your throat) as do all products from Crossway, but other than the mistranslation of REV 13:8 to say “before” instead of “from or since” the text itself was not altered to support their theology. The other common study Bible in ESV is MacArthur’s and that takes an even stronger stance on issues. The Archaeological Study Bible is the only other ESV one I personally own but it is focused on one subject. It is not easy to find study bibles that present different common interpretations without taking a side on at least some issues. The NIV study Bible avoids taking sides but the notes don’t go very deep and I do not like the updated translation much. The Life Application and The Cultural Background study bibles do not take strong theological stances but are focused on specific areas so they do not always address every item found in more broad study bibles. I like the NKJV study Bible from Nelson but I haven’t used it enough yet to determine any bias. Despite its leaning though the ESV Study Bible is an excellent tool for all Christians. Reading study notes or books from people who you don’t totally agree with on certain secondary issues is not a bad thing as it gets you out of an echo chamber mindset and it can make you study and be able to defend your own viewpoint better. Also we need to recognize that there are good and godly people greatly used by God who did/do not have perfect theology (we tend to define perfect theology as “that which I believe”). So long as they uphold the necessary and important tenants of biblical Christianity they are still our brothers and sisters and we should treat them as such.

If you're referring to the gold edges, that is normal.

@@BibleBuyingGuide Is it normal for nearly every page to stick together? Flipping through it almost every pages grabs the other before finally letting go. It's getting to be rather frustrating.

@@ThePaulKM that's not normal.

Similarly, I wish the notes could be published separately…maybe as a companion guide. They could be wrapped together.

Calvinism bible Arminian straight from hell

@@bibleman7757?

Where do you think the protestant reformation came from friend?

@@caleb4015 they should name this Bible, The Reformed (Calvinist) History Bible. That would be honest. Second, the Reformation started with Luther, not with Calvin. Calvinism is an aberration. Third, the Church did not start in 16th century.

@@meganotofthisworld I never said 1 of the things you just said I did. You are so blinded by your hatred towards reformed brethren that you immediately start jumping to conclusions. Calling reformed theology an aberation is laughable. Let me go back to my original statement. The protestant reformation was mostly comprised of, surprise surprise, reformed theology.

As in christians everywhere, yes. Accepting and clinging to the teachings of the apostles and of christ, and rejecting any man made dogmas given by men in funny hats who claim to be christ on earth which were bot taught by christ, his apostles, or any of the early church fathers (the bodily assumption of mary for example)

@@doomerquiet1909 , cliche' mainstream "Christianity" will not save you, leave the new world order church of Google muppetry.

It is not Catholic it is Reformed in theology but when quoting older “fathers” they were all mostly called Catholic prior to the Reformation. Like all Crossway products though you will find it has an emphasis is on Calvinist Reformers.

@@SaneNoMore , Christ said His Church would not be taken, where is your faith? You think man can prove Christ wrong?

@@joeseph6981 I have no idea how your comment relates to mine. I simply pointed out that the Bible in question has a Reformed bias as opposed to a Catholic bias.
