I bought this Evangelical Study Bible in the Brown leathersoft. I have many many study Bibles Randy A Brown & right now, this is my absolute favorite. I love everything about this Bible. Thanks for reviewing it. I enjoy your Bible reviews so very much. God bless you Randy. 💜✝️🙏🏻😊

[@BibleBuyingGuide]

Thank you!!

[@einarengemoen2486]

Hi Rosalyn! Is it anything in particular that makes you like this study bible more than others? Like layout, paper, binding, notes…?

[@rubywalters194]

Randy you did another amazing review on this bible.

[@BibleBuyingGuide]

Thanks Ruby!!

[@willydihar2418]

Beautiful revival of the Full Color NKJV Study Bible. Thanks so much for the review 😀

[@PaulH581]

Are the notes updated? The format looks very similar. I already have the NKJV Full Color Edition and I’m wondering if there is any reason to also get this one.

[@willydihar2418]

@@PaulH581 Sorry for the late reply. Honestly I still don't have the Evangelical Study. I reviewed a sample online focusing on the notes and they're practically the same. Yup, I also have the Full Color NKJV Edition 🙂

[@DanS-kh4tc]

One thing that I think that is missing in this format is an index to all of the articles and in text maps. The way it is now you just have to see them as your studying or browsing.

[@BibleBuyingGuide]

Good point.

[@reginajames5107]

This is a beautiful Holy Bible. Bless the Word of the Lord.

[@carmennooner2027]

I am a NKJ fan and I love archeology. This Bible is not needed, but one I could be persuaded to buy, if the price was right. The only thing missing, for me, is margin space. I have learned to work around this issue, though it's time consuming. I also rely on a good concordance so I might have to take a closer look at this Bible and perhaps put it in my Wish List. Thank you for another great review. :)

[@tony.biondi]

Thank you, Randy

[@super60sand70s]

I like all the colors on the pages.

[@crucifiedlife9700]

I don't use the NKJV as much as I use the ESV, but this review may cause me to purchase this bible for the study notes. Great review as usual RAB!

[@reneallen8302]

Randy you did a great job on this Review. I'll have to pick this one up. I have "The Evangelism Study Bible". Have you a Review on that one too? 🌺🌄

[@BibleBuyingGuide]

Thanks Rene! I haven't reviewed that one. I'll see if I can get it.

Hello Sir Randy, May I request if you can also review the recently published NKJV Bible Study (Study Bible). Very much appreciated Sir. God bless you and more power. 🙏🙏🙏💕💕💕

[@mendyhand3895]

Randy, Would you say that the Foundation NKJV Study Bible would be in “the middle” of the other two you just showed, concerning notes? I really am trying to narrow it down to Evangelical or Foundations. I need large font. And prefer NKJV. (Red letter, Capitalized pronouns for Deity). 36 GSM sounds great… thx so much for your reviews and time. Oh. Is the leather similar to Single Column wide margin? I have that. Pretty good. Thx!

[@einarengemoen2486]

Thanks again 👍

[@JesusIsLord-hk8xj]

I ordered this bible today. Even though I mostly use the KJV. I like what I saw and the print is good.

[@TheBibleReviewer]

Ah 36gsm! I knew it seemed like a really nice thickness!

[@einarengemoen2486]

How would you say that it would influence the the notes that it’s made by Liberty. I Googled and saw that this is a huge Southern Baptist university, but I’m just trying to learn and pick up a little here and there about the US denominations. Like how would one notice difference in these notes from let’s say the Mac Arthur s.b. or the ESV s.b. not to say the Dake. Even - would it be differences in theology/focus from the Holman study bibles (ex KJV full color s.b.)?

[@EternallyRavenous]

I also looked this up. Am in the US and physically handled one of these bibles in the bookstore before doing any real basic research. It's a real nice Bible with apologetics, archeology etc, but I'm still trying to figure out the contributors given there appears to be a bit of scandal around Liberty U.

[@pkmcnett5649]

The notes are probably similar to the MacArthur and the ESV study Bibles. All of them have Calvinist leanings.

[@EternallyRavenous]

I sent the ESV back that I received yesterday. Small print. I won't own a bible with someone's name on it. MacArthur, Tony Evans. The publisher's name on the spine is typical and I'm not referring to that. I tend to have a bias against highly published Christian writers who are still alive, although I'm sure there are a couple of exceptions. To be honest, I wouldn't be able to tell you what Calvanism is. @@pkmcnett5649

[@Yaas_ok123]

​@@EternallyRavenousReflecting God study bible is non-reformed/calvinistic. It has weslian view on notes. Must have non-reformed book is Adam Harwood's Christian theology. Hi from Finland !

[@1CarrieRoberts]

This bible is a great bible for studying When he speaks of the belief of those who produced this bible, let me clarify. Evangelicals believe in the pre- tribulation rapture as well as Jesus dying for All who will surrender to Him as Lord. Also after the rapture are in heaven with Jesus during the 7 year tribulation and we will return with Him as He rules and reigns for 1000 years in Jerusalem. That's the pretty basic prophetic standpoint of this bible. The Word of God has been rightly divided and the commentary will line up with that. You can look up the man Ed Hindson, he has passed on but he was a great teacher of the Word and helped get this bible out before he passed. Hope this helps.

[@joest.eggbenedictus1896]

Why is this called an "evangelical" study Bible and not the Liberty study Bible (like the Baylor study Bible or the like)? Since when does Liberty of all places get to define what is evangelical?

[@crucifiedlife9700]

Just a question for you though. Is it worth purchasing when I already use the TCR with all of the references they have?

[@williamburns1906]

How similar is the Evangelical Study Bible to the KJV Study Bible?

[@eclipsesonic]

From what I can gather, it has the same study notes. The main difference are the amount of pictures present in the NKJV Evangelical Study Bible Vs the KJV Study Bible.

[@quickplaya]

Which KJV Study Bible are you referring to? Do you have a link?

[@schwartzkm]

Randy, if Liberty University produced the Evangelical Study Bible, what University should produce the Fundamentalist Study Bible?

[@BibleBuyingGuide]

Good question! I don't know the answer to that, but hopefully someone will.

[@SaneNoMore]

It seems to me nearly everything published these day is Calvinist. This minority viewpoint has really dominated American Christianity these days. Otherwise I’ve really enjoyed my copy of this Bible.

[@rosieds4996]

I agree. Is this Bible a Calvinist slant?

[@SaneNoMore]

@@rosieds4996 It does support a Calvinist understanding in the most common passages Calvinist use, but is otherwise pretty good.

[@Yaas_ok123]

Reflecting God study bible is non-reformed/ weslian. Must have mon-reformed is Adam Harwood's Christian theology.

[@MatthewRuttan]

Hi Randy, great review, thanks. I just ordered this. One of the things I like about it is the little sections with archaeological or theological insights. But my concern is that I can't find any index of them. They appear throughout the text but if, for example, I wanted to see a blurb on 'providence' there's no way to tell where it might be. Am I missing it somewhere or does it just not have it? thanks,

[@BibleBuyingGuide]

Hi Matthew. It only has the topical index in the back. It's helpful, but it doesn't show enough. Providence isn't in the topical index.

[@MatthewRuttan]

@@BibleBuyingGuide Thanks for the response. I think a lack of a more comprehensive index is a flaw, but other than that it looks solid. Thanks again for your work! You're knowledgeable and provide practical commentary and guidance

[@BibleBuyingGuide]

Where in this bible does it state it is a Liberty University Bible?

[@BibleBuyingGuide]

It isn't a Liberty University Bible, but the general editor is Dr. Edward Hindson from Liberty. He wrote the forward and they gave him a special acknowledgment. The managing editor is Daniel Sloan of Liberty University and many of the contributing editors are from Liberty University. There are a few editors from other universities, but most are from Liberty.

[@normanrausch1223]

This is a great study bible deserving of a goatskin or buffalo binding.
