- Excellent Study Bible
W.A. Criswell is by far one of the clearest teachers of the Bible. I use the commentary in this Study Bible as a resource to teach and preach. If you are looking for a clear study Bible, this is the one you should purchase. Criswell College is named after W.A. Criswell and home of the Pasche Institute of Jewish Studies. His teachings are clear and easy to understand.

- The problems with "Study Bibles" ...
1) They almost never inspire "study" - we Americans are laaa-zeee. We would rather have someone else do our thinking for us. 2) Their "notes" are too often propaganda rather than exegesis - please learn the difference and always keep this distinction before you. 3) Any Bible that has a subtitle is, by definition, suggesting that this edition is better than the rest - do you see why I would say that? 4) Too often "Study" Bibles are simply devices for selling more paper and ink - the same applies to "new" translations.

If you want to celebrate your heritage, good for you. But be aware of this - if you are a Christian your heritage is neither in your church's denomination nor even in your church's pedigree. Our heritage is in Christ and in Him alone. We need to stop thinking in terms of "It's all about me" (e.g. I'm a Baptist / Presbyterian / Episcopalian,etc.) and start focusing on the excellencies ...

- Errant Notes to the Inerrant Word
This study Bible adds errant notes to the inerrant Word of God. It represents the definitive position of a theology (dispensationalism) that will be so changed in the next few decades that it will be unrecognizable from its present form. Those who believe that dispensationalism is Baptist theology don't know their Baptist history. Gill, Fuller, Boyce, Dagg, Carroll, Hovey were all covenant, calvinistic theologians. The precursors to modern Baptists who hold to dispensationalism were either holiness folks like A.J. Gordon, or radical sepratists like William B. Riley. This study Bible is no more representative of Southern Baptists than the Ryrie Study Bible. Go buy the Open Bible, a much better choice.

- Great!
This study Bible is a fantastic resource for any and every Baptist believer! When you open the cover, and see a forward by Billy Graham, you know it is going to be good, and when you look at the list of contributors and see W.A. Criswell and John MacArthur, you know it is going to be great!

Each Bible book starts out with an in-depth introduction that discusses such things author, date and theme, then has a nice outline, and then follows with the Biblical text (New King James Version) with copious and highly informative annotations at the bottom of the page. At the end of the book are several Bible study articles, maps, and a nice concordance.

Now, my description above is not really exhaustive. There is so much in this great book that I could probably write a small book just describing it! So, suffice it to say that this is a great study Bible, one that is sure to please any Baptist believer. ... Read More
