“Outstanding! The ESV Study Bible is a treasure—a beautiful volume, filled with a wealth of resources. It will be just as useful for the seminarian and long-time pastor as it will be accessible to the brand-new Christian.”

R. Albert Mohler Jr., President, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Louisville, KY

“If I could recommend one tool to anyone who wants to study the Word of God, it would be the ESV Study Bible. Not only does it contain a wealth of notes and articles addressing everything from the meaning of individual verses to the big picture of God’s story, but all these resources are also available online. We use the ESV Study Bible as a tool for training Cru missionaries how to interpret Scripture. I love the fact that the content can be accessed with a web browser from anywhere in the world, for those who own the study Bible. This is one resource you definitely want to add to your library.”

Keith E. Johnson, National Director of Theological Education – Cru (Campus Crusade for Christ)

“The ESV Study Bible is an invaluable and inexhaustible resource—for those who already know and treasure God’s Word, as well as for the new generation of Bible students who have yet to discover the wonder and wealth of Scripture. I especially love the way the notes and articles highlight the great redemptive story and ‘connect the dots’ between the various portions and themes of Scripture. Full of rich insight, scholarly yet accessible—I am deeply grateful for this magnificent work.”

Nancy Leigh DeMoss, author, host of Revive Our Hearts Radio

“The English Standard Version has been my translation of choice for the last ten years and more. When you combine the reverent and careful rendition with the riches of the articles, commentaries and support detail in the Study Bible, we have access to an ideal single-volume elucidation of the Scriptures.”
