Study Bible-ESV-Large Print

Bellissima e velocissima ricezione senza problemi. Soddisfatto

I got it in large print and I own a library of Study Bibles, here is what I think of this Bible in regard to usability: - Despite the large font, the font style makes the text too hard on the eyes and the lines are too close, the space between words too small, there are no paragraphs in the large print version and my eyes started bleeding after starring at the text for a few minutes. - The large print and the layout format imposes too wide of an eye movement angle during reading sessions. - The paper is extra thin and the Text just bleeds through, which makes the already poor layout of the content even worse in terms of user friendliness especially in the footnotes which are somewhat crammed up unnecessarily. - Footnotes lack scholarly, and theologically correct explanations and contain a whole lot of irrelevant to the text cross references, which pointlessly ping pongs the reader back and forth to different places without serving any purpose in illuminating the Scripture by means of "Comparing Scripture to Scripture". (Example Luke 18) - There are no bookmark ribbons. - And here is my biggest NO, at the back of the bible, the article regarding "divorce and remarriage" states: "If you have divorced illegally, and remarried, the second marriage is accepted by God as marriage, It's not a perpetual adultery, and you should ask God for forgiveness, Ask God to bless your new marriage and STRIVE not to ruin this one." The only way to read such interpretation into that text is by way of "Eisegesis." - There are so much better options out there, don't fall for the ESV/Crossway hype, this Bible is not the Gold Standard, not by a long shot.

The ESV translation is by far my favourites since I discovered it. It is very easy to understand the complex and layered concepts of the Bible when it is in everyday English. I highly recommend you purchase this translation although I especially love this edition. The commentary is very insightful and has significantly helped my understanding when reading the Bible. The large print font is remarkably crisp, completely eliminating eye strain during long evening study sessions, and the extensive commentary notes are packed with historical context. The cross-referencing system is brilliant for deep topical study.

Bíblia muito bonita e cheia de recursos incríveis. Umas das mais completas do mundo. Possuo a versão em português também, porém, a Study Bible-ESV-Large é ainda mais incrível e completa que a NAA.

This is now my go to study bible. the translation ie easy to follow and the commentary is very good. well worth buying
