As such it contains chain referencing, footnotes and explanations in the footer. Additionally, where a particular passage or chapter contains material that is heavily cited as the proof text for a given doctrine, there will often be doctrinal or theological notes available there to discuss the idea in question. ( )I really like this Study Bible. The ESV is a close translation of the Geneva Bible, in more modern English. Excellent study notes coupled with the best modern English translation around make this, far and away, the finest evangelical study Bible available on the market. Unfortunately, does not contain color maps, or the Reformed confessions that are included in the NIV Spirit of the Reformation Study Bible, but those omissions are easily forgiven. no reviews | add a review
