I liked it so much, that I bought these last two as gifts to my son and daughter. The well organized chronology of this bible is not only enlightening my way of understanding the Holy Word, yet, it is amplifying my spiritual life. This bible, the living word of God, is forever more solidifying my long power of intention to perpetuate as a relentless student of the Holy Kingdom. In this world of ambition, where the human quest is significantly for fame and material things, I find myself becoming richer and richer every day by reading this Bible systematically. Thank you my Lord in heavens. Erli S. Bittencourt
I bought this NKJB in chronological order bewcause I wanted to compare its time line with a Reese Chronological Bible in KJB which I had already purchased. I have to say I like the Reese much better. This Bible is full of a lot of modern concepts and does not ring as true to me as the Reese. That does not mean I agree with either this Bible or the Reese in all time interpretations. It is a good resource. Although I prefer to read the KJB. I guess I am one of those old guys that see the KJB as more readable and trust worthy. Thees, ye, thou etc. Donot bother me. They help to understand whether a certain passage is intended for a singular or plural audience. although the ending of many words are different than most contemporaneous translations. They are to me more useful. To reiterate, this Bible is good, but in my opinion the Reese is better. This leads one to believe in evolution. Hugh in ArkansasRead full review
I appreciate it very much! I have possibly a couple dozen Bibles with different translation or interpretations and I compare and cross reference them continuously. It has along with the Chronological time line of events many footnotes and much commentary so it will find it's place within my personal studies.

I have found the Study Bible to have excellent information about the culture in the surrounding areas of the Israelites. I bought it originally to have a chronological understanding of the Bible. However, I soon found it confusing to have the chapters of the Bible rearranged like they are in this book. But that was offset by the amazing insights the captions offer about the meaning of different passages and messages from God as related to the culture of that time. This has made the Bible come alive for me in new ways.
I enjoy the inserted spots that give a historical context to a particular scripture. Lots of other information on the characters in the Bible. The text is in a font that is large enough and clear enough to be easy to read. It's not just a black and white book, there are color maps along with other color pictures. I know this book is going to be a valuable resource for studying God's word and understanding how the scripture related to the people of that time.
