It’s a wonderful edition that I would highly recommend to just about anyone. To say I’m impressed would be one thing (and I am quite impressed), but there’s an even stronger feeling that I was not expecting.Ĭonsidering what this Bible meant for me personally during an integral season of my life, and seeing it now with a more critical eye and realizing just how robust it is, I feel grateful for the ESV Study Bible.

I have spent the past few days immersed in its pages and researching it online. That Bible has been sitting on my shelf for a while, but the arrival of a new buffalo leather edition from Crossway has caused me to revisit the ESV Study Bible.

Looking back, those were important years for me as a young man who was struggling to find his place in life, and it’s probably safe to say that God used the ESV Study Bible to nudge me down the path of ministry. I got a black genuine leather copy back when it was first released in 2008, and for several years it was my primary source for reading and studying the Bible. I’ve spent a lot of time with ESV Study Bible over the years. It’s way too early for me to be awake on a Saturday morning, but for some reason I woke up thinking about the ESV Study Bible, and I could not go back to sleep. I’m sitting here at my kitchen table with a decent-but-not-great cup of coffee (why does it always taste better when Becca makes it?). A closer look at the latest edition of Crossway’s flagship Bible.
