Hmm, my new Bible came today...
I'm at work, so I haven't really had a chance to look through it, except quickly, but I really like the quality and format, from what I've seen. And, yes, bonus, I love the icons that they've included....very nice. It is, for those who are interested, The Orthodox Study Bible.
Now, back to work. And to decide if there's a point to the post about the Fast & Furious and gladiatorial combat and female hormones and reproduction that I half want to write...
Excellent choice, I have one as well and found it to be a great resource.
ReplyDeleteI also have the Macarther Study Bible and the Reese Chronological Bible. And recommend the latter if you're looking to put things in a time-line.
Both hubby and I love the quotes from the Fathers in the study notes. A real Orthodox Bible---finally!
ReplyDeleteoh dear.... another one to add to my amazon wish list.... :0D
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely wonderful and worth every penny. Just too bad it had to arrive on a Monday :) But, heck nothing like this to cure a case of the Monday's. Love you.
ReplyDeleteJanice,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the suggestions. It actually made me think, 'how many Bibles does one person need?' since I currently have three...and then I realized who family has seven altogether...
Mamajuliana,
ReplyDeleteIt's great...and I'm the kind of person who reads all the footnotes on everything. I'm very happy with this Bible. :)
Ahavah,
ReplyDeleteAmazon is a dangerous thing. Very, very dangerous. :) My wishlist would give some weaker people the vapors!
Lisa,
ReplyDeleteOh, it's not bad that it came on a Monday. It's hardly as though I could have read the entire Bible on a weekend anyway...
But it is totally worth it. :)
sob... wail... I succumbed.... 2 books are winging their way to me...
ReplyDelete:0D I am quite beside my self with excitment....

Oooohhh....
ReplyDeleteWhad'ya get?
