The Scofield Study Bible III, NKJV, Large Print Edition: New King James Version, Red Letter

The Bible came in Excellent condition and in good time. Scofield study notes are brief but helpfull and the layout on this Bible is to me much better than the older Scofield. Shame it is not a KJV but I am Fairly happy with the NKJV.

Best buy

This is the best study bible i;ve ever had.It does;nt matter what you choose to study in the bible, wether a person,a chapter, or an area, or the Blood of Christ, Prayer. This Bible will give you everything you need.There.s so many study helps,maps, concordance,outline of every book in the Bible.I just cannot put it down. thumb index,side column ref,Greek and Hebrew text at the bottom of the page, Would certainly reccomend this edition.

I can't really review a Bible :) but the Schofield study version is a good objective study Bible, that I have used before. This particular Bible took a bit of time to come in (wasn't in stock, even though the site said otherwise - lost a star there), but is well bound, paper quality, etc., is in good shape. I still can't figure out if the leather is genuine or bonded, but it looks sound. Certainly recommended for serious study.

Very happy and worth every cent. I am delighted. Thank you and God bless.

Worth getting explains everything well and easy to understand

Very sturdy Bible. Smythe sewn, instead of glued - it will NOT come apart. Very opaque paper - you can only read one page at a time - as opposed to most Bibles where the page behind the one you are reading is highly/irritatingly visible. This Study Bible has a good bit of verse-by-verse commentary BUT not nearly so much as in (for example) The Nelson Study Bible & The NIV Study Bible. However -- as a Bible teacher -- I find this Study Bible is my favorite for use in teaching. Reason - it has a lot of summary tables, wherein major Bible doctrines & topics are analyzed in great depth, with plenty of cogent Bible references in support of each such analysis. Ergo, as I prepare each lesson (I teach by the "expository method" -- book-by-book, chapter-by-chapter, verse-by-verse) I make extensive use of the Bible's Appendix which lists the location of all the numerous analyses found throughout the Bible. I make written notes to reference these analyses directly into the ample margins of the Bible section that I am covering that day. It works gang-busters as a superb teaching tool. I rate the color maps at the back of the Bible at 8 on a scale of 10. Good but not great. There are black & white maps at applicable locations throughout the Bible -- these I rate at 9 as to helpfulness for a Bible reader. As a teacher, however, I use a separate Bible Geography book when locales are a significant factor in explaining a particular Bible passage. The included Concordance will help you zero in on most *key* verses. Also, a separate Strongs exhaustive concordance & lexicon works very well. Strongs is keyed to old KJV. However, this NKJV is close enough to the KJV that there is no problem in finding NKJV verses by doing a "Strongs look-up". By the way, another reason I like teaching from NKJV: some attendees have "other" translations. This presents no problem when I use NKJV because NKJV is very honest in that it carefully & fully cross-references to variants so that, with any given verse, I am always aware of significant differences between NKJV & other translations. No other translation is equally as useful in this respect. Finally, I like this Bible because it is printed verse-by-verse instead of paragraph style. As a teacher I GREATLY prefer verse-by-verse printing because: (1) It's waay easier to quickly spot a desired verse. (2) There is a lot more white space. White space leaves a bit of space for making notes. White space makes a given page look "friendlier" -- less imposing -- easier to read. I enjoy giving away Bibles. When doing so, I will only give a Bible which is printed verse-by-verse. In my experience I have found that such Bibles have a much greater possibility of actually being read-for-pleasure/enlightenment by new-to-the-Bible folks. On the other hand, I have noted that the paragraphed Bibles, which I used to give, often ended up gathering dust. In sum: Great translation Solidly constructed Bible. PLENTY of white space. Great but unobtrusive study notes. My favorite. I think you might like it, too.

The binding on this brand new bible was cracked which will affect its durability when used. The content is very good.

Finally ! The perfect study bible !! I love the hard cover edition ! No chemical smell ! It's not heavy! Nor is it hard to navigate while I study or read ! The format of the text is perfect and not awkward at all ! The pages are not to thin or to thick ! All around I LOVE MY NEW SCOFIELD STUDY BIBLES!! perfect in everyday! So blessed by this wonderful Word of God ! A very clear , factual help in deepening my walk with the Lord Jesus Christ ! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND

The Scofield Study Bible, NIV version, is a trustworthy version of the Bible. The NIV is a translation by conservative scholars who were interested in accuracy. It is much easier to read and understand than the King James version because it uses modern sentence structure and language. And it is as trustworthy. I like the notes at the bottom of the pages - especially the maps which are embedded in the chapters so one does not have to go to an appendix. Some notes are better than others. Contains good cross referencing and concordance. These notes can especially be helpful to those who study the Bible on their own. Please note that these notes are not the same as those in the original Scofield Study Bible. One thing I miss that was in the original Scofield Study Bible that is not in this one are the approximate dates for the various stories in the Bible.

A gift to my friend who needs large print. She says it is perfect
