All that you wish from a Bible
A book that draws you deeper into Faith and Scripture. Pleasant typeface. The text notes and the additional articles are concise and clear and illuminating. Icons are beautiful.

If you are serious about Bible study, you must have this book
This is a wonderful addition to complete the Bible. If you are a serious Bible reader, you MUST have this book on your shelf. It gives a different viewpoint to the Western Christian view. I find this gives food for thought and for me a feeling that I would like to learn more about a church which developed in parallel to Western Christianity with an impressive provenance. Honestly you will kick yourself if you don't buy this well priced wonderful book from Thomas Nelson.

Why this is now my study Bible of choice
As I mentioned in the title of this review, the Orthodox Study Bible has recently dethroned my trusty, old-RSV, New Oxford Annotated Bible as my study Bible of choice. I had little notion this would happen. I do have an extensive collection of Bibles in various translations that I use for comparative study; but probably like yourself, I also have a preferred Bible to go to by default for prayerful reading. Over the last two years, I just found myself picking up the OSB more and more and the NOAB less and less.
