After 10 years of new archeological discoveries and changes in biblical studies, it was time for an overhaul of this classic reference work.

With the guidance of the Society of Biblical Literature, an organization of the best biblical scholars world wide, we have selected Dean of Yale Divinity School, Harold Attridge, to oversee the Study Bible's updating and revision.

Includes:
- up–to–date introductions to the Biblical books, based on the latest critical scholarship, by leading experts in the field
- concise notes, clearly explaining names, dates, places, obscure terms, and other difficulties in reading the Biblical text careful analysis of the structure of Biblical books
- abundant maps, tables, and charts to enable the reader to understand the context of the Bible, and to see the relationship among its parts.

In this new revised edition every introduction, essay, map, illustration and explanatory note has been reviewed and updated, and new material added. - There are newly commissioned introductory essays on:
- the archaeology of ancient Israel and the New Testament world,
- the religion of ancient Israel,
- the social and historical context of each book of the Bible, and - on Biblical interpretation.

There are completely new introductions and notes for many of the books in the Bible, plus a full revision and updating of all others.

  • The Harper Collins Study bible incl Apocryphal and concordance

    Posted by John Hackett on 10/07/2019

     

    I bought this book last year and am very happy. Its so good having an NRSV study bible with both the Apocryphal writings and concordance. The notes on each page are both comprehensive and well written; - I rate them as very good!
    Each book contains an outline that I've also found extremely useful.
    An excellent bible for every day use and ideal for further study.
