 GREAT BIBLE RESOURCE September 30, 2008

When you wish to learn the biblical meaning of strange passages this is the book for you.
Well Organized August 27, 2008

The information is concisely presented without going into a lot of detail. However there is certainly depth. Good cross-referencing is a key factor in my decision to recommending this great study bible volume.
 A very liberal and PC study Bible July 28, 2008
21 out of 31 found this review helpful
The Bible commentaries are written from a decidedly liberal theological perspective. It is obvious that the authors believe the Bible is just a product of ancient myths and storytelling. They disbelieve miracles and explain away prophecy by assigning late dates for the books. Their notes are not balanced and really does not present opposing points of view or evidence to the contrary. More a work of anti-Christian and anti-Jewish propaganda than a balanced, scholarly work. Also, while it is not a bad translation, the NRSV does have some gender-neutrality inserted into it. All in all, I cannot recommend this study Bible. It reads like skeptics and non-believers wrote it. Instead, I would recommend the NIV Study Bible or NKJV Study Bible.
Great for students July 3, 2008

I bought this book when I signed up for a class on the Bible as literature, and now I'm really glad I have a copy. The notes are outstanding, as are the overview sections of each book and the history. I like the binding, also - it always sits just right when you open it to a page.
 Lots if info, not much of it useful June 6, 2008
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I purchased this because I wanted a Bible with the Apocryphal/Deuterocannonical books and because I thought that even without research into the options for study Bibles Oxford would not disappoint. You can usually count of them.
Unfortunately I was disappointed. I found the introductions to be, rather than a presentation of evidence, an incredibly brief overview of the multiple positions concerning authorship etc... Which would be great if I was desiring a condensed history of research, but I wanted discussions of WHY those positions are taken on 'Date, authorship, etc..'
The annotations are generally the same. There are many notes that give information about the passage, but often it is a seemingly random reference to geography or some such thing, which, although sometimes helpful, does not help a student to understand what the text is attempting to communicate. That is, being that this is a study Bible and not a commentary I believe that the notes should be aimed at the immediate interpretation of the passage in the context of the book rather than bits of (correct though it may be) information that could best be utilized in the thorough survey of a commentary.
For my money the best study Bibles containing the A/DC books are the HarperCollins NRSV, the Interpreter's Bible w/NRSV, the second ed. Oxford Annotated with RSV, and The New Jerusalem Bible (provided it has the annotations). The single greatest study Bible that concerns textual criticism, translation, and grammar is the NET Bible. Unfortunately they have not yet released a Bible with the A/DC books and they are needed in one form or another for thorough exegesis of much of the NT and to understand the shape and story of the Canon.
