Summary: Destined to be a Classic!!!
Comment: Using the word for word accuracy of the NKJV Version of the Bible, this scholarly work of popular Bible expositor and pastor, John MacArthur, is destined to be a classic in its genre.
As a study Bible, it aids the reader to understand the biblical text better with its unique feature that sets it apart from most Study Bibles - the over 20,000 study notes along side the text that explains and expound on almost every verse of the Bible! This is the diligent work of over 28 years of faithful expository preaching of the Bible at Grace Community Church - the home church of John MacArthur.
This reveals the passionate devotion of the author in faithful exposition of the Word, verse by verse. Though unashamedly biased towards the Reformed tradition, (as compared to more objectively-oriented Bibles like the NIV Study Bible and Nelson Study Bible), this work is among the best in its ability to aid people in understanding God's Word better.
Its cross-references are useful in supporting the interpretation of passages, using Scripture to interpret Scripture. It has thorough outlines of each book of the Bible (each outline is very thorough in its treatment of the authorship, date and setting, background and interpretative challenges)which are indefinitely more elaborate than most study Bibles like Ryrie, Scofield, Thompson Chain Reference, Spirit Filled Life, New Geneva, etc.
It also includes an introduction to the Bible, an article on how to study the Bible, harmony of the Gospels as well as the books of Samuel, Kings and Chronicles, chronological outline of the progression of Scripture, 12-page outline of systematic theology, a 200-page topical index, and over 20 bible maps, etc..all organized into a huge 2150 ++ over pages!
Truly an outstanding work that will set standards for ages to come. One of the most comprehensive Study Bibles so far in my collection!
If you are a zealous student of the Word, this Bible is for you!

Summary: If you're looking for a study Bible -- this is the one!
Comment: The MacArthur Study Bible is by far the best study Bible on the market. I own several study Bibles (NIV Study Bible, Life Application Study Bible, Old Scofield Study Bible, Thompson Chain Reference Study Bible, Nelson's King James Study Bible, Praise and Worship Study Bible, The Comparative Study Bible, etc.). I can say, without a doubt, that the notes in the MacArthur Study Bible are the finest to be found anywhere. When studying a particular passage of scripture in various commentaries (e.g. The NIV Bible Commentary [i.e., the condensation of the Expositor's Bible Commentary], Tyndale NT Commentaries, Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible, and the Believer's Bible Commentary), I often find that MacArthur's treatment (in his study Bible) is more detailed!! In all cases, MacArthur reaches a sound conclusion. I have yet to find any theologically unsound teaching in this Bible. MacArthur expounds the Word the way it was meant to be expounded - with clarity, with scholarship, and with a belief in the infallibility of God's inspired Word. Everything in this Bible is top notch. In addition to the abundance of commentary, many other helps are found, e.g. a section on "How We Got The Bible," a section on "How to Study The Bible," wonderful chronological charts, a section entitled "Overview of Theology," etc., etc.. In short, the MacArthur Study Bible has everything other study Bibles (i.e., the ones mentioned above) have, plus more! Additionally, the actual page layout is quite appealing to the eye -- unlike some study Bibles. Also, the book introductions are among the best I have seen.
The New King James Version is an excellent translation. Serious students of the Bible will find the marginal manuscript variation notes invaluable!
I would give the MacArthur Study Bible an unconditionable recommendation to anyone looking for a study Bible giving a detailed treatment of the Word.

Summary: A resource for YEARS to come....
Comment: Johnny Mac has put his life into getting this volume together and it shows. Filled with copious amounts of notes, maps, explanations and much more on virtually every verse of scripture, this is probably the BEST study bible on the market, bar none.
My only caveats - there's a few small points here and there that I don't agree with, but they're open to discussion (i.e.- 2 Cor. 13 - Paul's thorn in the flesh).... but otherwise this is a pretty solid resource. He should've included a topical index like the New Open Bible does. Lastly, he needs to make this available in the ESV translation as soon as possible. Other than that- GREAT! I say get one right now.
