For the curious and the searching
This ESV study Bible is a phenomenal, practical, life-changing resource for students of all ages. It's filled with maps, study guides, commentary, and most importantly: the inspired Word of God. There's a bit of margin for personal note-taking (important for me), primarily around other illustrations, charts, or graphs. Paper is thin, as you would expect, which allows for a portable size of this complete study Bible. The binding is well done and could be treasured and read for years to come, great for giftable or personal use.

Love it!
Beautiful cover material and color and embossed flower, I can't help to touch it and want to read it. I got it for my teen daughter and she loves it! She loves the 8x5 size, not heavy just the right size for her. I personally love it for the study notes and want one too, however, I prefer a larger print. I believe this is about a 7 pt, but my daughter is fine with it. Note: this is not a note taking bible so there is no room on the margins for notes. Great buy! I would recommend

Perfect for Me
In my opinion this Bible, the ESV Student Study Bible, is stunning. It exceeds the expectations I had for ease of use and the quality and beauty of the book. The leather look cover is understated while at the same time being luscious to look at and velvety to the touch. The binding is well done and strong. The paper quality is perfect; silky and smooth and appropriate for a Bible. The diagrams and pictures are detailed and engaging and the coloring is beautiful. The Did You Know study clauses are very helpful and so simply stated and clear. I love the font and shade of the text and the modern chapter headings text. The brown study and reference and footnote boxes have differing shades which contrast the contents well. Everything about reading this Bible is easy on my eyes.In my opinion, they have done a very good job on this Bible, culminating in a book that is a joy to read and easy to understand. I cannot find one thing I don't really love about this beautiful Bible and I highly recommend it if you are looking for a study Bible such as this; it is unique and helpful with way too many special additions, information, illustrations and such to mention. Thank you.

Very good.
Bible comes in a case - not sure how long it'll last. Maybe 100-120lb paper. Thin cardboard.Regardless, the Bible cover and binding is tight. Good construction. Bible weighs a fraction of an ounce less than two pounds. The cover measures 8-5/8" x 6". The pages rest 1/4" inside on three sides.What makes it a "Student Bible"? I randomly pulled a verse - John 11:11. Lazarus is dead - Jesus hung out for two days where He was, then told His disciples, "Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I will go awaken him." Let's compare some footnotes:My wife's NIV: "fallen asleep." A euphemism for death, used by the unbelieving world as well as by Christians.My ESV (MacArthur): "fallen asleep." A euphemistic term used in the NT to refer to death, particularly with reference to believers who will be physically raised to eternal life (cf. 1 Cor. 11:30; 15:15; 1 Thess 4:13).This Student Study Bible: "Fallen asleep" means "died" (see vv. 12-14). The OT equivalent is "slept with his fathers" (e.g., 1 Kings 2:10). Occasionally, death is compared to a deep sleep from which people will one day be awakened (e.g., Dan 12:2).The Student Bible is certainly more both direct and expansive, puts the phrase in context with similar phrases, and gives three references to further understand. Nice job.Every two-page section also has a "Did you know?" There are dozens of personal profiles, maps, and charts.Overall, very well-done. Pleased and recommend.

Nice and very informative.
Wow, the minute I unboxed this bible I knew its of great quality, very well made. I love the cover's material, soft and nice. It has lots of information for young believers. I love the maps, the glossary, the footnotes, and the Did you know facts information. I am very pleased to have this bible in my small books library collection.

Decent Bible.
This is a really nice study bible for the price. The binding feels solid and should hold up to regular use. The study notes are helpful without being overwhelming and the cross-references are extensive, though note they are evangelical in theology. The font size is comfortable to read and the paper quality is good - not too thin like some cheaper bibles. The wildflower design is attractive.

Perfect for a maturing young Christian
This is a great Bible for a growing believer. I picked it up for my 14 year old as his first "next level" Bible after his more children focused CSB that he had. The notes are excellent for his age. They are accessible, but still stretch him, which is what I want for him. I would recommend for any teen.
