I am a believer in the accuracy of the RSV and wanted to have a good RSV study Bible. There is not much to choose from but this one gives a clear copy of the text and has some useful study helps. Oh, how I wish the RSV was still available in the old Holman Study Bible! This will work well for those who still prefer this text.

I received on time and in excellent condition the ordered product.(I hope I'm not been asked to 'review' the contents!). Thank you. ICoogan

This is a great study Bible for the historically minded. It is not as liberal as the third edition, but just as--if not more--scholarly. I highly recommend it to the serious student of God's Word. I do not recommend the third edition as--though critical scholarship is useful and necessary--it is overly critical and at times, downright paranoid and unscholarly. For example, in the discussion of Philippians 2:6 they say that perhaps the "son of man" image from Daniel is evoked here. Several prominent moderate scholars (Dunn, Hurtado, Wright) have all shown this to be false. They probably said this for the mere sake of being "ecumenical" when actually, they are entirely misleading--and wrong! In *this* edition, the remarks uphold the divinity of Jesus. If you want a New Oxford Bible, get this one--it's just as good, and better for the moderate evangelical.
