This is a great bible! I love the extras in the back and the great pro-creation explanations given. I highly recommend it!

I have been looking for the New Defenders Study Bible in leather for a while and since it has been out of print, I have not been able to find one for a reasonable price. I was very happy to find the Henry Morris Study Bible, which is basically the same bible as the New Defenders Study Bible. The price was great. When I received it I was a little disappointed in the size as well as the paper thickness. The paper is thicker than the paper usually used to print bibles. It was also very thick, about 3 inches. I was going to return it but a co-worker bought it from me. She loves it. She just wanted to use it at home, while I wanted to take it to church with me as well as use it at home. I am hoping that they publish this bible again but in slightly different dementions. I would not mind if it was a little taller and wider so that it was not as thick. Slightly thinner paper would also be nice.

The Henry Morris Study Bible is sure to be a blessing in any Christian's life who takes the Word of God to be inerrant because of it's divine inspiration. The notes come from a YEC perspective, but this shouldn't be a problem for a true believer, especially when considering Scripture itself asserts such things on numerous occasions. The introduction clearly lays out Dr. Morris' stance: "Based on this literal and contextual approach, the notes become what one might call Baptistic in ecclesiology, pre-millennial in eschatology, non-charismatic in pneumatology, and moderately Calvinistic in soteriology." I encourage it to be purchased by those 13-30, as nearly all within this age group have grown up thru widespread acceptance of evolutionistic ideas, practices, etc. However, no matter how young or old, this Bible expounds upon the scriptures in such a truthful manner so as to be profitable to all. The 21 appendices provide a wealth of information, each in ideal format. The topical index and concordance could be expanded, but the lack in these two points is hardly noticeable in comparison to the other study aids incorporated (cross references, amazing color maps, etc.) The materials used are high quality and come at a great price from CBD! Overall? Extremely pleased!

P.S- the only bad review so far claims the Bible is around 6 pounds. It is actually only a little over 3.5lbs; still a hefty book, but not warranting an unwarranted 1 star rating.

P.S.S- I suggest CBD add an excerpt link to the 'Genuine Leather Black' product page. Those seriously debating whether or not this is the right Bible for you, simply follow the excerpt link from the hardcover edition.

Features "R" for reference scriptures at the end of each verse. Features "T for additional word translations at the end of each verse.

The Henry Morris study bible has notes and appendices that are designed for apologetics, not just for Creationism vs. Evolution, but for many bible doctrines. I like the fact that the notes are the same size type as the text, because in some study bibles I have to strain to read the notes. Some don't like this because they say that puts the notes on equal footing with the text, but that is not so. A line always divides the two and you have no problem knowing which is which, the text always being on top.
