New ESV Study Bible

I'm quite excited about the new ESV Study Bible (thanks to Abraham @ Desiring God) that is coming in October 2008.

This reminds me of some of my frustrations when reading our current Bibles, especially the last few chapters of Exodus, and that is that there are beautiful descriptions of, say, the temple, but you have to perform too many mathematical equations to get anything imagined in your brain. (i.e., "If a cubit is approximately 17.5 inches, then 102 cubits would probably be 150 feet, which is like half of a football field...") This new one has some awesome looking illustrations and maps, and that's good because sometimes I pull a Gaston. ("How can you read this? There's no pictures!") Not to mention the study notes look fantastic.

And it'll come in that nifty TruTone® material?

The ESV Study Bible is the most important resource that has been given to the emerging generation of Bible students and teachers. The ESV Study Bible is the best. Period.
