The NLT Study Bible is an exceptional work
Introduction to the NLT Study BibleIn the Introduction, there is a NLT Study Bible Features Guide. There is also a six page Master Timeline which covers the historical period from creation to approximately AD 330. The timeline is quite detailed and gives an overview of what was happening during the periods covered by books of the Bible. Not only does it list the Kings of Israel and Judah, but it also covers the kings of Assyria, Babylonia, Media-Persia and Rome.The introduction also includes a list of NLT Study Bible Contributors. I'm no scholar and my library is limited, but several names managed to catch my eye: Daniel Block, Tremper Longman III, John Oswalt, Grant Osborne, Robert Stein, Mark Strauss, Douglas Moo, Sean Harrison and Philip Comfort.Book and Section IntroductionsThe book introductions cover the usual Setting, Summary, Authorship, Setting and Date information to be found in most Study Bibles. There are several features of the Book...

Awesome
This Bible is so easy to understand. I have much experience with the NIV, TNIV, RSV, ESV, Message, KJV, JB, etc and this one is BY FAR, the easiest to understand. There are three types of Bibles out there: Word-for-Word translations (KJV, ESV, etc) , Thought-for-Thought translations(NIV, TNIV, NLT, etc) and Paraphrase translations (Message, JB, etc). WFW translations are typically sturdy or slanted in their usage of language. Just as we have phrases like "he has fallen asleep forever" (i. e. "died"), so is the Bible full of such things and using a WFW translation makes things like that difficult to understand. Since it was written thousands of years ago, we don't understand their common phrases. TFT translations try to communicate the actual thought that was communicated, but they do consider the actual words (Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic) used. Lastly, Paraphrases basically just communicate the primary idea of the text and sometimes don't give much attention to the original...

Underrated Study Bible
I have had the personal size of this Bible for about a year now and at first I did not use it too much. At first the translation style was hard to get used to as I was used to a more literal translation such as ESV, NASB, NKJV, etc. There are times where other translations have some clunky sentence structure but after giving this Bible a second chance, I love it! Passages that I have read over and over in other translations, it seems like im getting it for the first time, which is definitely a good plus.As for this actual study Bible, it has some great features and the notes are very helpful. The format takes some time to get used to as the study notes are split into three columns, but overall, you get used to it. The book introductions are great and are as thorough as any study Bible out there aside from the ESV Study Bible. A bonus in this study bible also are the Greek and Hebrew words in the back, so if a concordance or a dictionary seems overwhelming to you,...
