The Bible is the Holy Word of Almighty God. What better book is there? In it there is the Truth, and HisStory of mankind. I love to read it, and on the bottom of the pages are the Commentaries from the great Bible teacher John McArthur. NKJV is my favorite translation.

it would be better for me to have larger print in two or more volumes with heavier paper that you can't see.through. I love MacArthur and glad to have the Study notes. I bought a stronger pair of reading glasses so i could see the print, but the book is awkwardly heavy for me

John Macarthur is considered by many to be the greatest living Bible Theologian. And for good reason. He has been the Senior Pastor Teacher at Grace Community Church in Panorama City, California since the early ‘70s, teaching Sunday morning and Sunday evening services to a congregation whose membership numbers up in the 1000s. He has been a man who has remained fully accountable in both his ministry and in his life. Over the years John has systematically taught from beginning to end through many books in both the Old and New Testaments. He carefully, meticulously digs deeply into every small nuance of the Scriptures and often takes several years to complete a study in a single book. If I recall correctly it took him 8 years to complete teaching the Book of Matthew. I was attending Grace at that time and he was extremely thorough in his teaching of the book. We own his Study Bible and have found his characteristic, painstaking examination of the scriptures to be present throughout each passage in the same careful way he has taught God’s word from for the pulpit. John is well versed in both Greek and Hebrew and is willing to spend the hours of study necessary to accurately present the material. I would highly recommend the Macarthur Study Bible to anyone who has a heart to know and understand the Creator God of the Universe, His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, and the Truth that we all should sincerely desire to find, know and understand.Read full review
This Bible is excellent for everyday use and for studying. I bought this NKJV copy for my 13 year old son. My husband already has a copy he loves. My 16 year old daughter has the NASB Macarthur Study Bible. They use them for everyday reading, take them to church to check what the pastor is teaching against Macarthur's wisdom in teaching, and use it as a commentary for our Precept studies... I already have an Inductive Study Bible for use with Precept studies so I refer to their MacArthur Bibles often.
Remember, this is not a hundred dollar bible. It is however one of the three best recourses in my sermon preparation arsenal. John hits the mark with his gospel interpretation and his delivery. Pick a verse and read the study notes and you just about have a sermon. I don’t preach from it because of the small print. My eyes are not what they once were, but this is my only study Bible now. I put the rest on the shelf and give them to ones in need of a Bible. I have had just about every study Bible you can mention and in almost every translation. This is the Best. I have the VKJV but the NASB is good as well.
