Have you seen the new ESV Study Bible with Artist Series Cover by Jessica Dennis Bush? Let’s jump right into the beautiful pictures and features!
Crossway sent me this beautiful Study Bible to review. It was perfect timing because our oldest daughter, Imogene, has been taking college classes and wanted a good study Bible to use for class. This Bible has all the study notes she needs and the cover is unique and artistic.
Study Bible Exterior Features
We’ll start with the exterior features of this study Bible. The cover is has this art print titled “Interlude”. It is a fabric over clothboard cover. The cover is quite lovely and has a little bit of a unique personality from a typical floral Bible cover.
You can get this study Bible with different covers. There is the simple hardcover, imitation leather, chestnut imitation leather, or bonded leather just to name a few.
It also has two ribbon markers in a dark brown color. While I think four is the perfect number of ribbon markers, I can be happy with two in this Bible.
This study Bible has all the notes! It has lengthy book introductions and outlines. It has extensive notes. And it has full color maps and diagrams along with the text and a few on glossy cardstock paper in the back. This Bible is made for study!
The ESV Study Bible also has quite a lengthy concordance in the back. It comes in pretty hand when you’re doing more of a topical study than a book study. While not as exhaustive as a separate concordance, this one keeps everything all in one place for you. This will be super helpful to Imogene in her dorm, since she won’t have quite the extensive Bible study library we have at the house.
Overall Impression of the ESV Artist Series Study Bible
This is the perfect Bible for in depth Bible study on the go! It has everything you need to do a pretty good job of studying the Bible without needing a full library of helps. The cover is beautiful and unique. It is quite hefty in size, so it wouldn’t fit well into a small purse or bag– but it’ll fit a school bag just fine. I feel like this is the perfect Bible for a college student. It does not have room for taking notes, but it does have all the study features you want.
