1. Rated 3 out of 5

   Catherine Stewart – January 4, 2022

   This Bible is a stunning piece of workmanship. This is truly beautiful and one of the best gifts I have ever given my husband.

   I am giving it a rating of three, because of the spine. From across the room you can see MacArthur as my Bible is displayed on our coffee table. How I wish that when you looked across the room you saw Holy Bible and in smaller print MacArthur Study Bible. It is God and His Word that I would love to have exalted versus Macarthur.

   I admire John MacArthur and truthfully am surprised that he allowed this to happen.

   I reviewed the other comments and checked this Bible to be sure there were no typos. Apparently those have been fixed, so congratulations. Hopefully in the future the gross error of exalting MacArthur versus Holy Bible on the spine will also be corrected. I feel certain that it was not ever MacArthur’s intention to display himself above the Holy Bible.

   The best Bible I have ever purchased. Regarding Brian M typo on Genesis 31:52 on my Bible is correct and is not misspelled. I love this bible and will continue to enjoy reading it.

   I received this Bible as a Christmas gift from my wife and it’s among the ‘Top 3’ Bibles that I own. The leather is wonderful and the comfort print and color scheme of the text block is the best I’ve seen. It’s a real joy to read from and I can heartily recommend this to others on the fence. I gave this Bible a 4 out of 5 and actually considered giving it a 3 out of 5 because of some careless mistakes I found in the editing. For example, there’s a typo found in Genesis 31:52 where “witness” is misspelled “witvvness”. Though not severe it’s rather unfortunate. I also noticed a typo in the study notes (forgot to note where) and there is a formatting mistake for the study note pertaining to 1 Cor 1:1. It actually begin at the end of Romans 16. This wouldn’t be so obvious if there weren’t a couple pages of introduction separating the text of Romans 16 (p. 1572) and 1 Corinthians 1 (p. 1576).

   One of my pet peeves in any book is catching mistakes that should have been noticed by the editors and the fact this is a Bible is even more regrettable. Nonetheless, this is a really beautiful Study Bible and if you can live with the occasional editing oversight I recommend purchasing one for yourself.

   This Bible is absolutely fantastic! I have bought many high-end Bibles in the past few years (Schuyler, Allan, Cambridge,) but this one beats them all! Here’s why:
   * It came boxed in an just beautiful box. I took off the top lid and this bible came wrapped in some beautiful black paper. I don’t usually notice (or care) about such things, but all I can tell you is this–unpacking this bible was an aesthetic experience (and I am not joking)!!!

   * The brown goatskin leather is the most beautiful I have ever seen, period! It also feels really great. The raised hubs on the spine (all 4 of them) makes this bible look so classy. I mean this thing just screams–“CLASS!”

   * The paper? man, what can I say. It feels so smooth. I mean, I don’t usually even notice that kind of stuff, but I sure did on this one, The art-gilt edges (red under gold) is so great. The gold is SO bright that it can serve as a mirror, that’s how beautiful it is. I do wish that they would have made the red a bit darker but it looks fine.

   * The “comfort print” is so sharp, so clearly defined such as I have rarely seen. Its a good size font, quite dark and so easy to read. The font is great. The line-match is not only on the bible text, but even the notes are line-matched–who ever heard of such a thing? The chapter headings (in a teal-like color) is soft on the eyes and just looks very nice (and helpful as well).

   * And finally this: I thought I would keep this as only a stay-at-home bible, but so wonderful is this bible that I going to carry this bible to church). It IS, however, hefty and heavy–but hey!, its good exercise just to carry it around.

   In conclusion, I could not be happier with my purchase (betcha you couldn’t tell). And with the smythe sewn plus the reinforced stitching on the inside pages means this bible is going to last a life-time and when I go to be with the Lord The MacArthur Study Bible” is going to be my legacy bible that I hope will be passed down for at least 2-3 generations. Thank you, evangelicalbible.com, for making this Thomas Nelson masterpiece available and at a bargain price for such a high-end bible as this. Way to go, guys!

   This bible is gorgeous! Everything is beautiful from the luxurious leather cover, to the beautiful paper and the text block to the thoroughness of jam packed notes and articles. One problem, the sloppiness of the way the ribbons were attached to the book block. Twisted and partially glued to the top of the block. Just don’t understand how this could get by quality control when your putting out a Premium, premier bible such as this. Oh well, overall the nicest bible I’ve ever owned.

   I am so happy with this bible. I have two other MacArthur study bibles and found the study notes so hard to read because the print was so light along with the smaller print used for them. This bible’s comfort print includes those notes and makes it more pleasurable to read them even with the smaller print. The goatskin cover is awesome, the three ribbons beautiful, and the turquoise color used throughout to highlight chapter headings, etc. makes for a very nice reading experience.

   And I want you to know, Evangelical, that I appreciate your wonderful service. Thank you for being there.
