PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Other NRSV study Bibles provide factual information about the biblical
text, but don't include extensive guidance for Christian living. The Discipleship Study Bible is unique in offering both. Its annotations emphasize the personal and
communal implications of the Bible for today without sacrificing the
tools needed for understanding the ancient texts on their own terms. In
combining these approaches to Bible study, a group of gifted writers,
editors, and scholars have produced a truly comprehensive resource that
includes introductory essays to each book of the Bible by top-notch
contemporary Bible scholars; the complete text of the New Revised
Standard Version, including Apocrypha; a chronology of the events and
literature of ancient Israel and early Christianity; a concise
concordance; and eight pages of color maps.
