"I have purchased this as well as the Daily Bible in Chronological order by F.LaGard Smith and I found that I liked Smiths Bible much better for three reasons. Smith introduces sections in a grey box which were quite helpful in giving facts helpful to make the Bible read as a story in simple and understandable terms whereas Nelson's Bible gave more facts that weren't interesting or relevant to me such as archeological facts or info about different empires and pagan cultures, etc. Secondly, Smiths's Bible read more like a story and seem to flow easily, and it really helped me put the whole story into place with lots of ah-ha moments for me of how everything tied together. Nelsons Bible seemed a lot longer to read because repeated verses (for instance if the Bible said the same thing in different places such as in the gospel stories, etc , it would be repeated over again whereas Smith would just list it once and give the references on the side. Thirdly, I didn't like Nelson many lengthly explanations about pagan cultures as it seemed such a diversion of thought to me. Hope this helps"

- I bought this Bible because I wanted to read the Bible chronologically, with the added benefit of a study and maps. I have read through it each day, a little at a time, for over a year now, and I am about halfway through. While I have greatly benefitted from the timelines, the historical summaries, and the interesting facts about the ancient civilizations of Mesopotamia, I doubt the commentaries were even written by Christians. They equate the worship of Yahweh with that of Baal and Molech. There’s no recognition that Isreal was God’s chosen people in the Old Testament at all. It seems the authors’ goals are to equate the Hebrew culture with all the pagan cultures around them, which isn’t culturally or biblically accurate. Whereas I agree that initially in Abraham’s generation some things would have been influenced, naturally, from the pagan cultures Abraham came out of, the rituals that became distinctly Hebrew were indeed handed down to them directly from God. They weren’t borrowed. If there are similarities, it’s bc the pagan cultures crudely imitated God’s Divine design, not the reverse. I’ve come too far to stop reading now, but i’m grateful that I can tell truth from worldly error in these commentaries, and I am just skimming over them. If you are looking for a resource written by a team that promotes God’s glory among the nations, sadly, this is not it. Wish I could have rated this higher.
- The Chronological Study Bible is a bit off-putting when you first crack the cover. To traditional Bible readers who expect canonical order, as learned from time immemorial, this puppy takes a bit of getting used to. Don't expect this to be a quick look-up resource, although it does have a superb annotated concordance. Don't expect books that you are familiar with to be where you expect them to be. After your head feels like exploding trying to grasp the flow, all of a sudden the lights will pop on and you will say, WOW! What a jewel this compilation is going to be!
Reading the standard canonical bible is like traveling down streets at ground level. You cannot see around corners, and seldom see more than a half a block ahead. In chronological order, one chapter in one book will suddenly jump to another book and chapter, then another, then back again. What this accomplishes is stunning! You are mentally raised up high so that your study is no longer at the street level, but elevated to a map view. There is a lot of stuff in the Bible that occurred at the very same time, or in the same time period as the book you are studying. Seeing this mentally in a map-view allows you to observe the street intersections, where your travels are heading, and what influences all these other chapter and book scriptures mean one to the other.
This method of organization coupled with excellent commentary and historical period facts provides a texture and depth of learning I have never experienced before. Calling this Bible a "Study Bible" is, in my opinion, a misnomer. It should be properly titled a "Chronological Learning Bible". To read and LEARN the Bible from cover to cover is a joy with this format. New to the Bible or a seasoned master, Pick an Epoch and go! You will enjoy the journey.
