The ESV Literary Study Bible approaches the Bible as literature and shows how the application of literary tools of analysis helps tremendously in reading and understanding the Bible. Readers are introduced to the literary features of each book of the Bible and to each section within each book. While traditional Bibles are reference books, this is truly a reader's Bible. The format and commentary make it ideal for private devotional reading, for preachers and Bible teachers, and for use in group Bible studies.
Features:
- A general introduction, including twelve literary features of the Bible
- An introduction to each Bible book, including an overview in chart form
- Tips for reading and analyzing each passage
- Headnotes (not footnotes) introducing each literary section
- Single-column format—this Bible reads like a book!
- Words of Christ in black
- Glossary of literary terms
- Plan for reading The Literary Study Bible in one year

(On the ESV as a translation:) "I use the ESV as my main English language version in my teaching, preaching, and personal Bible study. Having been on the translation team, I have a great respect of its accuracy and its literary excellence. Dr. Vern S. Poythress, Professor of New Testament Interpretation at Westminster Theological Seminary.
