We just bought the ESV Bible last Sunday and have enjoyed all of the reference material contained within. When you update it and when you make a large print edition, feel free to make it as big as you want. Thanks!

When I was given a copy of the ESV Study Bible for Christmas, I found that there was now a use for my glasses which magnify small print. The study notes are printed in a small font, but the fine print glasses do the trick for me.

Couldn’t imagine handling a large print version: does it come in a 3 volume set?

Will the MacArthur ESV study Bible be of the same quality as the ESV study Bible? Will it be bound using: premium Calfskin leather, have sewn pages, and be printed on french Bible paper? I sure hope so! Does anyone know? When will we know the details of this edition?

I am a pastor and I am hoping that Crossway would publish the ESV like the Thomas Nelson Ultraslim, Large Print Bible in a quality leather Bible. The sixe on thier Ultraslim is 6 1/2″ x 9 1/2″ x 1″ with 10 pt. text. It is a great size for preaching and teaching

Just purchased the online ESVSB, and am very pleased with it. In the future I’d like to see many more reference works like the upcoming ESV Bible Atlas(!!) included on this website.

I am very pleased that the ESV will be released in a large print version. Hopefully, it will be the size of the NIV Large Print Study Bible. Thomas Nelson has now adopted that size for the revised NKJV Large Print Study Bible. The longer and wider size format that Thomas Nelson had used for its MacArthur Large Print Study Bibles proved to be adverse to the integrity of the binding. The ESVSB will be Smythe sewn, which should bolster the binding’s longevity. I do hope a quality leather binding will be offered as well as the scheduled hardcover.

I fought long and hard when my fiance wanted to get a study bible for her to get the ESVSB. At first, she was hesitant, but in the end, I convinced her that I knew best, and I prevailed. She has thanked me ever since. She loves it. Often, when we are doing our Bible studies together over the phone, I will elaborate on a text and she will say, “That’s exactly what it says in the study notes!”

I’m glad to be among the international readers of the ESV Study Bible (I’m from Chile). One of the reasons I bought it was precisely because there’s so much information in it! Love the way it depicts each book’s background and all the biblical theology resources.

I would like to see all of the ESVSB specific content released as a separate stand-alone commentary, much like John MacArthur has done with The MacArthur Bible Commentary vs. The MacArthur Study Bible. While I own an ESVSB, I like to have all of my major reference books in separate volumes. That way, I can make all of my notes in my Bible that I take with me everywhere (Pitt Minion ESV). The ESVSB is just too large for me to use for anything other than while sitting at my desk. A separate stand-alone reference would also allow for a larger font size.

Large print? I’ll need a wheelbarrow to carry it!
