This Bible has so many interesting tidbits to learn from, it has great photos, it has maps, cultural and historic notes, with highlights about ancient texts and artifacts, archaeological sites give info and photos of important sites (places I may never see) and truly brings a wonderful aspect to reading the Bible. It is a thick book with over 2000 pages so the print is smaller but still worth it. An example from the book: "Cultural and Historical Notes The Shofar Psalm 98 Psalm 98:4-6 instructs worshipers to offer joyful prayer music to the Lord, using not only their voices but also various instruments. The Hebrew word translated "ram's horn" here (v. 6) is shofar. This instrument belongs to a class known as aerophones, which produce a sound when air is passed through them.1 The shofar was blown in several contexts: * The blast of the horn summoned warriors to battle and signaled the beginning of an attack (Jdg 3:27; 7:20; Jer 4:19-21). When the Israelites marched around Jericho for the seventh time, they were instructed to blow ram's horns (jos 6:4-5). * The shofar summoned worshipers to Jerusalem (Isa 27:13). * It was blown by watchmen to announce important news, whether celebratory or disastrous (1Sa 13:3; Eze 33:3-6; Joel 2:1,17; Am 2:2). * It was used during coronation ceremonies, such as Solomon's (1Ki 1:34) and Jehu's (2 Ki 9:13) * The shofar was sounded on holy occasions such as: The Day of Atonement during the year of Jubilee (Lev 25:9),2 David's return of the ark to Jerusalem (2Sa 6:15),The covenant renewal ceremony during Asa's religious reforms (2 Ch 15:14) and Regular temple worship (Ps 47:5, 8:13, 98:6, 150:3).

I already had a study Bible so I wanted something that would explain the culture, history and the areas where these things took place. I believe this is the whole package. Good study helps at the end of the Bible with colorful maps. Introduction to each book is informative. I believe I will enjoy!! Thank You
