A Study Bible that Gives You More Context about the Ancient World

Ever feel lost when reading through the Bible? Do you find yourself mixing up Israel’s history with Judah’s? What prompted David to write a particular Psalm? Why aren’t Paul’s letters in the order he wrote them?

With the Chronological Study Bible, you get the answers to these questions and more. By arranging Scripture in historical order, you gain significant context to how God’s story fits as a unified book. In addition, while resources like ancient cultural and historical insights, timelines, and articles are usually reserved for commentaries, this information sits side-by-side with Scripture – giving you a clear picture of how God worked throughout secular history to point toward one story of salvation.

What People Are Saying About the Chronological Study Bible

"This Bible is an excellent resource for understanding the order in which the story of God has unfolded. There are very helpful explanations concerning antiquity practices and concepts that may not be understood by modern readers of the Word. This version has become my favorite to use not only for teaching but to help my own understanding of the universal truth of the Bible."

"I think if more people had a chronological Bible they would read it cover to cover. Makes so much more sense than the way the Bible is put together."

– Carol

"A great study Bible! The sidebars are helpful in shedding light on why, where, and when."
