New Oxford Annotated Bible
I know others have requested it but maybe with enough votes we can get it.
The premier study Bible used by scholars, pastors, undergraduate and graduate students, The New Oxford Annotated Bible with Apocrypha offers a vast range of information, including extensive notes by experts in their fields; in-text maps, charts, and diagrams; supplementary essays on translation, biblical interpretation, cultural and historical background, and other general topics.
Extensively revised--half of the material is brand new--featuring a new design to enhance readability, and brand-new color maps, the Annotated Fourth Edition adds to the established reputation of this essential biblical studies resource. Many new and revised maps, charts, and diagrams further clarify information found in the Scripture text. In addition, section introductions have been expanded and the book introductions present their information in a standard format so that students can find what they need to know. Of course, the Fourth Edition retains the features prized by students, including single column annotations at the foot of the pages, in-text charts, and maps, a page number-keyed index of all the study materials in the volume, and Oxford's renowned Bible maps. This timely edition maintains and extends the excellence the Annotated's users have come to expect, bringing still more insights, information, and perspectives to bear upon the understanding of the biblical text.

This is very much a standard religious studies class edition of the Bible. FL should carry it.

I have heard from other software companies OUP wants too much money to allow them to offer it, but as you stated it is the standard for universities, and if FL wants to make themselves the choice of higher learning they should offer it. Right now if you want it in Bible software you have to purchase Wordsearch and even then it is only the 3rd Augmented edition and not the current 4th edition.

It would definitely be a good candidate for a reference package aimed at religious studies majors.

Yeah the Kindle edition is horrible I wish I hadn't bought it. If I had known Accordance would be offering it I would have bought for Accordance instead. Logos needs this and other NRSV based study bibles.

Same here I had heard rumours that there might finally be some hope of getting it in Acc but until monday I had no idea it was actually happening. All in all pretty happy with the Acc release came out at a very good introductory price and seems to be all one could ask for (no colour maps, but none of ACC OUP releases seemed to have include the end colour maps but I am not sure if any software edition has those (kindle edition mentions them but they are not there). Indeed the only reason I own them in two places is they go back to when Palm pilot was my mobile Bible and Accordance was my computer based Bible.
