ESV Study Bible

 ESV Study Bible is a great tool.  I would really like to see it in Logos.  I would pre-pay for it as well, if necessary.

Keep an eye on the Pre-Pub page.

Oh, my aching wallet!

Did you notice that they're sweetening the deal on the J-SNoTS prepub?

Yes, I noticed and have to give up. Be blessed if you can. I have to skip this one... at least for now.

Have a great day

Yes I have this bible and I am ready for logos to pre-pub.  The ESV study bible is better than John MacArthur's study bible.

Yes, I have the paper version and Internet version, but I would love to have it in Logos. I read ESV for my daily reading in Logos and ESVSB will be great addition to that. By the way, they have it already in iPhone and other smartphone applications, so it is about the time for Logos.

It looks not only us like the ESV Study Bible. Look here: http://www.worldmag.com/articles/15540 ESV SB is the Book of the Year in the World Magazine. Somebody just posted that in the newsgroups. Interesting. So, will we see it in the pre-pub soon?

While indeed I agree that the ESVSB is excellent, I wonder how
objective a magazine can be when the book that they have just named
“book of the year” also happens to be the free gift you get when
you subscribe...

Who said ESV Study Bible is not in Logos? Look at the Pre-pub page and see [:)]

Thank you Logos. That was nice of you.

Be sure you get the right thing you need. If you have ESV BIble text, you can order just ESV Study notes here

Thank you Phil for making this excellent tool available and for making it possible to buy just notes for those of us who have the ESV text already. I really appreciate that. I hope all the graphics and maps will be included. I love those in the paper ESV SB. Have a great day.

Quick question for Phil:

ESV Study Bible Notes : Will all references to bible text in the ESVSB notes bring up ESV bible text or our default "preferred Bible" translation.  

It would make more sense if we could be assured it would be ESV text no matter what our prefered Bible setting might currently be.

While comparison of ESV Study notes with a different translation might be nice to do on occasion, it is simple enough to compare passages in different translations: the purpose behind making these Notes available seperately seems more in line with avoiding having to buy a second copy of the ESV text for those who have already invested in a Libronix copy of the ESV text.  Linking the ESV Study Bible Notes with ESV Bible text would seem to be closer to the original purpose of the ESV Study Bible.

Phil:

Is it possible just to clarify,

In use, would there be any actual
difference in between using the new ESVSB and using an existing 'plain'
ESV plus the study notes?

i.e. Would the links and footnotes etc. appear the same?

From
the products page, remove the stuff about the ESV itself and there does
not seem to be any clarification about how the integration of notes
will work.

Thanks.

Martin.

Good question. I would also like to know if the integration of the study Bible part into the ESV BIble text will be the same with buying just the notes part. If not, I would change my pre-order.

It is true however that in the web based version of the ESV SB (you get with the paper one) there is just regular text with ESV references and notes and the Study Bible is parallely synchronized, not put into the very Bible text. So if the Logos will have it similar way, it would make sense we can use the existing text of ESV. Looking forward to hearing from Logos on that.

I would prefer that study Bibles have their own category, rather than be classified as commentaries. Maybe in version 4.

Agreed.

I like when Logos resource is as close to the paper version as possible in how it looks. That is why I prefer Logos than other BIble software (among other reasons of course).

Phil Gons said:

Martin, the ESV Study Bible simply provides you with two separate resources, the ESV Bible text and the ESV Study Bible Notes. If you already have the ESV Bible text, you simply need to purchase the ESV Study Bible Notes resource to get the full ESVSB experience.

Great, it will work even with my future Czech Bibles [:)]

...by the way, do you know Phil if there is anything new about the Czech Bibles?

It has now moved into the "In Development" stage.

That was fast, a lot of people were
waiting. At least now Logos gets to tell Crossway “Told ya so...”

Thanks BW, I'd just ordered ESV study bible without realising it was available as notes only.  Your warning prompted me to change my order as I already have it through the Scholar's bundle.  Saved 25%.  Every bit counts in this recession.

Tony.

I just ordered it yesterday so I'm sure that will speed things along![:)]

just wondering how close we are to seeing this product be available?

I am also curious as to whether or not the maps and graphs and stuff will work in the new Logos 4 format under biblical people, places etc.  Cause that would be cool

It would be a nic Christmas present. 

Could someone please educate me? With the resources that Logos has to offer, why do you find the abbreviated comments of a study bible useful?

because sometimes they word things in such a way that makes them more useful & concise than a commentary... plus they tend to always have great maps & charts that are great for teaching, particularly the ESV (i don't particularly care for all of the notes, but the maps & charts are spectacular)

We're planning to ship the ESV Study Bible on September 15, 2010.

And everyone said, "Amen!!!"
