Overview

This study Bible follows the 2019 text of the EHV. In addition to notes on the basic EHV translation, the study Bible includes detailed introductions to each book of the Bible as well as supplemental appendices on subjects such as weights and measures, Israel’s neighbors, biblical chronology, geography, the Herods, and so on. It includes maps, charts, and pictures. Its notes focus on archaeological, historical, and geographic information about the text, but it will also include doctrinal notes. The notes of this study Bible are written from a Lutheran perspective, so the doctrinal notes on topics like the sacraments, the millennium, etc., reflect a Lutheran understanding of these topics.

“Job’s three friends present nearly identical answers: They claim suffering is the result of specific sin by the person who is suffering. Elihu adds the explanation that God sends suffering to those whom he loves, in order to discipline them. The LORD does not directly answer this puzzling question for Job, but he simply tells Job that he will have to trust the LORD who is controlling all things and running the world well.” (Job)

“In baptism a person is both born again and born from above.” (John 3:5)
