\["For anyone who wants to understand God's word in a deeper way","Curated to help you study with a huge number of additional notes and articles","You'll find in this edition a valuable resource for deeper faith"\]

"The ESV is a dream come true for me. The rightful heir to a great line of historic translations, it provides the continuity and modern accuracy I longed for. Now the scope and theological faithfulness of the ESV Study Bible study notes is breathtaking. Oh how precious is the written Word of God."  
John Piper, Founder and Teacher, desiringGod.org; Chancellor, Bethlehem College &amp; Seminary; author, Desiring God

"The definitive clarity and beauty of the ESV Study Bible is extraordinary. In a world where words are distorted to mean anything, it is wonderful to have complete confidence in the reliability and truth of the Bible—so clearly and persuasively demonstrated by this world-class team of Bible scholars and teachers. For everyone who wants to understand God’s Word in a deeper way, the ESV Study Bible is an outstanding resource. I will be an avid user!"  
Joni Eareckson Tada, Founder, Joni and Friends

"Outstanding! The ESV Study Bible is a treasure—a beautiful volume, filled with a wealth of resources. It will be just as useful for the seminarian and long-time pastor as it will be accessible to the brand-new Christian."  
R. Albert Mohler Jr., President, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

"The ESV Study Bible is an invaluable and inexhaustible resource—for those who already know and treasure God’s Word, as well as for the new generation of Bible students who have yet to discover the wonder and wealth of Scripture. I especially love the way the notes and articles highlight the great redemptive story and ‘connect the dots’ between the various portions and themes of Scripture. Full of rich insight, scholarly yet accessible—I am deeply grateful for this magnificent work."  
Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth, author, Adorned; Teacher and Host, Revive Our Hearts

"I was privileged to act as General Editor of the English Standard Version, and now that I look back on what we did in producing that version, I find myself suspecting very strongly that this was the most important thing that I have ever done for the Kingdom, and that the product of our labors is perhaps the biggest milestone in Bible translation in certainly the last half century at least, and perhaps more. And now, as Theological Editor of the ESV Study Bible, I believe that the work we have done together on this project has set an altogether new standard in study Bibles."  
J. I. Packer, Board of Governors' Professor of Theology, Regent College

"The ESV Study Bible is a tour de force: innovative production, beautiful graphics, and notes by outstanding scholars packed with useful information."  
Mark Dever, Pastor, Capitol Hill Baptist Church, Washington, DC; President, 9Marks

"This is surely the most comprehensive study Bible yet! Serious students of the Bible will find this an invaluable aid to understanding the text, the background, and some key theological issues of the Bible. In addition to the reliable ESV text with notes, it has resources that no teacher or preacher should be without. Beautifully produced and accessible, it will also make a great gift for new Christians."  
Graeme Goldsworthy, Former Lecturer in Old Testament, Biblical Theology, and Hermeneutics, Moore Theological College

A valuable resource for serious readers, students, and teachers of God's word.

Is this American English or Anglicised? Is it is in American English do you know if there is anyone likely to produce a Anglicised ESV Study Bible any time soon? Thanks for your help.

Anglicised?

The study notes are very helpful and comprehensive. The font is a better size for me than the font on the ESV Personal size Study Bible. I can manage to read both the main text and the study notes. I could not read the study notes in the ESV Personal size Study Bible. I wear varifocal glasses and am of pension age.

ESV Study Bible is as it says.

I am delighted with the amount of material included in the study bible. It is a hefty tome, helpful for keep fit as well as spiritual study. I am particularly delighted in the balanced approach. Nowhere is this demonstrated better than in the introduction article about Revelation. Here you will find a clear description of the different interpretative schools of thought without any ridiculing of any or overtly giving a preference. The reader is left to decide for themselves. I really appreciate this descriptive rather than prescriptive approach, and this alone makes this better than most study bibles. I could not, for instance, keep patience with the MacArthur Study Bible for the same reason - it is prescriptive and really does not allow you to think for yourself and reach your own conclusions before God and with the help of the Holy Spirit. This volume may not be as pretty or as colourful as, say, the illustrated NLT Study bible, but the notes - in my opionion - are better. This is the best Study Bible I have bought so far. But the new NIV Study Bible (2020 fully revised edition) looks like it could be just as good or better... Maybe I will have to begin saving my pennies.
