Review: Quick reference, but still packed with information. - This has become my "go to" during bible studies, its small enough to carry with me to church and informative enough to help follow along with the study. Review: The best study bible I’ve ever read!! - I’ve gone through 4 study bibles. All of them were good and I learned and grew through all of them. This John MacArther study Bible is extra special because his notes and his colleagues who took part in writing this Bible are all very compassionate about making sure Gods Word ,which is inerrant, remain inerrant! I was able ,with the guidance of the Holy Spirit to finally see and understand the truth in Gods Word concerning certain things that man taught ,and I had believed for a few years ,but when convicted to search the truth concerning certain things that I was not sure of , John MacArther helped me through his love, compassion and commitment to our God and savior Jesus Christ and his many years of studying Gods Word that he was able to open up the scriptures to those of us who don’t have the many, many years and growth in God that he does!!! It’s the best study bible you will ever own! I prayed for God to give me wisdom through His Word ,and this Bible doesn’t add or subtract any of Gods truth that He gave to His children in order to follow Him ,trust Him, be obedient to Him for our sakes, and to overcome this wicked world we live in! God bless those who are seeking His wisdom which is a treasure better than gold or silver or anything this world has to offer!!! I am looking forward to going home!! My real home with God in His kingdom! Hallelujah! I can’t imagine what it’s going to be like, but I know it’s going to be …. No words can describe what I’d like to say! Not of this world!!!!

Need to prove a point? This is a great book to have!
I'm a Deacon/Elder in a Baptist Church with a lot of older members who will keep you on your toes when attempting to teach a class, and MacArthur's quick reference guide can be of great help when teaching a Bible study, holding to solid Biblical doctrines, and finding the subject reference quickly when needed.

Very simple. Not too informational.
The book is not what I expected when it comes to a reference guide. I was looking for more details and specifics.

Very good, short but well explained.
Yes, for quick question & answer. For the most and difficult questions are inside. For the one who have too many questions in mind you must buy it.

Paper quality
Good content as one can expect from John MacArthur. Was not that impressed with the paper quality of this book though, they used rather thin off-white cheap-looking paper.
