“To understand the Bible, you need to know where it came from. This is one of the best things I am getting from my PhD studies of the Bible: knowing the cultural and historical background of biblical stories makes them stand out in 3D. But what if you don’t have time to go get a PhD, and leaf through dusty journals to find this information? That is where the ESV Archaeology Study Bible comes in. Top–notch evangelical scholars like Richard Hess and John Currid have sifted through all the data, and created an invaluable resource for understanding the biblical world. The Archaeology Study Bible will help you think about Big Questions, like, “When did the Exodus happen?” or “What is the Significance of the Dead Sea Scrolls?” The articles on these topics are up–to–date and balanced. But perhaps even more importantly, if you are reading or preaching on a passage, you can look in this study bible to get a sense of the original context of that passage: what did other ancient Near Eastern peoples think about the creation of the world? What was the city of Corinth like in the time of Paul? The best way to sum up my excitement about the Archaeology Study Bible is that it has all the information I wish were in other study bibles. It has the answers to a lot of questions people at church have asked me. And it has a lot of pictures. And who doesn’t love pictures?”

“The goal of the study material is to steer clear of pop-archaeology and produce material thats reliable and trust-worthy. The notes are written by actual archaeologists who have academic training and many years experience that includes on-site digs. The notes are also relevant and accessible. This isnt just historical information thats interesting. Theyre useful for pastors and teachers to help their congregations to understand more about the Bible itself, and for seminarians in the study of apologetics.”
