I have a policy of not knowingly posting a book if it has been posted in the past. This one was posted most recently, at least, a year or so ago. Why am I posting it again?

First, it is $2.00 cheaper than it was the last time that it was posted. Second, the most recent time that it was posted before it was posted in a now dormant thread "Reduced price Bibles." Though this study bible does contain the Bible, it contains much, much more than that. People who are looking for tools, helps, and information in studying the Bible might not look in a "Reduced price Bibles" thread, thinking that the thread basically has only ebooks with the biblical text. I feel that these study bibles are best placed in this "Free/Bargain Christian Interest" thread.

My post of this book does not necessarily mean that I endorse the doctrinal views held by the writers of the non-bible text.

NIV Quest Study Bible: The Question and Answer Bible. Zondervan. Rated 4 1/2 stars from 122 reviews. Print list price $39.99; Kindle price now $4.99. http://www.amazon.com/NIV-Quest-Stud...d+Answer+Bible. I thought that, with this book being discountable, buying from Kobo might save some money, but I noticed that their reduced price is $9.99; unless you find a large discount code, buying there would not help you. I did not check for prices elsewhere, but according to Zondervan, in addition to Amazon it is available at iTunes, Barnes & Noble, and Google Play.
