Compare Psalm 3 in the 1977 edition and 1995 edition.
The original ebooks from Lockman are pretty bad. Neither include the translators' notes and the formatting is pretty poor. There's a newer edition at Amazon that includes the notes, but I haven't looked at it, since it's not available in epub. Thomas Nelson's study Bible editions are fine, though. |
Thanks for the feedback! The 1995 edition sounds more like my speed. I tried the sample at Amazon and the formatting on the Lockman edition is indeed quite lacking. Thomas Nelson's editions seem to come only in two options: The MacArthur Study Bible (I already own this in NKJV) and the Charles F. Stanley Life Principles Bible (not keen on Charles Stanley's theology so I'll skip this one). As you noted, I can't seem to find the NASB in epub; I may have to overlook my aversion to the formatting and just pick one up from Amazon.
