The SBL Study Bible incorporates the latest Dead Sea Scrolls scholarship integrated into your Bible, using the new NRSVue text. We have the advantage that this is annotated, with an excellent companion web site. It's the closest thing to an updated edition of the still highly valuable Flint, Abegg and Ulrich Dead Sea Scrolls Bible, basically. Who wouldn't want this valuable resource at their fingertips, on the go, anytime, anywhere. I debated getting this in Kindle. Why didn't I? You'll find the table of contents, quite unique to Google Play Books, extremely useful, and the content layout generally superior to what you'll see in Kindle on Android mobile and web. The mobile page-turning is reassuring compared to Kindles endless scrolling where you're never really sure exactly what you're at, nor what you're bookmarking. Google makes reading a better experience for your studies.

My understanding is that the intention of this book is an opportunity to invite a Mechanic or a group of Mechanics. I can't wait for the sequel!

not the easiest to navigate but still scripturally sound
