Relevant Study Bibles with Dr. Harriet Hill

If you’re like me, you have a mixed relationship with study bibles. Once in a while they can give you a jolt of amazing insight or new understanding, but many times you find the notes redundant, useless, painfully obvious, filler fluff, or just simply irrelevant. Our tendency as readers is to ignore these problems and assume that the “professionals” know what they’re doing. But not Dr. Harriet Hill. Today we’re going to dive into her careful analysis of some major study bibles and see how they can improve. Spoiler: it’ll make you laugh and cry. There’s lots to learn and tons of room for improvement in the study Bible world.
