    Is a free copy of The Pilgrim's Progress: Read & Reflect with the Classics edition, which appears to have some annotations.

    Oh, and 50% off CSB Spurgeon Study Bibles. I am sorely tempted.

    Perhaps. I've toted a HCSB and then CSB Study Bible for quite a while, and still use them when I am tasked to teach, but lately I have just been carrying a slimmer Bible and breaking out my phone with my downloaded Faithlife Study Bible if I want dig into some background or context.

    I'm wondering how a Study Bible based on a pastor's sermons instead of an academic's notes will affect my study. And if I can snag one for 25 bucks, I reckon it's go time.

    This Bible would be a nice resource to have if the person editing it is expert at Spurgeon theology, and knew the appropriate message for the bookr under discussion.

    How do you like the Csb now for study purposes?

    Alistair Begg is the editor of the Spurgeon.

    As for the CSB, I really enjoy reading it. I'm doing my current yearly read through with the LEB, and I think the two make a great team.

    Would be nice reading the thoughts of one of the great baptists in all of history!
    How are the notes and study aids of the CSB study bible?

    I think they're great, personally. Maps, charts, timelines, illustrations, words studies, historical background, and sound theology. I prefer it's notes to the Faithlife notes, but both are pretty good. I need to borrow a copy of the new NIV with D.A. Carson's notes for a test drive, though.
