What other study Bibles follow the Young Earth Chronology in their notes and articles?

It might be helpful to start a list of YEC study Bibles.

Yes, I love lists! :)

Not directly related to YEC Study Bibles, but I remember when I was young it seemed like a lot of Bibles had the James Ussher chronology in them, so that, for example, you would see 4004 BC in the first chapter of Genesis. While not a study Bible, the chronology of Ussher promoted a "young earth creation." Seems like you don't find many Bibles with this chronology anymore.

Perhaps this might be added to the list with the Henry Morris KJV Study Bible:

MacArthur Study Bible (apparently available in the ESV, NASB, NKJV, & NIV)

I do not have this Bible, but MacArthur is a young-earth creationist so I expect the notes to support that view. John R. Rice was a 6-day creationist, so his study Bible might fit as well. Others are likely more informed on these two Bibles than I.

If it advocates for a 6000 year old planet..? Then its a waste of paper..
Its the 21st century. Anyone still advocating for a 6000 year old earth in this day and age needs to spend more time in a library.
It's scientifically impossible for the earth to be "young".
We KNOW this.. Heck, geologists way back in the late 1700s figured this out.
Today, we have ice cores, river varves, magnetic pole reversals, radiometric dating, etc.
For the earth to be "young", EVERY field of earth and life science we have from Geology, Paleontology, Physics, Zoology, Genetics, Climatology and Ice Coring, Cosmology, Biogeography, Anthropology,, etc, would ALL have to be wrong.
These are but a few in a long list of independent fields of science that ALL show that the earth is NOT "young".

Yes, the age of the earth and universe -- and what the Bible says about this age -- can bring division for some. However, I think it is important to include various interpretations of the age of the earth and universe (and size of the universe) in our study of the Bible.

I added this thread to the Baptist Board because I want to add YEC study Bibles and commentaries to my personal library. I am not looking to debate the topic. But just asking BB members for their suggestions for references.

Oh boy, here we go. So many assumptions with science. Let me ask you this, Adam, created as a baby or fully developed?

I would broaden this out a bit, as there might be some like me who while not holding to just 6000 years date, do not hold to millions, much less billions of years dating!
