the Key Word KJV study bible is what I use and here's why:
It has key words in the bible coded to Strong's Hebrew and Greek Numbering system.
the back of the Bible contains an expanded Hebrew and Greek dictionary, the author of the Greek Dictionary and the editor of the Bible is Spiros Zodhiates, Greek is his native tongue and he is a biblical Greek scholar.
The NT has codes in the text that identify and the grammatical forms of New Testament words. Very helpful in interpreting the bible.
the thing I like about those two main features is that they can be used without any kind of theological bias or lean, However I do very much like the study notes in the text because they are dispensational, which I believe is the most biblical hermeneutic system.
It also has a great concordance, which has the meanings of names in the Bible.
I would also recommend the Defined King James Bible by D.A. Waite, it has no notes, but has all uncommon,rare, and archaic words defined in footnotes.
Some other good study bibles would be the Old Scofield Reference Bible, and the Ryrie Study Bible.

Good golly! How thick is that Bible with all of that in there? LOL
Hi Ann , good to hear from you too and thanks for the prayers. I had a stroke 6 months ago and it's been a long hard road back.
Oh goodness! I'm sure it has been!!! Now I know how to pray and will be praying for continued healing and for strength to get through that healing.
about 1.75-2 inches. it is definately a larger size. but for me it's manageable and worth it for me.
Been using this Bible for the last 22 years. I highly recommend it............

All depends on what you view as being the right way to approach the meaning of the Bible!
Thompson is very good choice to get the meat of the scriptures
Ryrie/MacArthur/Scofield if you lean Dispy
The KjV by Holman, with HCSB study notes
KJV with Niv study notes adopted to it
Henry Morris Study Bible
Heritage of the Reformation Bible
A Lot depends on what tradition coming from!
I recommend a repro AV 1611 as a study Bible for everyone, as well as the "study Bibles" named above by various people. I recommend them all, to help develop one's overview of Scripture, same as I recommend various Bible translations for the same purpose. This gives the HOLY SPIRIT more to work with as He teaches you the various precepts of Scripture.
The 1611 would be very hard for even the KJVO to read wit understanding...
So it DOES have a Dispensational theological bias and lean, as does Scofield an Ryrie.
You obviously have never seen a real 1611. What do you find so difficult with:
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the Heauen, and the Earth.
2 And the earth was without forme, and voyd, and darkenesse was vpon the face of the deepe: and the Spirit of God mooued vpon the face of the waters.
3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
Not really, once you get used to print and the spelling, reading it is like reading any other KJV.

That reads like they were having a gift of "tongues: going on!
I like the Old Scofield. I ignore the notes for the most part. But, the price is usually right and the references are good. I particularly like the concordance in the back. It's a good place to start before I break out my Strongs (e or dead tree).
Same here. I don't like his notes. Cross references are good.
Local Church Bible Publishers has these at a great price.

I like the Henry Morris Study Bible. Has young earth creationist notes and articles. With a Baptist leaning and has cross references and translation helps at the end of the verse. I really like this King James Bible I got the brown calfskin edition off Christian book distribution for 99 dollars which is 50 dollars off retail. Also comes in black genuine leather and hardback.
