HCSB Study Bible Notes
The HCSB Study Bible is highly regarded for its excellent organization and readability. This resource was developed in direct response to what consumer focus groups asked for, and the resulting study Bible is insightful, accessible, and a pleasure to read. This module conveniently places supplemental resources in the same sections as the biblical texts to which they are related, making it easy to find word studies, maps, images, and charts that are relevant to the passage you are studying. When you want to go deeper, there are book introductions, outlines, timelines, a concordance, and more. There is even a one-year Bible reading plan included as its own distinct module for your convenience.
Please note that these study Bible notes do not include a translation of the Bible, but they can be added in a parallel pane with any Bible translation you own in Accordance.
