The Woman's Study Bible poignantly reveals the Word of God to women, inviting them to receive God's truth for balance, hope, and transformation. Special features designed to speak to a woman's heart appear throughout the Bible text, revealing Scripture-based insights about how godly womanhood grows from a woman's identity as a Christ-follower and a child of the Kingdom.
Now with a beautiful full-color redesign, The Woman's Study Bible reflects the contributions of more than 80 women from a wide variety of ethnic, denominational, educational, and occupational backgrounds. Since the publication of the first edition of The Woman's Study Bible under the editorial guidance of Dorothy Kelley Patterson and Rhonda Harrington Kelley, this landmark study Bible has sold more than 1.5 million copies.

Here's my review of this beautiful Bible:
First, I would like to extend a heartfelt “Thank you” to
Thomas Nelson for sending me a copy of "The NKJV Women's Study Bible" to
review for them. I am truly grateful for this generosity. I really appreciate
the time, effort and expense it takes to make a reviewer copy available to me.
NKJV Women’s Study Bible is not only a beautiful, full color
version of the Scriptures. There are
many helps in this valuable resource to enhance your study and quiet time with
Jesus. I used this Bible as my primary
source for my personal quiet time as well as a post personal study review
source for my BSF (Bible Study Fellowship) study of the Gospel of John.
The all-color interiors make headings and special
information boxes *pop*! This can
greatly enhance your study if you’re looking to supplement your Scripture
reading with contemporary application. I thought that this Bible may have been a bit
too colorful and distracting to help me actually study the Word, but here is an
instance I experienced where the exact opposite happened:
I went to a passage of Scripture and read it. I was still a bit confused about the meaning
so I prayerfully went to the index of the special tools in the back of the
Bible before the concordance. I looked
up the topic of my confusion and discovered an article about that very subject
in another book of the Bible. I went to
the article and read it and all the Scripture references it cited. I was blown away that the Scripture
references addressed the very point of my confusion and cleared up my
thinking. I will totally recommend
prayerful use of this Bible!

Two chapters on Mystery, Babylon. She is the great whore. She rides the beast. She is the mother of harlots. She is clothed in purple, scarlet and gold. She reigns over kings of the earth. She is caressed by the world. She is sustained by the dragon (Satan). Chuck reminds us that the church of Thyatira is promised to go through the tribulation. This is how. If you recall the earlier lessons, the church of Thyatira was called the Medieval Church. Mystery, Babylon isn’t the beast, but she rides the beast. There are ten clues in chapter 17 regarding her identity: she’s a prostitute; she has universal influence all over the world; she is seated upon the beast; she is expensively adorned and outwardly attractive; she’s a utensil in God’s service but a counterfeit; she’s a mystery linked with the Babylon of Nimrod; she’s the mother of prostitutes who has spiritual offspring; she’s a persecutor of Christians...
