CSB Study Bible for Women



The most comprehensive study Bible ever prepared for women and by women, the CSB Study Bible for Women invites you to explore the riches of God’s Word. Follow God’s grand story across the Bible, guided by threads of specialized study that explain essential doctrines, answer hard questions, discuss biblical womanhood, and apply truth to our hearts and lives.

The CSB Study Bible for Women is edited by Dr. Dorothy Kelley Patterson and Dr. Rhonda Harrington Kelley, both long-time women’s ministry leaders, authors and seminary professors at two of the nation’s most respected seminaries. As you learn from these women extensively educated in Biblical studies and languages and passionate about God’s Word, you will be equipped in turn to mentor others in the truth and hope found in Scripture.

Features include:
6,490 extensive study notes
Over 500 word studies, 25 full-color maps and reconstructions, and 95 charts
Introductions to each book of the Bible
A comprehensive concordance including every woman and reference to women in the Bible
Threads of specialized study woven throughout, pointing to God’s larger story:
Biblical Womanhood articles
Answers to “Hard Questions”
Character profiles
Doctrinal notes
“Written on My Heart” applications
Smyth-sewn binding
Two-column text in 9.25-point type


 I was able to get my hands on a hardcover copy, however it’s also is available in a teal LeatherTouch with floral design ( which I absolutely love), and brown LeatherTouch with an etched design up the side. The print inside is full color including beautiful floral designs on each page introducing a new book.

The introduction to a book of the Bible includes answers to some questions like “who wrote it?” and “when was it written?” it is then followed by why women should read it and how it should be read. There is an outline along with a timeline on the bottom of the page as a footnote.

I absolutely love this study Bible! I’ve been doing a lot of talking about it already! Not to discredit Bibles that are solely “devotional,” but I’ve been looking for years for a women’s study Bible that had more. I wanted the study and the devotional notes all in one Bible. This Bible has managed to put it all together beautifully. I honestly can’t recommend it enough!The print size is excellent and the text is easy to read and clear translation.

The hardcover is very lovely and feminine.  It has full-color maps and splashes of color throughout the Bible. This would make a lovely gift, or just for your own resource.


*I received a complimentary copy from Lifeway Publishers in hopes of an honest review. I was not obligated to give a positive review. Thoughts and opinions expressed are mine alone.
