Defender's Bible Expanded

Defender's BibleIn 1995 Dr. Henry Morris, ICR's founder, released The Defender's Study Bible, a study Bible "defending" all Scripture passages which had come under attack, and presenting creation and inerrancy as foundational doctrines of Christianity. Many consider this his life's work, containing the results of 50 years of Bible study and belief. Over 6,400 explanatory notes and 18 appendices aid the reader in understanding even the difficult passages, especially those which deal with the vital doctrine of creation.

Now he has added 3,000 more notes and two new appendices to increase its value and usability. World Bible Publishers has released this new edition in both true leather or hardback, complete with maps, concordance, and index to notes. Its ministry will no doubt be expanded by this new edition.

Many have commented on the profound content in the notes. They stem from decades of scholarship on the part of Dr. Morris, but especially an unswerving faith in Scripture and the Author of Scripture. The Bible can be believed just like it's written. That's his testimony, and that's the message of this Study Bible.

The Defender's Study Bible is integrated into our search features. Verses found in search results are linked to the Hebrew and Greek definitions from Strong's Concordance. You can also page through each book and chapter of the bible, starting here with Genesis 1:1.
