The Macarthur Study Bible

John MacArthur

The MacArthur Study Bible, first issued in 1997, is a study Bible edited by evangelical preacher John F. MacArthur. It includes introductions and annotations to the 66 books of the Protestant Bible, along with charts, maps, study notes, Biblical harmonies, and appendices. MacArthur wrote more than half of the 20,000 entries himself and reworked many others written by faculty from The Master's Seminary. The Bible is available in several translations, including the New King James Version, New American Standard Bible, English Standard Version, Legacy Standard Bible, and New International Version, as well as in Spanish, German, French, Italian, and Portuguese. The second edition features updated and improved study notes, expanded maps and charts, and other enhanced study tools.

Bible

The Bible is a comprehensive collection of texts that include historical accounts, prophetic messages, wisdom literature, gospel accounts, letters, and apocalyptic writings. The Old Testament, which includes the Torah (Pentateuch), Neviʾim (Prophets), and Ketuvim (Writings), narrates the history and faith of the Israelites. The New Testament focuses on the life, teachings, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ and the early Christian church. It includes the Gospels, Acts of the Apostles, Epistles, and the Book of Revelation.

Today, we reflect on the life and legacy of Pastor John MacArthur, who passed away on Monday, leaving an indelible mark as a faithful expositor of God’s word. We explore his unwavering commitment to preaching the gospel, his bold stand against cultural and political pressures, and his profound impact on millions through Grace Community Church and his global ministry, Grace to You. We highlight key moments from his sermons and interviews, showcasing his courage in defending biblical truth and his tender heart for the lost. Finally, we celebrate his eternal reward in the presence of his Savior and his encouragement to embrace the hope of the gospel he so passionately proclaimed.
