// FOUNDING SCRIPTURE:
"Teach me, O Lord, the way of your statutes; and I will keep it to the end.
Give me understanding, that I may keep your law and observe it with my whole heart. Lead me in the path of your commandments, for I delight in it.
Incline my heart to your testimonies, and not to selfish gain!"
-PSALM 119:33-36

Nice video, and a good primer for people looking to get into Bible study more (which should be all of us). I have found that not only is it good to have more than one translation, with commentaries it's also good to have more than one; you have that between the notes in your study Bible and Tony Evans commentary. When I come across a tricky passage I will consult multiple sources because theologians will sometimes bring their personal theological perspectives to their study notes/commentary. Study Bibles with study notes from multiple authors are good because they can provide checks and balances for one another; the same for commentaries. I often dig into the original languages to provide deeper insight on a given verse, and find resources that help me with that to be invaluable; the cool thing is I don't need training in Hebrew or Greek to use them. I teach Sunday school, so getting it right is critical. In that regard, two resources I use are the Hebrew-Greek Key Word Study Bible (available in multiple translations) and The New Strong's Expanded Dictionary of Bible Words. And, I just subscribed.

Thank you so much for watching, subscribing and sharing your resources! I have a few of those as well and they are super helpful! Especially the part about studying the Hebrew and Greek languages. Logos has been my favorite tool for this so far but the Strongs dictionary is definitely a part of my library.

I have the Moody commentary and the Niv application study bible

[@Iamvirginiasteward]

Ohhh I have been eyeing the Moody Commentary for a while now. I think it just might be time that I go ahead and check it out. Thank you so much for sharing more resources for us!

Great video sis!! I noticed that your study bibles had index tabs in them. Did they come that way or did you add them? Are they helpful to have?

[@Iamvirginiasteward]

Hi love! Yes, I actually added the Bible tabs separately. I do love them and find them super helpful when needing to get to a certain book/scripture quickly.
