I like these also but my favorite is the NET. There are more than 60,000 translator's notes that give extensive information on everything: why certain words/phrases were chosen (with alternatives given), doctrinal discussions, etc. You can read it (with the notes) on biblegateway.com

The NET is fantastic! I knew someone on the forums would say that translation.
Thanks for posting :)

The Companion Bible, a KJV study Bible put together by 19th century Christian scholar E.W. Bullinger, out-classes them all, in my opinion, and I say that even though I do not agree with every doctrine Bullinger accepted, like the Pre-trib Rapture theory, a popular doctrine of the 1800's that he succumbed to. Nevertheless, his research and documentation was top notch.
