Happy Palm Lord's Day to all of you!

Sorry for the frequent questions; I simply find y'all's perspective so very helpful and insightful. Always have here in TAW.

I was wondering if any would be willing to share their opinions and/or experience of the Orthodox Study Bible (OSB) published by Thomas Nelson in 2008. I recently acquired the text myself as part of my continual Biblical studies as a Reader in the Latin Church. I am excited to read a copy of the Scriptures steeped in the spirituality of my Eastern Orthodox brothers and sisters, as well as the Byzantine lectionary tradition.

I have read both good things and criticisms of the text online, so I wanted to get some perspectives on the OSB from those who might use it in their spiritual life or in study.

May your Holy Week be most blessed!

It's the one I use, and I have yet to find anything better as I find the insight on the passages of Scripture helpful. As E.C. mentioned I'd always appreciate more insight of course!

Also it was recommended to me by my priest.

I hope you had a blessed Easter!
