In the past few years, I've been trying to read through a different translation of the Bible each year. The Orthodox Study Bible is interesting in that it includes the Apocrypha (some neat stuff in there!), and the OT translation is taken from the Septuagint (Greek translation of the Hebrew OT). The NT is, rather disappointingly, the NKJV. I found myself scratching my head a few times, wondering at NKJV's translation of the Greek.

God's word readable, friendly, and timeless. The new Testament here is based on the Septuagint and is wonderful!
it's God's word with notes and art by some of the earliest known church fathers and mothers

My favourite edition of the Bible. The insights, usually in the form of select commentary from the Early Church Fathers, are worth the price of admission alone. It's like a guided tour through the Holy Scriptures by some of Orthodoxy's greatest theologians.
Quite a bit better than the original edition, and made more valuable by the new Septuagint translation.
LOVE.
Thank You, LORD G-D..
