I wanted to read the bible but was put off on the traditional books because of the archaic language.  This book is wonderful.  It is easy to read and the footnotes are great.  The footnotes tell some of the history of the specific section of the chapter.  They explain customs of the the people, sometimes any controvery over the translation and other facts that really enrich the reading to me.I find the extra information in the footnotes really make reading the Bible more understandable and enjoyable.  If you are like me and want more background to the Bible stories, this is the book for you.
