AMPLIFIED 2015 | Isaiah 64:6 For we all have become like one who is [ceremonially] unclean [like a leper], And all our deeds of righteousness are like filthy rags; We all wither and decay like a leaf, And our wickedness [our sin, our injustice, our wrongdoing], like the wind, takes us away [carrying us far from God's favor, toward destruction].

Bible Note: starfire: I'm pleased that you found my capsule commentary on the passage in Isaiah helpful and thank you for your thoughtfulness in responding. ...... I note in your user profile that you are perhaps searching for another study Bible and offer herewith a suggestion or two. I've found John MacArthur's to be very useful, as have many other registrants of this Forum. He uses the NKJV text. Charles Ryrie's, which is available in the NASB, is also good. He has an enviable talent for being able to say things clearly without being overly verbose. A third I use and like is called "The King James Study Bible" publish by Nelson. It is, as the title clearly indicates, based on the KJV. All these study Bibles are conservative evangelical, with the latter having a distinctly Baptist orientation, which is fine with me since I'm Southern Baptist (SBC). I have a half dozen other study Bibles and a couple of commentaries in my personal library, but the three I mentioned are the ones I go to more frequently than the others. You mentioned that you have the Life Application Bible. That's a favorite with some here on the Forum. I'm familiar with it but don't own a copy and therefore don't use it, but that doesn't mean I have any disdain for it at all. My bookshelves are bulging as it is and one is forced eventually to "be content with such things as ye have" as the writer of Hebrews says, although it is more than likely he wasn't writing about study Bibles. :-) --Hank |
