Experience God's character more deeply by studying his names

One of the best ways to get to know God on a deeper level is to know his names and titles as revealed in Scripture. Now the bestselling author of Praying the Names of God and Praying the Names of Jesus uncovers the richness of God's character and love found in his names right within the Bible text.

The Names of God Bible restores more than 10,000 occurrences of specific names of God--like Yahweh, El Shadday, El Elyon, and Adonay--to help readers connect with the Hebrew roots of their Christian faith and experience a deeper understanding of God's character. Perfect for personal study, prayer, and reflection, The Names of God Bible includes these special features:

• More than 10,000 names and titles of God restored to their Hebrew equivalent and printed in brown ink to stand out within the biblical text.
• Names of God reading paths lead readers to the next reference of the name so they can pray and study the names of God throughout Scripture.

Name Pages feature

• background information associated with the most important names and titles of God
• key Scripture passages in which the name is revealed
• devotional readings for each of the featured names
• specific Bible promises connected to each of the featured names 

Calling God by Name sidebars shed light on the relationship between biblical people and the specific names they called God.
 
My Thoughts:
This Bible is beautifully laid out. It is simple and easy to use, easy to read. This Bible is the God's Word Translation. It being different from the New Living Translation I normally read, it made the scriptures feel new, different. The introductions to each book, listed the Key Names of God for the chapter. It was nice to see them gathered and explained which made studying the names of God much easier. The featured I loved was the Names of God Reading Path System at the front of the bible. It listed the various names/titles of God and the first reference, as you go to that reference, in the margin, it gives you the verse where that particular name of God appears next. This helps make studying the names of God so much simpler. You should try it out. Check out the Names of God Bible at your nearest bookseller.
