Review
"The ESV is a dream come true for me. The rightful heir to a great line of historic translations, it provides the continuity and modern accuracy I longed for. Now the scope and theological faithfulness of the ESV Study Bible study notes is breathtaking. Oh how precious is the written Word of God."
―John Piper, Founder and Teacher, desiringGod.org; Chancellor, Bethlehem College & Seminary; author, Desiring God
"The definitive clarity and beauty of the ESV Study Bible is extraordinary. In a world where words are distorted to mean anything, it is wonderful to have complete confidence in the reliability and truth of the Bible―so clearly and persuasively demonstrated by this world-class team of Bible scholars and teachers. For everyone who wants to understand God’s Word in a deeper way, the ESV Study Bible is an outstanding resource. I will be an avid user!"
―Joni Eareckson Tada, Founder and CEO, Joni and Friends International Disability Center; author, Joni: An Unforgettable Story and Songs of Suffering
"Outstanding! The ESV Study Bible is a treasure―a beautiful volume, filled with a wealth of resources. It will be just as useful for the seminarian and long-time pastor as it will be accessible to the brand-new Christian."
―R. Albert Mohler Jr., President and Centennial Professor of Christian Theology, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
"The ESV Study Bible is an invaluable and inexhaustible resource―for those who already know and treasure God’s Word, as well as for the new generation of Bible students who have yet to discover the wonder and wealth of Scripture. I especially love the way the notes and articles highlight the great redemptive story and ‘connect the dots’ between the various portions and themes of Scripture. Full of rich insight, scholarly yet accessible―I am deeply grateful for this magnificent work."
―Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth, author; Founder, Revive Our Hearts and True Woman
"I was privileged to act as General Editor of the English Standard Version, and now that I look back on what we did in producing that version, I find myself suspecting very strongly that this was the most important thing that I have ever done for the Kingdom, and that the product of our labors is perhaps the biggest milestone in Bible translation in certainly the last half century at least, and perhaps more. And now, as Theological Editor of the ESV Study Bible, I believe that the work we have done together on this project has set an altogether new standard in study Bibles."
―J. I. Packer, Late Board of Governors’ Professor of Theology, Regent College
"The ESV Study Bible is a tour de force: innovative production, beautiful graphics, and notes by outstanding scholars packed with useful information."
―Mark Dever, Pastor, Capitol Hill Baptist Church, Washington, DC
"This is surely the most comprehensive study Bible yet! Serious students of the Bible will find this an invaluable aid to understanding the text, the background, and some key theological issues of the Bible. In addition to the reliable ESV text with notes, it has resources that no teacher or preacher should be without. Beautifully produced and accessible, it will also make a great gift for new Christians."
―Graeme Goldsworthy, Former Lecturer in Old Testament, Biblical Theology, and Hermeneutics, Moore Theological College

So I got this and it answered my calls. There are maps and illustrations when relevant, otherwise there is academic/scholarly citation and input from leading researchers in the field. I don't know what else you could ask for! Get this! ESV also has a "Guarantee" on their product.

A melhor Bíblia de Estudos que temos atualmente.
É mais completa que a NAA, além de ser colorida.
Além disso custou apenas um pouco mais (237 com desconto do app). Demorou 2 semanas para ser enviada.
A transportadora foi um ponto negativo. O código de rastreamento não funcionou direito e entregaram o produto somente à noite.
Os tamanhos de letra são bem parecidos com a Bíblia de Estudos da Fé Reformada. As referências cruzadas são exatamente as mesmas.
English:
The best study bible available today.
I'm not a native English speaker and I'm more interested in the studies than is the Bible text itself. But it's good to have the Bible text I'm one column.
My only concern was the "cover protection". As you can see in the pictures, it was just a simple paper to protect it of simple dirt. I was waiting for it to come with the plastic case I saw in other reviews but maybe I was misinformed about this.
The font sizes are ok to me. The cross references letters were larger than my Portuguese Reformation Study Bible. The studies were slightly smaller. If you have vision problems, I recommend the Large Print version.
The size of the Bible itself is perfect to me. It fits the product's description.
