...........Yeah, but I live in Coquitlam, BC, (Canada) and my local library doesn't have it - already checked. I might be able to get it transferred or ordered in though. Will keep trying.

.............I would still get a regular Bible from the library. Study Bibles, or Student Bibles, usually have all sorts of extra commentaries in them, and it can bog you down. Also, it takes away from the effect that was intended by the writer. That's just as bad as reading versions that people have re-written to suit themselves. So in this case, less is more.

Would you trust me on this one? Do not read the commentaries or any excess information, ok? You should start with the Gospel of John in the New Testement too. Would you?
