the "companion bible" is the best bible i've come across.

it's the best bible i've seen. it's kjv, but in the margins they note all the various differences in translations across the different texts and manuscripts, and differences in meaning if the translation was off. really interesting appendixes. no-BS approach to making available what the original texts said in their original meaning. tons of cross reference notes. references to historical records and reflects a knowledge of the more esoteric hebrew practices and deeper meanings. the compiler is clearly inspired, devoted and is also versed on mystery schools (not in the positive sense, is critical), other ancient religions (also not in the positive sense but has clearly done their research), and all kinds stuff you don't normally see cited in bibles, especially not a thorough and deeper critical sense. there is an almost autistic attention to succinct meaningful esoteric and exoteric detail across many categories of knowledge and insightful cross references. it is non-theological, and many christians would take issue with it because they prefer certain translations over what the actual scriptures say. there is no translation in existence which is 100%/not flawed, you actually have to look at the original language scriptures, and have knowledge of many different languages.
as a general rule, the newer the translation, the more pozzed it is.
also watch out for theological study bibles where people inject their own theology. the companion bible does a really good job of not doing that (was made with this purpose in mind in part)
