It should never replace anyones study bible, and for the person who wants to really dive into the Scriptures, The Voice is not for them. However, I believe The Voice is great for a younger audience, or a person who has never read the Bible, in order to introduce them to the Scriptures. Though again, for someone who really wants to get in The Word in a deeper way, I would def suggest the ESV or NASB. I do like the dialogue boxes and the commentary, again, for the person new to the Bible, these things would be very helpful. I think when you first start reading the Scripture, if you are using a study bible the subnotes sometimes take you away from the story, and makes reading tedious. That is not an issue with The Voice. I would also agree about the term "Liberating King". For me it was just an annoyance, and yes Jesus is so much more.
