• Verse-by-verse exposition, giving special attention to passages of interest to women without sidestepping difficult-to-interpret passages 

• Charts, maps, and word studies

• Pronunciation guide for difficult proper names 

• Archaeological notes 

• Featured articles on topics of interest to women 

• Devotional insights and inspirational notes
