Logos Complete Study Bible

The Logos Complete Study Bible is a study Bible published in 1972 by Logos International. It is based upon The Cross-Reference Bible, published in 1910.

The Logos Bible uses the 1901 American Standard Version (ASV) translation of the Bible, which has been called "The Rock of Biblical Honesty" by Bible scholars. This study Bible has:

No further editions were published. The company itself failed not many years after publication.

The Scripture text, variant renderings and readings, topical analyses, most of the Preface, and Index of the Logos International Study Bible are almost entirely photo-reprinted from "The Cross-Reference Bible containing the Old and New Testaments", edited by Monser and copyright by him in 1910. The title page of the 1910 edition says "The text of this Bible is that of the American Standard Edition of the Revised Bible (Copyright, 1901, by Thomas Nelson & Sons), With Variorum Readings and Renderings, With Topical Analysis and Cross References." The Cross-Reference Bible was reprinted several times after 1910, including once by Baker Book House in 1959. The Logos edition excluded the following items from the Cross-Reference Bible:

The Logos edition added:

The following example is part of the first column of page 1756, which includes parts of Matthew 2:23 and 3:1:

The letter a that appears after the word "city" in the first line corresponds to the "a" in the left margin, where there is an entry containing "Gen. 4:17". In the text of Genesis chapter 4, verse 17, the word "city" also appears, where it has the symbol "‡" next to it. At the bottom of that page, there is an article entitled CITY, next to the symbol "‡", which has nearly all of the references in the Bible to the word or idea of "city". In the fourth line, there is a superscript "1" next to the word "that". The corresponding margin entry has the letter "Q", followed by a reference to Isaiah, chapter 11, verse 1. This indicates that the passage that follows the letter, in the text, is a quotation from the Old Testament. Similarly, parallel passages are indicated with a P, as used under footnote "e" for chapter 3 verse 1 in the left margin.

At the bottom of the page are two more examples of in-text articles. The article for Nazareth is referenced from verse 23 with the symbol "*", and the article for John the Baptist, with the symbol "†". The latter article continues for two more columns in the text.
