This single resource, just under 2,500 pages, gives readers the opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the Word of God in a way, according to the evangelist, that the Holy Spirit desires. Each expository note draws from six decades of Brother Swaggart’s personal Bible study and the insights he’s collected from some of the finest Hebrew and Greek scholars in the world. Since the primary goal of this project was to help explain the Scriptures, the word expositor was chosen for its title. This user-friendly format seems to please readers who appreciate the in-depth commentary so visually close to the sacred text. All Scripture text inside the ESB is typeset in black, making the Word of God stand out against the red expository notes that follow nearly every verse. In 2001, the Holy Spirit showed Brother Swaggart the format of how this Bible would be presented, which he and his staff followed to the letter, making the ESB one of the most unique Bibles in the world today. As understanding of “Jesus Christ and Him crucified” continued to unfold, Brother Swaggart knew this message would serve as the cornerstone for the study Bible he had been instructed by the Lord to produce, as well as for his worldwide ministry.

In the latter part of that decade (1997), the Lord revealed to him the Message of the Cross, which revolutionized the evangelist’s life and ministry. In the 1990s, the Lord impressed upon Brother Swaggart to produce a study Bible that would be easy for preachers and laypeople alike to read and understand.


To date, the ESB has been translated from its original English version into Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish, and has sold more than 1.8 million copies. This app contains an interactive version of “The Expositor’s Study Bible” by Evangelist Jimmy Swaggart, an audio version of “The Expositor’s Study Bible” as well as “The Evangelist Magazine” – the monthly publication of Jimmy Swaggart Ministries.Įvangelist Jimmy Swaggart is the author of The Expositor’s Study Bible (ESB).
