NWT Study Edition

The New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures (Study Edition) is a multi-media study edition of the New World Translation (2013 Revision) (NWT).

It includes many photos and study notes as well as videos to help the learner focus and meditate on what he or she is reading.

= History = During the 2013 Annual Meeting, when the revised NWT (in English) was announced and simultaneously released in print form, the speakers made brief mention of upcoming large print, pocket size, and study editions of this new revised Bible.

At the 2015 Annual Meeting, it was revealed that the Study Edition of the New World Tranlation would include videos and other multimedia content. The first book of the Bible completed in this format, Matthew, was released on JW.org the same day, following the announcement.

The remaining gospels were completed and released online over the next two years.

JW Library was updated in December 2017 to include the ability to download and read the Study Edition, including viewing pictures and streaming of the introduction videos.

Morning worship announcement
On December 13, 2017, it was revealed to the Bethel family, during morning worship, that a decision had been made by the Governing Body ten years earlier to print a Bible with wider margins so that each one of Jehovah's Witnesses could have his own personal study Bible. This decision led to another project: revising the English text of the New World Translation (released in 2013).
