There might be an LDS study Bible come out, if some of us can get our act together. About 7 or 8 people have come together to write a Bible (actually just the NT at this time) -- my assignment, for instance, is Romans and I and II Corinthians. The problem has been, in addition to getting a committee to work together (different people have different levels of enthusiasm and different abilities) there is a commercial consideration I'm not at liberty to talk about. We're waiting for that to be resolved. As a teaser, let me tell you that John Tvedtnes of FARMS has been assigned all of the Johannine material (the Gospel of John and the epistles), and will be co-author of the section on Revelation.
