All of these edi­tions of the NAB con­tain the stand­ard NAB mildly crit­i­cal explan­a­tory notes (mod­er­ate amount), cross ref­er­ences (mod­er­ate amount) and book intro­duc­tions. All also pos­sess an impri­ma­tur.  All of these edi­tions place both the study notes and the cross ref­er­ences at the end of each book.  This makes the bible easier to read, but makes it fairly dif­fi­cult to put the study notes or cross ref­er­ences to use.  You can see edi­tions with the notes and cross ref­er­ences placed on the bot­tom of each page here.  Listed in order of rec­om­men­da­tion.
