==Study aids==
* A subject line at the beginning of each book summarizes its spiritual significance.
* A detailed outline precedes each book and is embedded throughout the text, providing an overview of the structure of the book.
* Footnotes stress the translators' view of revelation of the truth, the spiritual light, and the supply of life more than history, geography, and persons. The New Testament footnotes were written by Lee, while those of the Old Testament were compiled from his literary corpus by the editorial team.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Lee|first1=Jonathan H.

''Religious Education'' 85.2 (1990): 186-187.</ref> and alternative translations found in other English versions or in academic scholarship. Often, the clarity forfeited in a literal translation of the original text is addressed and compensated for in the footnotes. The Recovery Version contains over 15,000 footnotes.
* Marginal cross references lead to other verses with the same expressions and facts and to other matters related to the spiritual revelation in the Word.
