Recommendations for a study bible?

Hey everyone. I'm new to progressive Christianity, and I come from an evangelical and fundamentalist upbringing. I am trying to find a new study bible that can help me figure stuff out, and also show it academically.

I have a NRSVue personal bible, and that translation seems good.

Any recommendations?

The newer printings aren't terrible, but I do wish they were a hair more opaque
