Bible Study in Layman’s Terms
Biblical commentary has been around almost as long as the good book itself. It’s only natural for people to internalize their readings and form unique interpretations of the source material. The Thompson reference bible takes that concept to the next level, serving as a traditional bible with a study guide built right in. The company’s revolutionary “chain-reference” system provides links between bible topics that share a similar theme.
The first reference bibles were created with the aim of appealing to a broad audience – not just to pastors, priests and scholars. Many of them feature helpful illustrations, character studies of prominent biblical heroes and even a chronology of prophecies. In short, the reference portion adds enough supplemental material to make bible study an absorbing learning experience for all concerned.
