The Different Bible Study Tools
Your Bible study can be very constructive by just reading and meditating on the Bible all on its own. Actually such meditation is vital to spiritual expansion. But to learn more, having the proper tools is vital.
Obtaining a study Bible is the place to start. But as your Bible studies increase, you might want to invest in some more specialised books. Some to explore :
Bible Book.
Provides a great deal of information about each book of the Bible, life in Bible times, history of the English Bible, and so on.
Bible Compendium.
Temporary articles on each major subject, word, and person in the Old and new Testaments. You'll often find helpful summaries of Bible teaching.
Bible Concordance.
While study Bibles offer an abridged concordance, you can find an uncondensed concordance that helps you find every occurrence of a selected word in the Bible. The best-known of these is Strong's Concordance ( based mostly on the KJV ) which identifies each Greek and Hebrew word, and gives it a brief definition and a number. Now concordances are available for the NIV and NASB containing Strong's numbering system.
Bible Commentary.
Bible commentaries supply an overview and running explanation of each book of the Bible. A neat place to start could be with a reasonably latest one-volume commentary on the whole Bible. There are also a bunch of inexpensive commentary series available that cover each book in the Bible, if you'd like to study a selected book in bigger depth.
Word Study tools include an interlinear New Testament that shows the Greek text on one line and a literal English interpretation below it. A Greek-English Lexicon provides clear, exact definitions for each Greek word in the New Testament. A number of these are keyed to Strong's numbers so they can be used by scholars who haven't learned to read Greek letters. Similar resources are available for Hebrew as well .
Topical Bible.
A topical Bible will give a lot scripture references listed by subject. Great if you are doing a topical or thematic Religious study.
Bible Atlas.
An atlas contains more than detailed maps. It also describes the geography and places of the Bible, usually with entrancing illustrations and archeological details.
Nowadays many bible study materials are available on the net at no charge. You can also get free bible study programs for your computer. If you need advice on Bible study books, ask your preacher or the boss of a Christian book shop. If you were to ask a chippie to build a home with hand tools he could possibly do it. But with electrical tools the job will go quicker so that the carpenter will have time to spend on the details. Religious study books are tools that help cut the time you need spend on Bible learning, so you can get to the really important matters of your study -- seeking after god himself.
