The NASB 1977 Thompson Chain-Reference Bible compels you to experience the harmony of God's Word with an optimal cross-reference system that has been enriching the spiritual hearts and minds of believers for over 100 years. Scripture is presented with a reference system that acts as a guide, not merely a tool, allowing you to explore a specific topic methodically through the entirety of the text. Relevant scripture verses are linked together, with over 100,000 topical references and 8,000 chain topics, enabling a study of the Bible that is relevant for all of the faithful- from those interested in what the Bible says about a particular word of interest to those wanting to prepare a sermon that delivers the unity of God's special revelation to a divided world. Some biblical study helps can be cluttered in with God's Word; unintentionally distracting the reader from the simplicity of biblical truth. You will find, however, that the NASB 1977 Thompson Chain-Reference Bible's highly structured and organized cross-reference system has been refined and updated through the years to deliver a reading and study experience that will encourage you to explore Scripture and discover what God has revealed about topics that interest you.
