Product Description
Nave's Topical Bible, the best known of all topical bibles, has been a valuable Bible-study reference and a best-seller for more than 75 years. It is a comprehensive digest of over 20,000 topics and subtopics with more than 100,000 associated Scripture references. The most significant references for each topic actually include the full text of the verse cited-saving the need to separately look up each verse.

Because Nave's groups verses by "idea" (or "topic"), it offers a better overview of relevant Scriptures than a concordance, which only lists or indexes verses according to specific words. This edition also includes the helpful Scripture index (left out of some other editions), which makes it possible for the reader studying a particular biblical text to locate every topic and grouping of Scripture in Nave's whenever a particular verse is included. That way, it is possible for the reader to study either all the verses related to a particular topic or all the topics related to a particular verse-it works both ways.

For the pastor or teacher interested in saving hours of time but not willing to give their second best, and for anyone wanting to be challenged by what God has to say about a given subject, Nave's Topical Bible is the passport that will allow immediate and successful entry to the many points of interest.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Have, April 13, 2000

By	19YCopy5 (CPR/MECKeag) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Nave's Topical Bible (Hardcover)

If I was told that I could only have my Bible plus three other books for sermon and Bible study preparation, the three choices would have to be Strongs concordance, a good Bible dictionary, and Nave's Topical Bible.

Nave's has more than 20,000 topics leading to over 100,000 scripture references providing Biblical insight on a multitude of subjects. Just as importantly, this is no flash-in-the-pan, here-today-out-of-print-tomorrow study tool. Nave's has withstood the test of time and met the needs of millions of users down through the years. This is a work that no clergyman or serious reader of the Bible should be without.

5.0 out of 5 stars A topical Bible Excellent for Study and Preparing Messages, March 9, 2004

By	Joseph J. Slevin (Carlsbad, CA United States) - See all my reviews

A good topical Bible is needed for subject studies and for preparing messages.

The Nave's Topical Bible can assist the novice and the expert review scriptures by topic and it tends to be pretty exhaustive. There are times where other related scriptures are listed as opposed to quoted. This is a great resource if we are seeking scriptures to instruct us on various topics about living life. Also subjects about people in scripture or just any topic is listed.

Anyone using this can do so as a jump off point to additional studies and Naves is the best for your buck.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Valuable Help, Well Bound, July 3, 2001

By	Charity (The Beautiful Pacific Northwest) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Nave's Topical Bible (Hardcover)

This is an indispensable tool in any family's study of the Bible, particularly for young readers, for topical studies or for moments when you would use Strong's but cannot remember the exact wording of a passage.

The binding of this edition is of better quality than the slightly less expensive version offered by Nelson, and while the paper stock will tend to yellow and brittle with age, this edition should be able to take a decade or two of heavy use without exhaustion.

An excellent, affordable resource. Highly recommended.
