Great study aid

This is a very informative and helpful book for your average person who is studying the Bible. It is easily understood and very easily navigated. It is written on a book by book basis and has a good index and lots of information. I highly recommed it for preachers and laymen alike.

A Wonderful Guide To The Bible

I have been studying the Bible for 51 years. I found this handbook to be one of the best tools that I have seen in all those years to reference each book of the Bible. It gives an abundance of reliable information for each of the books. The book has many features which are too numerous to put here but the author has placed a synopsis of each book that has those things which every believer should be familiar with. If you're looking for a great reference book for the Bible that is comprehensive yet easy to read and understand then I recommend this book.

"The finest single Bible handbook on Planet Earth"

I've taught the Word of God for over thirty years, and have a large library with hundreds of books. I say this only to qualify the statement made in the title. If one was to own only one Bible handbook with which to study and teach the Scriptures, this is it. From archaeology, to science, to seed thoughts for sermons, to customs, to statistics, to hundreds of outlines--this handbook is as inexhaustible as it is indispensable. It is so voluminous, it has several separate indexes (which sometimes are a bit confusing). For any minister or teacher who wants many encyclopedia's worth of reference material in one single book, this is the book to beg for, borrow, or steal. Formally entitled "Boyd's Bible Handbook", this work will give the reader a lifetime of useful material--always--always--being careful to exalt Christ in all the Bible. (I spent 3 hours on just 'prayer' alone!) The book is thoroughly researched (as of 1980), and references are fully cited. In short, this work is a masterpiece. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Praise God!

I would like to say thank you for this book, it has trutly been a blessing to me now that i've been called to preach. It has helped me in studying the word of God and understanding it better. It has also helped me to walk in my destiny. It has helped me to prepare a sermon and also teach my kids. I have told all of my christians believer about this book and they all going to purchase it also. thank you amozon for making this possible.

An Awesome Guide to THE BOOK.

This Handbook is not only informative but also a reverent guide to HIS WORD. There are many devotionals for each and every book and like a prism, reflects many aspects of HIS WORD that even a devout student has probably not considered. For example, "Christ in the Grave Three Days and Three Nights" (p. 467) gives an interesting and reasoned suggestion for Christ having been crucified on Thursday -- supporting Christ's own words in a literal and exact prediction as opposed to simply omitting the 3 nights portion of the prediction when trying to uderstand the Crucifixion/Resurrection timetable. The introduction of this Handbook is titled "The Bible Palace" and approaches Our Father's Love Letter (the Holy Bible) with a delectable sample of its enticing morsels: "It is the Word of the living God and is (1) Indestructible (Matt 24:35); (2) Incorruptible (1 Pet 1:24-25); (3) Indispensable (Deut 8:3; Matt 4:4; Job 23:12); (4) Infallible (Matt 5:18); (5) Inexhaustible (Psalm 92:5) . . . God thought it, Christ wrought it, the Holy Spirit brought it, the devil fought it, but I got it." And I would recommend any student, lover of the Word, or honest seeker buy this book -- you won't be able to resist jumping in and swimming in this delicious, nourishing Milk of the Word. This is one of those books which is truly a bargain, especially since it reveals many not-so-obvious gems contained within the Pearl Beyond Price!
