Description

This book is the most unique and complete topical reference Bible in print. The Thompson Chain-Reference® Study System was the brainchild of Dr. Frank Charles Thompson. Over a period of 40 years, Dr. Thompson perfected this system, which enables the student to follow a single biblical topic from Genesis to Revelation.

This material is normally printed in the margins of a Bible, which limits its use to only one translation. We've produced the Thompson Chain-Reference Bible as a commentary in PocketBible, which allows it to be used beside any Bible you have installed. The features of PocketBible allow you to sync the commentary with your Bible so that as you scroll through the text, the Thompson Chain-Reference Bible will follow along, showing you the topics and links for each verse you're reading.

A topical study can begin with the list of over 8000 topics in alphabetical order. From here you'll link to a list of verses that describe or exemplify the topic. The most important of these verses appear in bold, and for major topics, the text of the verse is reproduced right in the index. Select the first verse in the topic to begin a study. As you read each verse in PocketBible, you'll find a link to the next verse in the chain.

Or you can begin with the passage that you happen to be reading. Glance at the Thompson Chain-Reference Bible notes that are following along with your reading and you'll see a list of topics discussed in the verse. You can link from there back to the list of topics, or, if this is one of the major verses in the chain, you can link directly to the next verse.

The marginal notes also contain links to parallel passages, and the numerical list of topics includes "see also" links to related topics.

Thousands of topics and 129,500 Bible verse links make the Thompson Chain-Reference Bible the most comprehensive topical reference tool in existence.

And that's not all. The many study tools in the section called Comprehensive Bible Helps make this book a virtual mini-library. These articles include:

  • A condensed outline of the Bible with links to book introductions. These introductions themselves include links to the major topical chains that are discussed in the book.
  • A chart covering periods of Bible history.
  • An article entitled Bible Character Studies includes brief biographies of major Bible characters, with links to relevant passages and topics.
  • Bible Harmonies and Illustrated Studies is a collection of the lives and journeys of major Bible characters, with detailed maps and links to relevant passages and topics.
  • A map section includes 13 color, highly detailed maps plus indexes of archaeological sites, biblical names, cultural features, points of interest, land features, and water features.

The Thompson Chain-Reference Bible is designed for individual and group study, for young and old alike. Whether it is used for devotional reading, teaching children, preparation of Sunday school material, preaching, or for any other Bible study aims, students who love God's Word will find this reference book easy to use and ready to bring a deepened understanding to spiritual truth.
