What a handy dandy research tool! My favorite parts of the Topical Bible Index: Bible Insert are the quick find section on the Chronological listing of the events in Jesus life in all four gospels, the Miracles of Jesus, and the Parables of Jesus in convenient easy to read table. I have dozens of book and computer files with this information, but it is not always with me. But as a bible study teacher, I like to have this handy topical index that will fit inside my bible cover. It is concise with 500 topics that include biblical references. Fifty-five pages is a comfortable size and not too bulky to carry to class or church. It is neat and attractive with a full-color photo to denote the letters of the alphabet-such as Angel for the A. I also like the fact that PDF download which I can open on my tablet or phone and complete searches to find all references of a word such as CROSS. Since I answer phones at a Christian ministry, I do not have time to thumb through the 300 pages of my handbook. This Thursday I was all in a dither trying to find relevant verses on loneliness and fear. Within seconds had 12 verses regarding fear and loneliness. Many senior citizens, that I talk to on the prayer line, do not have computers or smartphones. It is comforting to those unfamiliar with the Bible to have a few verses to read when they are alone. This is a great teacher reference and pastors could certainly find it useful. Henderickson/Rose provided this PDF for my unbiased review.
