The New Treasury of Scripture Knowledge: An easy-to-use one-volume library for Bible study and lesson preparation

by Jerome H. Smith (Editor), John F. MacArthur, Jr. (Foreword), Samuel Bagster

An exhaustive cross-referencing tool for interpreting Scripture with Scripture. The Bible is its own best commentary. To truly understand what the Bible teaches about a subject, we must consult all of what the Bible itself says about it. The New Treasury of Scripture Knowledge allows you to do just that, providing a selection of other verses which shed light upon, clarify, or explain the verse you are consulting. Unlike a concordance, which is an alphabetical index to the words of the Bible, the cross-references given in the New Treasury are not merely to the same word, but to the same or a related thought, theme, doctrine, subject, concept, or literary motif, even when expressed in entirely different words. Special Features: No combination of other Bible study tools quite duplicates the carefully-research and indexed content in The New Treasury of Scripture Knowledge . When used effectively, this invaluable resource will change your life.

This is a very useful tool for Bible study. It will give you thousands of cross references. The unique aspect of this work is that it breaks down verses for you with cross references going word by word through the Bible. So for example, John 3:16 the first word is God. The NTOSK begins with God and gives you "Jeremiah 31:3; Luke 2:14; Romans 5:8; 2 Corinthians 5:19-21; Ephesians 2:4-7; 2 Thessalonians 2:16; Titus 3:4-7; 1 John 3:1; 4:9, 10, 14, 19; Revelation 1:5." And that is all from the first word in the passage!

This book also has some word studies here and there. Overall, this is a very helpful book. I highly recommend it.
