The rich variety of subjects treated by the Bible continues to be a source of amazement and of satisfaction to each generation as it is introduced to the Scriptures. Indeed, so rich is this subject matter that, simply to codify and index biblical material, a whole shelf of reference works has come into existence. Yet it comes as a surprise to realize that until now, no single reference work has been available to provide an authoritative guide to the richest of all biblical matter -- its timeless stories and the characters who illuminate them. The SUBJECT GUIDE TO BIBLE STORIES has been compiled to answer this very need. Here at last is a handy, ready-reference tool for everyone who would like to "put his finger on" a Bible story in order to illustrate EXACTLY a basic spiritual truth -- whether for the edification of others or for personal inspiration. Clergymen, Sunday school instructors, students, librarians, speakers and writers, and informed laymen -- all will find this book a marvel of convenience and clarity, and all will find that it can save hours of time that might otherwise be spent in research. Throughout this invaluable reference work, the stress is on biblical NARRATIVES.

Subject Guide to Books In Print is the master subject reference to titles, authors, publishers, wholesalers and distributors in the US.
