description: The Bible is the greatest of all books; to study it is the noblest of all pursuits; to understand it, the highest of all goals. The “Ryrie Study Bible” is especially designed to help you achieve that goal. Every time you read this Bible, whether carefully or casually, be sure to look at the notes at the bottom of the page. These are designed to illuminate and help you understand the verses you are reading. The notes provide a variety of some furnish historical or archaeological background; others translate or interpret the text more clearly; some define words and doctrines; and many refer you to other passages which relate to the same subject. When you wish to study a book of the Bible more systematically, you will want to read the Introduction to that book, which will give you information about the author, background, and contents. A unique feature of this Bible is the outline of each book printed at the end of each Introduction and also interspersed throughout the text. In this way you can readily see as you are reading through a book exactly where you are in the development of the ideas of that book by simply referring to the complete outline in the Introduction. The Introductions will help lead you into the messages of the books; the outlines will help you see the development of the messages; and the notes will help shed light on the messages. In addition, you will find at the back of the Bible an index of the principal subjects treated in the notes. There is also a Harmony of the Gospels for use when you want to locate the several accounts of an event in the Gospels.
