The Essential IVP Reference Collection, version 3.0 on CD-ROM

The best scholarship. The most up-to-date information.

Useful. Fascinating. Easy. Now.

Other CD-ROM reference libraries today make you pay for dozens of out-of-date, public-domain books that do not give you the best and most recent scholarship--the timely and reliable information you want and need. By contrast, The Essential IVP Reference Collection includes only work from the best of today's biblical and theological scholars.

Version 3.0 offers the same great content as 2.0 but with a new Libronix platform. You'll have instant access to InterVarsity Press's award-winning New Testament dictionary series (Dictionary of Jesus and the Gospels, Dictionary of Paul and His Letters, Dictionary of the Later New Testament & Its Developments and Dictionary of New Testament Background), the immensely popular Bible background commentaries (The IVP Bible Background Commentary: Old Testament and The IVP Bible Background Commentary: New Testament), and the New Bible Dictionary and New Bible Commentary, which have set the standard for Bible reference books for over a generation.

And that's just the beginning! Does a particular verse trouble you? Hard Sayings of the Bible gives in-depth explanations of over 500 of the most difficult passages in the Old and New Testaments. Are you interested in the meaning of recurring images in Scripture? The Dictionary of Biblical Imagery will aid your exploration of the themes, metaphors, imagery and patterns of Scripture. New Bible Atlas, New Dictionary of Biblical Theology and New Dictionary of Theology will help round out your study of the places, peoples, interpretations and implications of biblical teaching. Finally, four convenient "pocket" dictionaries offer a quick-reference resource covering biblical studies, the study of New Testament Greek, theological terms, and apologetics and the philosophy of religion.
