THE NEW INTERPRETER'S BIBLE INDEX, Abingdon Press, 2004, Leander E. Keck (Yale University) Convener of the Editorial Board and Senior N.T. Editor. (BS491.2 B484 1994).

The March 9, 2003 Book Bite announced the addition of a valued donation to our library, THE NEW INTERPRETER'S BIBLE, a 12-volume commentary, written by scholars from major universities and seminaries of the world. It is located in the reference section between the West door and the middle door. Patrons appreciate this resource.

In the 2003 Book Bite plans were announced for an INDEX to the NIB. Published in May 2004, we acquisitioned the INDEX that shares the same goal with the commentary. It is "to bring the best in contemporary biblical scholarship into the service of the church to enhance teaching and study of the Scriptures." (P. vii)

The INDEX Contents lists: Ancient Literature, including non-canonical writings; Persons in the Bible; Persons outside the Bible; Places in the Bible; Places outside the Bible; Biblical Languages, Hebrew and Greek; and Maps. Take a look at this valuable addition to our library.
