OUR SPECIAL “I.B.S.A.” BIBLE

The “I.B.S.A.” Bible is becoming more and more indispensable to all readers as they learn how to use it. The translation, of course, is not at all different from that of other Bibles of the Common Version. We specially recommend it for its smallness of size, lightness of weight and good-sized print, and above all for the helps to Bible students and teachers bound with it; printed on India paper; excellent press work. Its special feature, distinguishing this Bible from all others, is

BIBLE TEACHERS’ MANUAL

Biblical Comments from Genesis to Revelation, with references to the STUDIES IN THE SCRIPTURES and others of our publications. It represents four hundred and eighty-one pages of matter.

INSTRUCTORS’ GUIDE TEXTS

This is a topical arrangement of Bible subjects. It is in condensed form, very convenient, and consists of eighteen pages solid matter.

BEREAN TOPICAL INDEX

This, alphabetically arranged, presents a large variety of subjects showing references to the STUDIES IN THE SCRIPTURES and others of our publications treating the same. This feature covers twenty-eight pages.

DIFFICULT TEXTS EXPLAINED—SPURIOUS PASSAGES NOTED

In this, specially difficult texts are brought to the attention and references given showing where they are treated in our publications. Following this is a full list of various interpolations and spurious passages of the Scriptures not in the original MSS., as proven by the oldest Greek MSS.—fifteen pages.

All of our “I.B.S.A.” Bibles contain the above, and some of them, the numbers of which end with a nine, contain additionally Bagster’s Bible Study Helps, including an alphabetical index of proper names and Bagster’s Bible Concordance and Maps—a total of one hundred and eighty-six pages. The price is the same whether the order be for one copy or for more. To save danger of misunderstanding we below quote the prices, including postage.
