This color-coded study Bible makes reading more visual and encourages a deeper understanding of God’s Word for young and old alike! The idea is simple and intuitive: every verse in the Bible falls under one of 12 themes, each of which are assigned a different color. As you read, you will encounter a rainbow of colors on each page and be able to quickly see what different passages are referring to or discussing. This provides a basis for understanding the immediate context as well as offering a birds-eye view. In some instances, whole paragraphs fall under the same color, while in other places, single verses are highlighted for emphasis. The direct words of God are further distinguished by underlining.
In the front of the Bible, a thorough introduction to the color system is provided, with all 12 color-coded themes shown across several charts that illustrate example topics and verses. These 12 themes are God, salvation, sin, evil, love, family, prophecy, history, discipleship, commandments, faith, and outreach.
Beyond just color-coding, understanding is encouraged with introductions to each book that include information such as author, date written, where it was written, who it was written to, background info, key words, themes, and even an outline of the book. Maps and key information are interspersed throughout. Includes plenty of cross-references and footnotes, and a handy color code with the themes and colors runs along the bottom of the pages for easy reference.
With so many study resources included and the text presented in such a visual way, kids and adults alike will be well-equipped in their study and devotions.
