The NIV Thompson Student Bible contains the same great notes Dr. Thompson scribbled in the margins of his Bible over a century ago. We've reformatted these notes so that it's easy to follow the linked verses on a topic. We've placed intriguing notes on archaeological discoveries near related Bible passages.

We've compiled Dr. Thompson's insights on a specific Bible book into one page Bible book introductions. In short, we took the key insights contained in the Thompson Chain-Reference Study Bible and presented them in a fresh and easy-to-use format.

Includes:
- 1,600 Life-Related Topics that guide you to linked verses on a topic - whether you want to explore hope or friendship with God, whether you want to meet King David or Abigail.
- 100 Visual Chains that present on one page eight or more verses on a specific topic - whether it is the Love of Christ or Life's Purpose.
- Archaeology Notes that describe archaeological discoveries related to Bible places.
- Portraits of Bible People that tell the story of a prominent Bible person and list the Bible passages that illustrate that person's life.
- Bible Introductions that focus on key insights of that book of the Bible.
