Another Study Resource

Bible students and teachers should check out the “Christian Classics Ethereal Library.”

This site--sponsored by Calvin College, in Grand Rapids, Michigan--contains a tremendous amount of material in the public domain and is well organized. Here you can find the Bible in several translations, as well as Bible dictionaries and encyclopedias.  There are also countless items like Augustine’s “Confessions” and the commentaries of John Calvin.  (You don’t have to be a Calvinist to learn from his truly rich expositions).

The site also features the “Executable Outlines” section, where teachers can find detailed study guides covering various topics and books of the Bible. The author of these outlines is one Mark A. Copeland, who seems to have a connection to one of the two conservative branches of the American Restoration (a.k.a. Stone-Campbell) Movement.

The homepage can be found at the following address:  http://www.ccel.org/
