Bible Commentaries
Hopefully everyone has someone they can consult for answers to tough questions. That is what a good commentary can do. Typically a Bible commentary is a systematic explanation and interpretation of Scripture. Often they give a chapter by chapter or verse by verse exposition and analyzation of individual books. There are several types of commentaries available: Expository, Exegetical, Devotional and Cultural.

Bible Concordances
Your first two questions might be, "What is a concordance?" and "Why do I need it?". A Bible concordance allow for a more in-depth study through the one or more verse references compiled for each word. Another function of a Bible concordance is to find a passage which you have read but cannot remember its reference.

Bible Dictionaries
Nearly everyone knows how to use a dictionary. However, a Bible dictionary can provide much more information than the standard Webster's Dictionary. To fully understand a word one should consult several dictionaries and try to understand names, subjects, places, backgrounds and themes surrounding the word.

Encyclopedias
Imagine an encyclopedia as a dictionary on steroids. Articles, written by respected Christian leaders of their time, help to bring to life Bible characters, events or places so the reader or student can gain a greater knowledge when reading and studying the Bible. Typically there are cross-references and links to other topics to help.
