NIV Thematic Reference Bible

When I ditched my Pradis installation and purchased the Zondervan resources I had in Logos format, one item that was not available was the NIV Thematic Reference Bible. I really miss this but had decided not to re-install Pradis on my new computer some months back. Figured I would just live without it.

Well, over the weekend I just happened to stumble across the Zondervan Dictionary of Bible Themes (in all packages except Home). I have Platinum so there are a lot of resources I don't regularly use and many I've never even looked at. What caught my attention was the name of Alister McGrath. Turns out the Thematic Reference material is the same as the NIV Thematic Reference Bible. This might be a "Duh?" for many, but for me it was a "Wow" moment.

If supply and demand is any indicator, there is still demand for the NIV Thematic Reference Bible (now out of print) hardbacks are going for $150 to $190 new on Amazon.

Has the name of the Zondervan Dictionary of Bible Themes changed?

I've got Platinum, and used to find this resource by typing something like: title:zondervan (or similar) into the library pane and it would come up. Now, I can't find this resource in my library. Instead, I can find the following resource (which looks very similar to how I remembered the ZDBT):

Manser, Martin H. Dictionary of Bible Themes: The Accessible and Comprehensive Tool for Topical Studies. London: Martin Manser, 1999.

That's it. I suppose the name could have changed.

Has the name of the Zondervan Dictionary of Bible Themes changed?

Hi Paul,

It does appear this resource has been renamed. Interesting enough, the abbreviated name for this resource has remained the same "ZDBT." Go figure!? Thanks, John for this post. I can make use of this resource in my Bible background or as I call it "Biblical Context Collection."
