Our library has a great resource that will definitely help you if you need sources or even ideas on where to start with your Analytical Paper called the “New Interpreter’s Bible.”  It’s the first resource I go to when I need info on a topic for a paper or research.  Plus, it includes a good bibliography of other sources to consult for a topic.

There’s also a new version of the “New Interpreter’s Dictionary of the Bible” currently being released as well.  However, they’ve only released volume 1 covering subjects that star with the letters A-C.  So, if you have a paper subject that starts with A, B, or C and are having trouble finding sources, let me know and I’ll let you borrow my personal copy of Volume 1.

The New Interp. Dictionary basically gives a brief overview of a topic and a good bibliography of articles and relevant books.  For example, the entry on “Ben-Hadad” (the king of Aram/Syria at the same time as Omri and Ahab of Israel) is about two pages of really concise and helpful info.

So, take a look at our library’s copy of the New Interpreter’s Bible in the reference section or let me know if you’d like to borrow my copy.
