The Great Adventure: Bible Indexing Tabs (2017)

I bought these to protect the edges of the pages of my Great Adventure Bible from becoming dirty and discoloured from use, and for easy reference to the colour coded system. The tabs were fairly easy to install once I understood the method, they're durable and the colours match well. I've had my copy since its first printing and opening to the books using the tabs has certainly helped to maintain the good condition of the bible. I know this may not bother other folks, but it has been a plus in my books. No complaints.

Amazing product with great quality. They stick and look very good. Also includes all 73 books of the Bible and extra tabs for old/New Testament and other such things. Also includes and mesure tool to help you place. 5/5

Great accessory to add to my Bible.

You want to have the time to place these tabs on your Bible. Read the instructions. The reviews contain some good tips, which helped me with my tabs. If you are using The Great Adventure Bible, you already have a built-in guide to place your tabs. I took my sheet of tabs, folded them on the creases, and removed them from the backing, placing them down. Once you fold the tab and the label touch, they are set. If you try to reset, you can get the clear part of the tab off the page, but the label itself will tear. Patience is a virtue and your patience may be tested, but for me, well worth it. :) Peace and all good!

Well, that's a bit high of praise, but these sure are practical. As with any serious study of Sacred Scripture you're going to do a fair amount of flipping around from the Old Testament to the New Testament, cross-referencing, comparing typology, prophecies, etc.. These tabs not only help you navigate faster, but they are color coded to coincide with The Bible Timeline Chart by Jeff Cavins. Colorful and very easy to apply too (if you're patient and follow the directions) I'm a former evangelical protestant and these are the best tabs I've come across so far in over 40 years of reading the Bible. To my protestant brothers and sister: Don't let the word Catholic keep you from purchasing these tabs along with the Timeline Chart. The tab pack contains tabs for the whole canon of the Bible, but simply discard those tabs, or better yet, ask yourself why your Bible is smaller and hang on to them.

I ordered these to install on the The Large Print Great Adventure Bible from the same company, Ascension. See my review elsewhere on the bible. The tabs arrived on time and in good condition. They will do what they are intended to do and are made of high-quality material. The printing and coloration are really good. With that let me make a few comments. First, there are a lot of tabs in this packet. It is a lot of work putting these on. Be prepared to work over several days. I did them all over a four-day period. The steadiness of my hands could not do it all in one extended session. See the first picture above. For me, I prefer the cut-out finger tabs like the second bible shown in my pictures, and I don't have to do the work! With that said, these tabs were the best option for this bible and they work just fine. Second, do you need them? That is a subjective determination. It is nice being able to quickly find and flip to a book in the bible. But then you must ask yourself, how quickly do you need to find a book that you can't just flip through the bible to find it? Readings are always pre-published so you can use the bible ribbons to mark them. Bible studies - you can mark them ahead of time with the ribbons as well. Random bible flipping, is that really a time sensitive endeavor? You will have to make the determination if you need them yourself. Third, There are a lot of tabs when all are installed. They tend to cover each other making it a little more difficult to read and find the correct tab. But this is not a major issue, you can find them, just a bit difficult. There is no solution to this issue, it is just the way it is. No fault of the tabs, just the way the bible is structured. Installation There are several videos on YouTube about how to install these. I won't go into much detail but just offer a few comments based on my experience with installing them. 1) These tabs are very sticky and they will stick to most anything, and then not come off easily. Handle them with care and make sure you do not touch anything you don't want them to stick to, especially other bible pages! They will grab the thin paper in the bible and you will tear your bible pages trying to get the tab off. This isn't a big issue, just be careful and deliberate. If you don't have a steady hand, you may want to ask someone else to put them on for you. 2) You need something to put between the pages as you try to apply these tabs. I found that a sheet of the non-stick aluminum foil works pretty well. The tabs will stick to it a little bit but will easily come off. 3) The tabs come with a template to lay over the page to determine where the tabs should be installed. I found this to be non-essential and cumbersome. You need both hands to install the tabs so trying to hold the template in place is just more work. The pages have colored rectangles printed on them so I just use these rectangles to determine placement. 4) The thin pages will move around and bow or blow up a little. If they inadvertently move up and hit the tab, it will stick! If the page twists or moves as you get ready to place the tab, you will install it crooked. Use one hand to hold the page down, and the other hand to apply the tab. So here is how I did it. Place the non-stick tin foil under the page you want to put the tab on. Make sure you only have one page selected or it will be a problem. Peal the tab off the paper and keep it flat, place it on the tip of your right hand (left if you are left-handed). Hold the page down with your left hand (right if you are left-handed) carefully move the tab towards the page square to the edge and with the free edge of the tab tilted very slight up. Position the tab evenly over the colored rectangle on the page and align it with the black line even and square with the edge of the page. Lower the tab down onto the page. It is stuck! Press it firmly into place. This is important. Lift the page up and begin folding the tab over by grasping it in the middle between your index finger and thumb and applying easy pressure. Always pinch in the middle of the tab. If you pinch the edges you will get an uneven application, creases and bubbles in the tab. Gentle pinch the tab together being careful to keep it perfectly aligned and then allow it to stick to the page. Again at this point you are only working in the very middle of the tab. Once it is stuck in the middle, apply pressure from the center out towards the edges until evenly applied. Be careful, you can do it! Depending on which bible you have, there will be extra tabs left over. These can simply be discarded. Overall, this product is of good quality and does what it is intended to do. I prefer other methods of indexing my bibles but that was not an option with my bible. I have not installed these on the smaller Discovery Bible so I cannot comment on the process there. I assume it is very similar. I recommend these tabs if you don't mind doing the work necessary to get them installed. God Bless!

I love these tabs and I've ordered them a couple of times now. They are color-coded, which may not look as elegant as the silver or gold colored tabs, but it makes it easier to quickly identify the books you are looking for. Included are tabs for every book of the Old and New Testament as well as the Apocryphal books. In addition to those books it includes the following: Concordance Tables Charts Helps Teachings of Jesus Bible dict. Topical index Maps Bible, General General Index The tabs took quite a while to put on my new bible (like 2 hours!) but that actually helped me familiarize myself with the names of the books and their typical locations. Like some of the other reviewers stated, it's easy to accidentally "lock" a few pages in one tab. Since most bibles have very thin and delicate pages, you've got to be very careful when peeling off an incorrectly but freshly placed tab, or you will risk ripping the page. **Honestly though, after 50+ tabs you will probably have had several imperfectly positioned ones and you'll just to need to realize that the point of the tabs isn't to have a "perfect" looking bible, but to make it easier for you to read God's word!

As a member of several Bible groups, I am constantly searching for a verse to share. When attempting to use a specific Biblical verse, I am often inconvenienced by my inability to turn quickly to a book of the Bible. As a graduate of a Biblical school, fumbling around in the Scriptures is humbling. I have previously used Bible indexing tabs. I found them difficult to mount on my Bible and an unclear guide after they were applied. So, I have been searching for better Bible indexing tabs. The "Great Adventure Bible Indexing Tabs by Ascension Press are a good solution to my problems. The tabs are color coded to match colors on a historical time line. The colors are vibrant and are easy to distinguish from one another. A special bonus is that these indexing tabs are easy to use. I have never been very coordinated in crafts, and now that my hands are full of arthritis, it is tough for me to use small objects such as indexing tabs. These tabs are so well made that even I can apply them to a Bible. The set contains directions and spacing aids that take the guesswork out of applying each tab (for example: "have I left enough space to allow the tab to be seen?") If I can do this, almost anyone can do this. I highly recommend these Bible indexing tabs. I plan to order some for my friends.

Buy! Buy! Buy from MurrayMediaUK! A MUST-HAVE for any Catholic Bible. Fantastic and perfect! Although some of the Deuterocanonical Books in my Bible (Good News Catholic Bible) are not included in these tabs, and some of the tabs don't really match my Bible pages (e.g. the maps are on several pages of my Bible but the pack comes with only one tab for maps). These are the only 2 things I would gently comment on, but they still don't take away from the brilliant and beautiful tabs which make this great Book of Life even more special! A MUST-HAVE for anyone who's thinking of doing or who has completed Jeff Cavins' (& Ascension Press) life-changing course, 'Unlocking the Mystery of the Bible', and anyone who's embarking on any aspect of the Great Adventure series. They are very easy to apply, and quite therapeutic too, I must say. The shipping timelines were generously overstated - I'm very happy to say MurrayMediaUK delivered long before the due date (10 days) and I'm thrilled! I'll definitely be ordering more for my parish family. Thank you and I hope you enjoy them as much as I am!

Sehr schönes Register, gut Qualität, mit Anleitung, man muss natürlich aufpassen, Bibeln habe ja immer dünne Seiten, braucht schon eine ruhige Hand und definitv keinen Kaffee dabei trinken, das Resultat ist jedoch einfach nur super, klar zu empfehlen!

Best bible tab you can buy and stick on your catholic bible (includes 7 books of Deutero-canon) The colour coding goes perfectly well with the Bible Timeline course taught by Jeff Cavins. The amazing part is that the prophet books are also coloured according to the mnemonic colour so that you can immediately tell which period did the book of prophet Haggai appeared -written.

Great identification tabs ,

A must for finding passages quickly
