Thank you for purchasing the HarperCollins Christian Publishing eBook version of The NIV Application Commentary.
What is the difference between an eBook and a print book?
eBook versions contain all of the content and supplementary materials found in the original print versions and are optimized for navigation in the various apps and devices used for display. eReaders recognize text as one fluid string and are formatted in a single column. eReaders currently do not support the more complex layout seen in print version books. Therefore, some content may not appear in the same place as in the original print version, but it is structured consistently and uses hyperlinks to navigate between related content.
How do I use the eBook Table of Contents?
*Important Note: Be sure to consult your device manufacturer’s User’s Guide for device-specific navigation instructions.*
The Table of Contents is the primary navigation anchor to quickly access various parts of the eBook. It is generally formatted in the same order as the original print version and is hyperlinked as follows:
Selecting an entry in the Table of Contents takes you to that location in the eBook. Selecting the title of that specific entry or using your device’s “Back” button or function takes you back to the main Table of Contents.
