Orville J. Nave – (1841-1917), Biblical scholar
Orville James Nave was an army chaplain who sought to produce an exhaustive classification of all the topics in the King James Version of the Bible. The first Nave’s Topical Bible was the result of fourteen years of study by Nave, with the assistance of his wife Anna. He referred to this work as “the result of fourteen years of delightful and untiring study of the Word of God.” Nave’s Topical Bible was originally published in the early 1900’s.Nave worked for the last twenty years of his life on various revisions of the work.
