- Red, underlined lessons usually have more in-depth or important treatment of the subject or have especially helpful clarifications. Lesson numbers in black usually have shorter, often just very brief mentions of the subject.

- An asterisk (*) indicates the latest revised, expanded or corrected reference to a subject.

- Subjects that begin with numbers (10 commandments, 70 weeks of Daniel) are in the Numerical Index that precedes the Alphabetical Index.

- It may be helpful to listen to many or all lessons cited for a subject. Some lessons contain clarifications or revisions that other lessons omit.

- This is far from being a completely comprehensive index. Many brief references are omitted intentionally. It is likely that some references that should be included have been overlooked.

- When looking for the most recent reference to a subject, be aware that the date of a series doesn't always indicate the date of a lesson, especially in long series. For example, some lessons in a series that began in 2003 (e.g., the 2003 Genesis series) are newer than some lessons in a series that began later (e.g., the 2004 Revelation series). Dates of individual lessons of most series can be found at http://deanbible.org

- This index may have errors. It has not been double-checked by Dr. Dean, Dean Bible Ministries or West Houston Bible Church. If you find an error or a significant omission, please send an email to: nightsky7c@yahoo.com
