A '''Scriptural cross-reference''' is a notation, often inline or in the page margin of a [[Bible]], that identifies commonalities between different parts of the Bible such as similar themes, words, events, or people. For example, many cross-references appear in some Bibles linking the accounts of [[Matthew]], [[Mark]] and [[Luke]] of certain events. Some readers prefer Bibles that do not have such cross-references since they are not present in the original texts and may distract from the text or subtly introduce the interpretations or biases of the editor.

For example, many cross-references appear in some Bibles linking the accounts of [[Matthew]], [[Mark]] and [[Luke]] of certain events. Another common example would be [[New Testament]] fulfilments of [[Old Testament]] prophecies or quotations by [[Jesus]] or New Testament writers of Old Testament Scripture. Some readers prefer Bibles that do not have such cross-references since they are not present in the original texts and may distract from the text or subtly introduce the interpretations or biases of the editor.
