I've been using this tool more and more. It's available for free as an additional download for e-sword, and I'm sure other bible software too.
The International Standard Bible Encyclopedia. Have you ever been reading the bible, and wondered "what does that word mean??" - well the ISBE is a very comprehensive bible dictionary. It gives some huge historical insights into practically any english word of the bible. It is especially useful for biblical characters and doctrines such as "election" and "adoption" I've found. The encyclopedia contains basically a collection of essays that aren't afraid to go back to the original greek in a way anyone can understand. If you're struggling a little to interpret the bible in context, I would highly recommend the ISBE. Also, if you don't have e-sword, go and get it today at http://www.e-sword.com
