I remember how someone in Greece claimed that the Bible we used was not a "real" Bible because it didn't have any cross-references.

Roughly, cross-references would point from one scripture to other scriptures on the same general topic.

Since the Bible is made of many books, each typically recording the words of a different prophet or apostle, many teachings are repeated, and seeing how different prophets approached a given subjects or which emphasis they gave may be useful for study.
