This book was released on 2016-10-14 with total page 1088 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Illustrated Bible Dictionary Modern scholarship, research, and discovery have thrown a ood of new light upon the Bible during recent years; especially in regard to textual criticism, comparative religion, the knowledge of Oriental languages and dialects, the deciphering of inscriptions, archaeology, geography, etc. It has been felt, therefore, that the time was ripe for putting such results before the general public in a compact and accessible form, such as would be best found in a Bible Dictionary in one volume and a very large number of bishops, scholars, teachers, archaeologists, linguists, and divines were consulted, with the result that their replies showed a general consensus Of Opinion as to the need Of such an enterprise, and to them the Editor is indebted for their warm approval and encouragement and for much valuable advice. The spirit in which the endeavour has been made to produce a volume worthy of such commendations of the scheme is best expressed by a quotation from our prospectus: The defence of Holy Scripture is a sacred duty of the Church of God and the present work has been carried out in the faith that it will be a contribution to a deeper knowledge of, and therefore greater reverence for, the word of God and it is the earnest desire Of the Editor and contributors that this aspiration may be realized. While this Dictionary is frankly conservative in the right sense of that much misunderstood term, none Of the additions of value made to our knowledge by criticism, which are within the scope of a volume of this size, have been neglected. On this point the definition of the word conservative, given in our instructions to writers, may help to avoid misinterpretation of our purpose: By 'conservative is meant that atti tude of mind which, while welcoming all ascertained results of investigation, declines to accept any mere conjectures or theories as final conclusions, and believes that the Old Testament will emerge with reinforced authority from the ordeal of criticism as the New Testament did in the last genera tion. In short, the aim oi the writers has been, to quote our prospectus again, to combine modern research with ancient faith. The need of this was excellently expressed, many years ago, by Bishop Lightfoot, and his words remain equally true to-day In criticism as in politics, the voice of the innovators, even though they may not be numerous, cries aloud, and thus gives the impression of numbers; while the conservative Opinion of the majority is unheard and unnoticed.

They have drawn, wherever possible, on their own personal acquaintance with the Lands of the Bible, the Peoples, their Manners and Customs, and the Conditions of their Life. Many articles of special importance have been entrusted to scholars whose distinction in their own subjects commands universal respect. The writers are responsible for the views which they express. The Right Reverend the Lord Bishop of Truro had undertaken to write the article on the English Bible. Unfortunately he was prevented by illness from doing this; and at very short notice Mr. Maclean \vatt of Alloa kindly wrote the article. The dictionary deals with Biblical Antiquities, Biography, History, Literature, Manners and Customs, Natural History, Geography, and Topography. Repetition has been avoided by a careful arrangement of cross-references. Space has also been saved by a system of easily understood contractions, thus making possible a fuller treatment of the more important subjects.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Dictionary of the Bible, Vol. 1: Dealing With Its Language, Literature, and Contents, Including the Biblical Theology; A-Feasts As to accessibility. While all the articles have been written expressly for this work, so they have been arranged under the headings one would most naturally turn to. In a very few cases it has been found necessary to group allied subjects together. But even then, the careful system of black-lettering and cross-reference adopted, should enable the reader to find the subject wanted without delay. And so important has it seemed to the Editor that each subject should be found under its own natural title, that he has allowed a little repetition here and there (though not in identical terms) rather than distress the reader by sending him from one article to another in search of the information he desires. The Preper Names will be found under the spelling adopted in the Revised Version, and in a few very familiar instances the spelling of the Authorized Version is also given, with a cross-reference to the other. On the Proper Names generally, and particularly on the very difficult and unsettled questions of their derivation, reference may be made to the article names (proper), which will be found in the third volume. The Hebrew, and (where it seemed to be of consequence for the identification of the name) the Greek of the Septuagint, have been given for all proper and many common names. It was found impracticable to record all the variety of spelling discovered in different manuscripts of the Septuagint; and it was considered unnecessary, in view of the great Edition now in preparation in Cambridge, and the Concordance of Proper Names about to be published at the Clarendon Press. The Abbreviations, considering the size and scope of the work, will be seen to be few and easily mastered. A list of them, together with a simple and uniform scheme of transliterating Hebrew and Arabic words, will be found on the following pages. The Maps have been specially prepared for this work by Mr. J. G. Bartholomew. The Illustrations (the drawings for which have been chiefly made in Syria by the Rev. G. M. Mackie, m.a) are confined to subjects which cannot be easily understood without their aid. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
