"The fruit of many years of loving labor," Scottish Presbyterian minister Matthew George Easton's Illustrated Bible Dictionary has become a classic reference for those studying the Bible. Originally published in 1897, three years after Easton's death, it contains almost 4,000 entries and dozens of illustrations and maps. Readers will find definitions of terms ranging from Alpha to Zuzims. In between they'll find entries both obscure and common, such as Emims (a warlike tribe of giants), Hagar (Sarah's handmaid), immortality, meekness, Pentecost (the feast of harvest), seventy weeks (a prophetic period of time before the coming of the Messiah), sling (what David used to slay the giant), and Zorah (Samson's birthplace).

1.0 out of 5 stars
Not worth the money!,
By Jennifer Hall "Jennifer" (Kentucky) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Illustrated Bible Dictionary (Hardcover)
This is one of Amazon's higher priced bible dictionaries, but it is not worth the money. The pages look like photo copies and are not even sized to fit the page. The print is very small and hard to read and the pictures are black and white. Many of the pictures are so blurry you can't even tell what they are. I would not recommend that anyone spend their money to purchase this item.
