This review is from: Symbols of the Christian Faith (Paperback)
This book is excellent in explaining Christian Symbols and provides Scripture support for the information. It has very good, crisp, detailed drawings of each symbol.

This review is from: Symbols of the Christian Faith (Paperback)
This book covers many of the major Christian symbols and has a short discription of each one that is typically concise and sometimes only a few sentences long. The pictures of each symbol are all black and white but usually pretty large with only one example of each. I think this book is worth it for the number of symbols it covers. It also has decent references if you are interested in more information.

4.0 out of 5 stars Symbols of the Christian Faith, January 11, 2009
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Symbols of the Christian Faith (Paperback)
This book, although smaller than I expected, is PACKED, with designs and concise explanations of common and uncommon Christian symbols. The author has even included many not well known symbols, symbols unknown except to antiquity and their histories. My intent is to incorporate some of these symbols in jewelry and art of my original design. With th information and articles provided in this book, that will be easy. Well worth the money. DEFINITELY recommend this book.
