Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Biblical and Theological Dictionary The want of a Biblical and Theological Dictionary for the use of the families, Bible Classes, and Sabbath Schools, of our denomination, has long been felt by the Massachusetts Sabbath School Society. There are, it is true, several works of this kind which are entitled to high commendation for the ability with which they have been prepared; but none which, in all respects, answer our purpose, being constructed on a principle that excludes all the distinctive doctrines of Congregationalism, or containing articles opposed to the faith and order of our churches. An effort has, therefore, been made, in the present work, to meet this want. The basis of the following Dictionary is a small work by the Rev. Samuel Green, of London, the popularity of which, in England, may be inferred from the fact that it has there reached its Sixth Edition. Upon examining it, however, with a view to its republication here, it was found defective in several respects. Many important articles were omitted for the sake of brevity; and some topics were presented in a manner too general and noncommittal for those who resort to such a book for precise and definite instruction in matters of faith and ecclesiastical usage. A thorough revision and enlargement of it was, therefore, necessary in order to render it all that could be desired. Accordingly, a large number of articles have been added, and several, particularly that upon Baptism, have been modified to adapt them more perfectly to our institutions, and to the wants of our churches. Free use has been made of the latest and most reliable sources of information upon the subjects inserted, and great pains have been taken to render the whole work accurate and useful.
