Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Dictionary of the Holy Bible: For General Use in the Study of the Scriptures; With Engravings, Maps, and Tables One of the most cheering tokens of the progress of the gospel in our country and the world is the growing interest in the study of God´s Word, which, as experience continually demonstrates more clearly, is the fountain of all the truth and the channel of the only spiritual power that can regenerate man and reform the world. To promote and aid in its study the Tract Society has published many most valuable Bible Helps: among them Dr. Barrows´ "Companion to the Bible," and his "Sacred Geography and Antiquities;" "The Bible Text-Book," the "Bible Atlas," two Concordances, Locke´s "Commonplace-book of the Bible," the "Family Bible with Notes," "Hanna´s "Life of Christ," and "The Dictionary of the Holy Bible." Of this latter volume over two hundred thousand copies have been circulated, and it has been the basis of translations into several foreign languages. But since its first publication great progress has been made in Biblical researches: the lands of the Bible have been more thoroughly explored - by the "Palestine Exploration" Companies, the "British Ordnance Survey," and recent travellers; the admirable Bible Dictionary of Dr. William Smith, with those of Fairbairn, Fausset, and others, have made a new era in Bible study; and the Revised Version of Scripture has appeared. All these recent works have been used in preparing this revised Bible Dictionary, with the purpose to present clearly and briefly the best attainable results of Biblical research, new and old - gathering from many large and costly works all the important information which the pastor, the Sunday-school teacher, or any earnest student of the Bible would require. A great proportion of the articles have been rewritten, many new illustrations have been added, and improved maps; and in this revised and enlarged form the Dictionary is almost a new work. It is sent forth with the earnest recommendation that the student will use it only as an aid in the study of the Bible itself, turning to all the passages referred to, and inspecting them, with the purpose above all so to search the Scriptures as to find Him of whom chiefly they testify, and who alone is "the Way, the Truth, and the Life."
