Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Library of the University of California This work is based on "A Dictionary of the Holy Bible, for the use of Schools and Young Persons, by Edward Robinson, D. D.," issued in 1833, by Messrs. Crocker and Brewster, Boston. The use of the copy-right of that volume having been procured from the publishers, about two-thirds of it are embodied in these pages, constituting about one-third of the whole: but without any participation or responsibility on the part of Dr. Robinson. His own later biblical works, including his Researches in Palestine, afford invaluable aids to the Bible student, which have been freely used in the preparation of the present volume. Much aid has also been drawn from the Bible Dictionaries of Rev. John Brown of Haddington, and Professor Eadie of the United Presbyterian church, Scotland; Bost, of Switzerland; Kitto, and other sources; while the accuracy of all that has been inserted has been studiously tested, in every case as far as possible, by a comparison with the only infallible standard, the inspired word itself. The aim of this work and the principles on which it has been prepared, cannot be better expressed than in the language of Dr. Robinson in 1833, in his preface to the work on which it is based. "In the present work," he says, "the Editor has aimed to give only the results of his previous investigations; and to present them in such a form as may be attractive and useful to the very large class of young persona and others, who may be supposed to take an interest in this species of knowledge.
