The Impact Illustrated Bible Dictionary is a valuable tool for Bible students, preachers, pastors, and those involved in academic circles, who will appreciate its comprehensive, accurate, and clear content.
This work will allow the reader to better understand and interpret the Scriptures. Each article begins with a concise definition followed by an in-depth explanation. Between 2,000 and 3,500 years separate contemporary readers of the Bible from the original documents. To bridge this gap, it is necessary to have linguistic, literary, geographical, historical, and cultural information—information found in this illustrated dictionary.
This illustrated dictionary includes:
▶ Comprehensive definitions of people, places, objects, and events related to the Bible.
