A classic reference, this comprehensive Bible dictionary provides a wealth of basic background information in a very affordable format. Nelson's edition is revised and edited by F. N. and M. A. Peloubet to be even more applicable to today's Bible student. It includes more than 400 illustrations and special articles in addition to page after page of basic information.
I received this book as a gift in 1983 from some dear friends. Since then I have used it a billion times or more; almost on a weekly basis. Wonderful resource. I highly recommend it to any student of the Bible.
This has been a favorite reference for years - when I want to know more about a place or word in the Bible. Having grown fond of Smith's Bible Dictionary, I now continue to use an electronic version that is available in the Pocket Sword app.
