This must-have Bible Dictionary has become one of the best-selling Bible reference tools since its original publication in 1991. Now this revised and expanded edition called the Holman Illustrated Bible Dictionary offers even greater value to Bible students and teachers.

The Holman Illustrated Bible Dictionary is designed both for those who need information quickly and those who want in depth treatments of hundreds of topics. Each entry begins with a brief definition of the word followed by more detailed information.

Most Bible Dictionaries are just detailed definitions of subjects, however Holman Illustrated Bible Dictionary is much more! Here are some of the features:

Exhaustive definitions of all the people, places, things and events, dealing with every subject in the Bible
Unique scale drawings and reconstructions of Biblical place and objects based on careful archeological research
Major articles on theological topics, collective articles on plants, animals, occupations, etc.
Up-to-date archaeological information from excavations in Israel
Timeline that compares biblical history to world history
Many articles based on the original languages, but written in a user-friendly style. Technical language and abbreviations are avoided
Extensive cross-referencing of related articles
