This is a biblical reference dictionary (the genre of a lexicon or Bible dictionary, in the tradition of 19th-century Protestant biblical scholarship). It covers entries from "Ambush" through "Amminadib," providing definitions, etymologies, and cross-referenced scripture citations for each term. The entries blend literal definition with theological and historical context — for instance, explaining that "Amen" derives from a Hebrew root meaning "firm/faithful" and tracing its liturgical uses across both Testaments, or noting that "Amethyst" carries a Greek name rooted in beliefs about its supposed power against drunkenness. Several entries are purely genealogical, identifying minor Old Testament figures (Ammiel, Ammihud, Amminadab) by their family roles and the scriptural passages where they appear. The work is notable for its inclusion of rabbinical interpretations alongside Greek etymology, and for harmonizing parallel passages where the same person is named differently in different books (e.g., Ammiel/Eliam). Anyone researching biblical names, places, or liturgical terms for study or reference would find this useful; it is not argumentative or narrative, but strictly encyclopedic.
