Description
The fourth volume of the Encyclopaedia Biblica appeared in 1903, completing the set with Q to Z. Cheyne and Black closed their great critical dictionary four years after it began. It had drawn praise, outrage, and heavy use in equal measure.
Final articles cover the Resurrection debates, sacrifice, the Temple, and the writings of the New Testament. Indexes and additions tie the four volumes together. The encyclopaedia's method, treating the Bible as ancient literature to be tested, won the future of scholarship. Read today, it shows the moment when modern Bible study came of age in English.
