Description
James Hastings, a Scottish minister and editor, published Volume One of his Dictionary of the Bible in 1898. It covers entries from A to Feasts. Hastings enlisted the leading biblical scholars of Britain, Germany, and America.
Articles treat the language, lands, peoples, and ideas of the Bible with the best learning of the day. Maps, plans, and a synopsis of feasts and fasts support the text. Hastings aimed at a dictionary both scholarly and usable by ministers and teachers. The set became the great turn-of-the-century Bible dictionary in English, found in studies and vestries everywhere.
