Description
Volume 3 of Orr's International Standard Bible Encyclopedia came out in 1915 with the rest of the set. The encyclopedia aimed to give Bible readers a complete reference that joined sound scholarship to traditional faith. By the third volume, the undertaking was in mid-course, the alphabet well advanced.
More of the ancient world is recovered here, and more of Scripture's background explained, article by signed article. The steady, learned progress of Orr's project shows on every page: maps, lists, and long treatments of major topics beside short notes on small names. The set became the standard Bible dictionary of its age for conservative readers. Volume 3 keeps the standard through the middle of the alphabet, and students of the period still consult it for the state of knowledge in 1915.
