Description

The fourth volume of the International Standard Bible Encyclopedia appeared in 1915, bringing Orr's great project near the alphabet's end. Five volumes were planned, and the fourth shows no slackening of the plan. The vast survey of Bible lands and teachings draws toward its close.

Entries continue through the later letters, with the same mix of archaeology, history, languages, and doctrine that marks the set. Orr's team kept its thorough standard to the last article, answering the questions students actually brought to the text. The encyclopedia became the reference shelf's cornerstone for a generation of pastors and teachers. Volume 4 leaves the work all but complete, awaiting only the final volume and its indexes. It remains a fair sample of the set's quality at full stretch.
