Description
Volume 5 closed the International Standard Bible Encyclopedia in 1915, completing the set edited by James Orr. The project had set out to give Bible readers a full, conservative reference in English. By the final volume, thousands of signed articles by scholars covered the whole field of biblical study.
The closing volume carries the alphabet to its end and adds maps, lists, and indexes that tie the set together. Readers could trace a name, a place, or a doctrine across all five volumes. The encyclopedia became the standard companion to Bible study for pastors and students of its era. Though later works replaced it, its articles still reward readers who want the learning of 1915 in one place.
