These Dictionary topics are from M.G. Easton M.A., D.D., Illustrated Bible Dictionary, Third Edition, published by Thomas Nelson, 1897. The illustrated portion of the Dictionary has not yet been included on our website. |
Easton's Bible Dictionary generally refers to the Illustrated
Bible Dictionary, Third Edition, by Matthew George Easton M.A.,
D.D. (1823-1894), published three years after Easton's death in
1897 by Thomas Nelson. Because of its age, it is now a public
domain resource. Despite its name, many of the entries in
Easton's are encyclopedic in nature, though there are short,
dictionary-like entries. It contains nearly 4,000 entries.
Easton's Bible Dictionary contains an extensive set of entries used in the Bible, from a 19th century Christian viewpoint. Some of the entries in it are now out-of-date, many are only short dictionary
entries, but much remains that is useful source material.
1. Public domain comprises the body of knowledge and innovation (especially creative works such as writing, art, music, and inventions) in relation to which no person or other legal entity can establish or maintain proprietary interests within a particular legal jurisdiction.
