Metaphysical Bible Dictionary by Charles Fillmore

American mystic Charles Fillmore founded a new variety of religious expression, the Unity movement, which combines traditional Christian elements with esoteric and metaphysical principles. In this core text of the movement, Fillmore presents user-friendly identifications and explanations of the Bible's many names, places, and events, including alphabetical listings of terms with pronunciation guide and derivation; multiple brief definitions; and expert, insightful analysis that provides scriptural context and metaphysical interpretations.
This unique guide is designed to open up new avenues of thought and to inspire a greater understanding and interest in Bible study. Readers will find it a steppingstone to a higher consciousness and the source of a wide array of solutions to life's problems.

Charles Sherlock Fillmore (August 22, 1854 - July 5, 1948) founded Unity in the late 1880s along with his wife Myrtle Page Fillmore, a church within the New Thought movement.

He became known as an American mystic for his contributions to spiritualist interpretations of biblical Scripture.

In 1889, Charles and Myrtle began publication of a new periodical, 'Modern Thought', notable among other things as the first publication to accept for publication the writings of the then 27-year-old New Thought pioneer William Walker Atkinson.

In 1890 they announced a prayer group that would later be called 'Silent Unity'.

In 1891, Fillmore's 'Unity' magazine was first published.

Although Charles had no intention of making Unity into a denomination, his students wanted a more organized group. He and his wife were among the first ordained Unity ministers in 1906. Charles and Myrtle Fillmore operated the Unity organizations from a campus near downtown Kansas City
