A Dictionary of the Proper Names of the Old and New Testament Scriptures by J B Jackson

2016 Reprint of 1909 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. There are about 3500 words in the Bible that most of us can't understand because their meaning is not translated into English. These are biblical names. Yet 2 Timothy 3:16 says that all Scripture or every Scripture is given by inspiration and is profitable. Therefore, we can gain profitable spiritual truth and instruction from these names, although the reason for some names is not immediately obvious. Some are much clearer, such as Timothy, meaning honoring God. He certainly honored God from his youth, up. This scholarly dictionary by James Beaumont Jackson was first published in 1909 after eleven years of hard work.-Introduction. From Aaron to Zuriel, this simple yet valuable resource will inform the study of the bible.

Landscape magazine was founded by John Brinckerhoff Jackson, who has taught American landscape history at Harvard University and the University of California, Berkeley. Finding the Vernacular Landscape, his most recent work, was praised as incisive and overpoweringly influential (Thomas Hine, Philadelphia Inquirer).
