Reviews
General editor Achtemeier commissioned more than 3500 original articles from 179 Christian and Jewish scholars (all members of the Society of Biblical Literature, and hailing from seven countries) for this nonsectarian reference source which can be used with any Bible translation. Written by experts in the fields covered, the alphabetically arranged entries deal with all important persons and places in the Bible; theological terms; all books of the Bible, including the Apocrypha; all major archaeological sites; and difficult word usages. In addition, there are major, definitive articles on Moses, Jesus, Paul, the history of biblical translations, etc., and general articles on non-Judeo-Christian cultures and other relevant topics (such as economics of biblical times). Clearly and copiously illustrated with color and black-and-white photographs, maps, and drawings, this splendid volume presents a balanced summary of current biblical scholarship accessible to the general reader, and belongs in every reference collection. Anneliese Schwarzer, formerly with "Library Journal"
