Synopsis
Excerpt from A Dictionary of Important Names, Objects, and Terms, Found in the Holy Scriptures: Intended Principally for Youth
In most Dictionaries of the Bible, a large proportion of the matter consists of Scripture narrative, digested under heads or verbal defini tions. It is believed that the readingpf the Bible itself, is now so gen eral among the classes of persons for Whom this book is intended, as to make that plan undesirable in this instance. The object here is, in ref erence to Scripture names, to throw light on the sacred page, rather than to borrow it from thence. While therefore a great number of persons and places of which nothing is known, except from Scripture, is omitted, more Scripture illustration, adapted to youth, will, it is hbped, be found here than in any one of the larger works above named. In re gard to doctrinal terms, &c. The usual course was necessarily pursued. As some of the articles may seem hardly comprehensible to children, itis proper to remark that the work was intentionally graduated to the common level of Sabbath School teachers; who it is hoped will find it a convenient and useful manual. Only by bringing the book to this stand ard, could it be made itself a teacher, which was the great object. It was hoped by this planto make it useful to parents, also, in answering the numerous questions of intelligent children who read the Bible.
