Synopsis
Scripture Acrostics by A. H presents a nineteenth-century collection of devotional word puzzles based on biblical references. Originally published in 1867 in London, it was edited by Thomas Bosworth. The book compiles numerous acrostics—lists of clues such as 'Two cities,' 'Two mountains,' and 'A woman raised to life'—each pointing to biblical persons, places, events, and themes. Readers are invited to solve each prompt, matching items to Scripture passages from Old and New Testaments. The format blends study aid with wordplay, serving both educational and devotional aims. With hundreds of items arranged under a wide array of biblical topics, the work reflects 19th-century approaches to religious education, encouraging memorization, overview of biblical narratives, and engagement with the text through linguistic puzzles. This volume stands as a curious specimen of Victorian sacred literature, illustrating how classical scripture study was made accessible through acrostic puzzles.
