Excerpt from The Westminster Bible Dictionary The quickening of Bible study on the part of our Sabbath-school teachers and scholars at the present time, in connection with the remarkable additions recently made to our knowledge on topics related to Scripture interpretation, affords abundant reason for the issue of the Westminster Bible Dictionary. It will meet an existing call for a compact dictionary abreast of the times. The work was entrusted by the Board of Publication to the Rev. Thomas J. Shepherd, D. D., who has devoted to it much study and patient as well as skillful labor. Free use has been made by Dr. Shepherd of all accessible authorities, and especially of Dr. William Smith's invaluable, though not perfect, Dictionary of the Bible, as well as of the Bible Dictionary prepared by the Rev. W. M. Engles, D. D., and previously published by the Board. The thanks of the author and of the publishers are also given to Professor Isaac H. Hall, by whom the sheets of the Dictionary were read, and who, from his stores of Oriental, linguistic and archaeological information, has rendered the work an important service. Numerous engravings illustrating the articles are distributed through the volume, and valuable maps are given at its close.

The Westminster Dictionary of New Testament and Early Christian Literature and Rhetoric details the variety of literary and rhetorical forms found in the New Testament and in the literature of the early Christian church. This authoritative reference source is a treasury for understanding the methods employed by New Testament and early Christian writers. Aune's extensive study will be of immense value to scholars and all those interested in the ways literary and rhetorical forms were used and how they functioned in the early Christian world. This unique and encyclopedic study will serve generations of scholars and students by illuminating the ways words shaped the consciousness of those who encountered Christian teachings.
