A bit disappointing - By: S. K. WOOD, 24 Feb 2008
Although the price is low I did expect more from this Dictionary because it is an Oxford, it seems to be lacking in depth.
Comprehensive And Detailed Information - By: P. Donovan, 17 Oct 2005
This slim volume details not only characters from the Bible but a background to the theology & customs of the cultures of the Biblical lands. It provides clear Biblical references & is useful as it gives a clear background to the contexts in which the books of the Old & New Testaments were written.
Whilst not being comprehensive; it has no reference to 'The Nephilim', for example; it is a good value & highly useful resource for those who wish to explore the background to The Bible in any depth.
