Biblical and Theological Dictionaries
Why use Bible Dictionaries?
Biblical and Theological Dictionaries define and explain words, events, people, and themes, sometimes at considerable length.
This preliminary understanding will be helpful when you move on to research in commentaries, journal articles, and books related to your passage.
We recommend the following sources to begin your research. However, we have several more Biblical and Theological Dictionaries in our collection that you can find using our library catalog!
