A BIBLICAL AND THEOLOGICAL DICTIONARY - with an explanation of the
HISTORY, MANNERS, AND CUSTOMS OF THE JEWS AND NEIGHBOURING "
NATIONS with an ACCOUNT OF THE MOST REMARKABLE PLACES AND
PERSONS MENTIONED IN SACRED SCRIPTURE; an exposition of the
PRINCIPAL DOCTRINES OF CHRISTIANITY; and notices of Jewish and Christian
sects and heresies BY RICHARD WATSON

"A Biblical and Theological Dictionary" by Richard Watson is a reference
work written in the early 19th century. This dictionary aims to provide
an explanatory resource on the history, manners, and customs of the
Jews, as well as pertinent insights on remarkable places and individuals
mentioned in the Bible. Moreover, it encompasses an exposition of key
doctrines of Christianity and observations on various Jewish and Christian
sects and heresies. The opening of the dictionary includes a preface by the
author, in which Watson explains the structure and purpose of the work.

Watson elaborates that the dictionary compiles information from both ancient
and modern sources, refining and expanding upon various articles deemed
significant for understanding the Scriptures. He notes the importance of
selective inclusion, aiming to highlight entries that foster a deeper
comprehension of biblical texts. Watson also mentions the inclusion of an
alphabetical list of proper names from the Bible, detailing their meanings
and pronunciations, thus emphasizing the dictionary's utility for theological
students and scholars.

Sorry, but didn't realize that Josh Bond had already created and submitted a
version of this Dictionary. However, I created this with the intention of adding
more graphics that Watson does not include in this original version. I will add
to this as I find time. By adding to it, I don't intend to change any of the text.
My intention is to add Graphics, Maps, and Illustrations to greatly "enhance"
this dictionary, and make it more educational and useful than the original. The
original text will not be altered in any manner, except perhaps, the Font Size
and Font Type. Check for updates to this dictionary. Created 4/17/2025.
