Dictionary generally refers to the Illustrated Bible Dictionary, Third Edition, by Matthew
George Easton, M.A., D.D. (1823-1894), published (three years after Easton's death) in 1897
by Thomas Nelson. Easton's Bible Dictionary contains nearly 4,000 entries relating to the Bible,

Nave's Topical Reference
Originally produced by Orville J. Nave, A.M., D.D., LL.D. while serving as a Chaplin in
the United States Army, he referred to this work as "the result of fourteen years of
delightful and untiring study of the Word of God." Naves Topical Bible consists of 20,000+
topics and subtopics, and 100,000 references to the Scriptures. The topic headings are broad,
covering many religious concepts, geographical regions, and names of Biblical figures.
While theological concepts such as salvation and worship are included, a wide range of topics,
such as Biblical references to ropes, are also included. This reflects the author's intention,
as stated in the book's preface, to "...note and classify everything found in the Scriptures".
