This beautiful book will be a delight and an inspiration to boys and girls of all ages.
The easy-to-read text describes the people, main events, places, and leading ideas of the Bible and is profusely illustrated with four-colour and black-and- white illustrations. In more than 840 entries, the author defines and explains Bible terms, and he does it in a narrative style which will immediately capture the young reader’s interest. The entire volume is sprinkled with vignettes which suggest or retell actual Bible stories. Bible references relating to the subjects discussed are given at the end of each description to encourage the reader to turn to the Scripture. The writer’s own viewpoint is one of reverent Biblical scholarship set forth without denominational bias. The accuracy and educational value of Bible Encyclopedia for Children has been ensured by a panel of Biblical scholars, theologians, and Christian educators of various denominations in Great Britain and the United States. Not only have they verified the facts and interpretations, but they have checked the suitability of the language and concepts for children. The elaborate and colourful illustrations have been created and verified with the same devoted care. Denis Wrigley, the designer and illustrator, has caught the spirit of the Bible and the intention of the Encyclopedia in his illustrations which range from full- colour double-page pictures to small black-and- white sketches. They present illustrations of Bible stories, pictorial maps, and pictures of the common tilings of daily life in Bible times. Their authenticity has been checked by the noted Biblical archaeologist, G. Lankester Harding. |
