This fifth volume of the monumental International Standard Bible Encyclopaedia (Encyclopedia) is a testament to the dedication and scholarship of its editor, James Orr, and the esteemed contributors who assembled this comprehensive reference work in the early 20th century. Published by the venerable Eerdmans Publishing Company, known for its commitment to religious and theological works, this volume covers topics from “Socket” to “Zuzim,” including an extensive index and atlas section.
Orr’s encyclopaedia stands as a landmark achievement, providing a wealth of information on biblical subjects, historical context, and theological interpretations. This volume would be a prized addition to any collection focused on biblical studies, religious history, or the intellectual and cultural milieu of the early 20th century. Despite the absence of a dust jacket, the well-preserved hardcover and clean pages of this 1939 edition offer a glimpse into a era when such comprehensive reference works were painstakingly compiled by teams of dedicated scholars.
