This dictionary not only identifies terms and biblical figures but examines them from the perspective of reception historythe history of the Bibles effect on its readers. Biblical books, passages, and characters certainly played important roles in the history of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, but they also influenced other religious traditions, preachers, writers, poets, artists, and filmmakers.
