PREFACE
This work is a Dictionary of the names occurring in the Old Testament, arranged in the English Alphabetical order.

The mode of treatment in the elucidation of these Names is as follows:—after the English name, the Hebrew name is given, with its pronunciation. The Septuagint rendering, and that of the Vulgate Latin, follow. The Hebrew name is then etymologically discussed, and its relations and derivation shown.

The Three Thousand Six Hundred Names of which this Onomasticon consists, represent, through the same name being borne by various persons OT places, nearly Sixteen Thousand Five Hundred Individuals or Places; the whole of these have been carefully discriminated (it is believed for the first time so completely), and an identification of each is given, together with all the passages in which each occurs.
