| Abstract | "The compiler has combed the annals of Christian esoterica. The resulting dictionary (cross-referenced and with many quotations) serves as an unruly companion to the typical Bible dictionary. Nearly 1500 entries range from Aaron's beard (a popular name for Saint John's wort) to zounds (an antiquated Christian swear word)"--Provided by publisher. |
