"The fruit of many years of loving labor," Scottish Presbyterian minister Matthew George Easton's Illustrated Bible Dictionary has become a classic reference for those studying the Bible. Originally published in 1897, three years after Easton's death, it contains almost 4,000 entries and dozens of illustrations and maps. Readers will find definitions of terms ranging from Alpha to Zuzims. In between they'll find entries both obscure and common, such as Emims (a warlike tribe of giants), Hagar (Sarah's handmaid), immortality, meekness, Pentecost (the feast of harvest), seventy weeks (a prophetic period of time before the coming of the Messiah), sling (what David used to slay the giant), and Zorah (Samson's birthplace).

The author praises Gratian’s zeal for instruction in the Faith, and speaks lowly of his own merits. Taught of God Himself, the Emperor stands in no need of human instruction; yet this his devoutness prepares the way to victory. The task appointed to the author is difficult: in the accomplishment whereof he will be guided not so much by reason and argument as by authority, especially that of the Nicene Council.

The Gospel of John is in a special way the Gospel of love and intimacy. It is the Gospel of "belovedness," in which we are granted an insight into the immense love that God the Father has for his beloved Son, and for each one of us. The Son himself tells us at the Last Supper: "With the very love with which the Father has loved me, so have I loved you." And he also soon adds: "The Father himself loves you." During this supper, one of the disciples, the one "whom Jesus loved," leans against the breast of Christ, reposing against his very bosom. It is this disciple who, from the heart of his encounter with the intimate love of Christ, writes the flaming and passionate words of this Gospel, inviting us to share, each of us uniquely, in his own experience of God's inestimable love. In these reflections, the Prologue to the Gospel of John is used as a doorway by which we try to enter into a profound contact with the Heart of the One who loves us...into the very throbbing heartbeat of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

It seems that the wish to benefit all, and to lavish indiscriminately upon the first comer one’s own gifts, was not a thing altogether commendable, or even free from reproach in the eyes of the many; seeing that the gratuitous waste of many prepared drugs on the incurably-diseased produces no result worth caring about, either in the way of gain to the recipient, or reputation to the would-be benefactor. Rather such an attempt becomes in many cases the occasion of a change for the worse. The hopelessly-diseased and now dying patient receives only a speedier end from the more active medicines; the fierce unreasonable temper is only made worse by the kindness of the lavished pearls, as the Gospel tells us. I think it best, therefore, in accordance with the Divine command, for any one to separate the valuable from the worthless when either have to be given away, and to avoid the pain which a generous giver must receive from one who treads upon his pearl,’ and insults him by his utter want of feeling for its beauty.
