- catalog description "This dictionary owes its origin to a number of factors. Foremost among these was the need for such a dictionary among students of Biblical studies and theology. A second reason for compiling this dictionary is to be found in the fact that very few students of theology today have any knowledge of the ancient languages such as Greek, Hebrew and Latin, while much of our theological terminology is coined in terms of words derived from just those languages. To help our students understand the basic terms in those languages is, then, one of the aims of this dictionary. In the third place, theological studies over the past several decades, but more especially in recent years, have been breaking out of the isolation in which theology used to be pursued in the past. Today the pursuit of theology -- and most noticeably of Old and New Testament studies -- is an interdisciplinary affair. Fields such as philosophy, sociology, linguistics and literary theory today are making significant contributions to new insights in Biblical exegesis. In addition to university students of theology, serious readers of the Bible who seek to deepen their understanding -- 'Bible students' in another sense of the term -- likewise stand to benefit from a dictionary such as this. The main focus of the dictionary is on the fields of Old and New Testament studies and on the field of systematic theology. Covered less intensively are the terminologies of church history, history of dogma, practical theology, missiology and science of religion (to mention them in a decreasing order of intensity). In addition the dictionary contains terms from the related fields indicated earlier, notably philosophy, literary theory, and linguistics.".
