A Biblical and Theological Dictionary explanatory of the history, manners, and customs of the Jews, and neighbouring nations

"A Biblical and Theological Dictionary" by Richard Watson is an early 19th-century guide for understanding the world of the Bible. It explains the history, habits, and traditions of the Jewish people and their neighbors, shining a light on important locations and figures from the Scriptures. It also dives into the main beliefs of Christianity and examines different Jewish and Christian groups and beliefs that were seen as wrong. In the book's beginning, Watson tells about how the dictionary is set up and what it's meant to do. Watson explains that the information comes from old and new writings, with updates and more details added to the things that are most important for understanding the Bible and the dictionary includes a list of names from the Bible, telling what they mean and how to say them.
