The Baker Encyclopedia of the Bible is a wonderful Bible reference written from an evangelical point of view. This four volume collection is edited by Walter A. Elwell, who is a professor of biblical and theological studies at Wheaton College Graduate School. Elwell set out to create a Biblical encyclopedia that makes the Scriptures come alive for today's readers. He has succeeded.

The Baker Encyclopedia is so unique because it is two things at once. It is, on the one hand, a stunning work of scholarship, with contributions by over 175 of the world's foremost evangelical scholars. On the other hand, it is an extremely accessible and understandable work, one that can be read by students at any level and enjoyed by families and laypeople as well.

Complete with charts, maps, illustrations and photographs, the Baker Encyclopedia of the Bible is at once fascinating, enlightening and fun to read. Intended to serve as a companion for Bible readers, this title makes Bible study come alive and creates, for its reader, a true sense of relevance and immediacy. The encyclopedia covers a broad range of subjects from Biblical figures to current scholarly opinions.

The cutting edge design of Libronix Digital Library System makes the electronic version of the Baker Encyclopedia of the Bible much more useful than the print version. The table of contents is hyperlinked and the title has full-text search capability. That means that it is simple to travel around the work at lightning speed. Additional features such as the topic browser and reference browser make it even easier.
