A complete christian dictionary

Wherein the significations and several acceptations of all the words mentioned in the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New-Testament are fully opened, expressed, explained; also, very many ambiguous speeches, hard and difficult phrases therein contained, are plainly interpreted, cleered, and expounded. Tending to the increase of Christian knowledge, and serving for the use of all, especially the unlearned, who have no skill in the originall languages, Hebrew and Greek, wherein the Scriptures were first written; and may be unto masters of the gospel, masters of family, private christians instead of a concordance, a commentary on all scriptures
Begun by that famous and worthy man of God, Mr. Thomas Wilson, minister of the word at St. Georges in Canterbury, and one of the six preachers there. Continued by Mr. John Bagwell. Augmented and enlarged with a sixfold addition: I. Of above thousand words, with their several acceptations, all wanting in the former editions. II. Of many more acceptations of the same words, mentioned and to be found therin. III Of a great number of hard and difficult phrases, not cleared at all in the former impressions; with a further explanation of man others therein set down. IV. Of the snterpretations of the proper names of men, women, countries, cities, rivers, mountains, &c. mentioned in the Holy Scriptures. V. Of the nature and properties of such beasts, fowls, fishes, tree, plants, fruits, seeds, stones, &c. as are named therein. VI. Of the divers readings set in the margents of the Bibles of the last translation. Extracted out of the most approved authors, both ancient and modern, especially Petri Ravanelli Bibliotheca sacra
