Webster's 1828 Dictionary of English Language
The meanings of words change over time. Take the word "marriage," for example. Who knows how a modern secular dictionary will define it tomorrow? Fortunately, we have a standard available that will not change, because the definitions are based on the word's Biblical usage and basis in one of 26 original languages. This reprint of Noah Webster's classic is nearly a textbook in itself, as it gives examples of word usage from classical literature and the Bible. What better way to understand the writings of America's founding fathers than to define their words as they would have understood them.
Noah Webster’s 1828 American Dictionary of the English Language will enrich your understanding of the English language and is an invaluable tool for daily study. This beautiful and durable dictionary is essential for scholars, students, home educating families, pastors, educators or anyone conducting in-depth research and is a necessity in any home.
The dictionary presents definitions in a clear manner with comprehensive explanations, often excluded from modern dictionaries. It defines words using their full etymology, tracing roots in 26 languages and explains meanings using examples from literature, historic documents, the Bible and other classic sources. It is also a valuable primary source document for historians and legal scholars, since it reflects English usage during America’s founding generation.
This tool can be the turning point for you to be more effective in communicating Christian principles used in government, economics, and marketing, or for your student to clearly understand how the Bible has influenced every area of life. It will strengthen your vocabulary, equip you for Christian leadership, give you an edge in communicating your view and become an indispensable tool for thinking and reasoning Biblically.
