International Standard Bible Encyclopedia

This massive encyclopedia is a tremendous topical resource that covers thousands of topics and issues important to Biblical study by nearly 200 scholars (including greats like B. B. Warfield). It will be invaluable in Bible study, as one pastor put it "Of all the books I have I consult none nearly as often as the ISBE. I find it particularly valuable for topical studies and historical backgrounds. The material is extensive yet to the point... I have found the ISBE to be theologically sound. I highly recommend this set to any and all who desire to have a deeper understanding of God's word." This is the original (theologically conservative) edition.
