Note: The page numbering distinguishes between the two sections of this volume: the articles section (which provides general scholarly information about the Bible and its times as a background for study) and the biblical books with annotations and introductions. The biblical text is numbered uninterruptedly in ordinary Arabic numerals from Genesis to the Revelation of John, including the Apocrypha. The page numbers of the articles are marked with an asterisk (*). Readers will thus be able to determine immediately where they are in the text. |
