One of the best books that I have seen in a long time!

This book is one of the most useful Bible reference books that I have ever had the pleasure of using. This book is based on the Jerusalem Bible (Old Testament, Apocrypha and New Testament), and published in 1978 (translated into English in 1981. It contains every personal and place name found throughout the Jerusalem Bible, giving such data as the number of references, translation of name, a short introduction to the person/place, and an exhaustive list of the scripture references.If you study the Bible for any reason, then I think that this book would be very useful to you. No one that I looked up could I not find, and the information is complete, giving you ever more information than you expected. This is one of the best books that I have seen in a long time!
