Description
Excerpt from Bible Word-Book: A Glossary of Scripture Terms Which Have Changed Their Popular Meaning, or Are No Longer in General Use
During the two and a half centuries since the first publication of the English version of the Scriptures in 1611 many words have gone nearly or quite out of use, and others have come to be used in a different sense from that intended by the translators. Both classes of words require explanation and, in most cases, their meaning is best illustrated and most clearly apprehended by quotations from old English writers, Where they are used in the same sense as in our version of the Scriptures.
