Foreword
This is the compilation of American Tract Society Bible Dictionary and King James Bible. It contains 2,299 definitions and 209,998 cross-references. The reason for the high number of cross-references is that each word within a given definition is further linked to its own definition in, if such a definition exists. We have also included the King James Bible and linked the Bible references from the dictionary. And we have referenced the use of the definitions in the Bible back into the dictionary.

About The King James Bible
The King James Bible is often referred to as the King James Version (KJV). There are slightly different versions of the King James Bible and in this e-book we use the King James Pure Cambridge Version which we call KJB for short. The following information is an excerpt from Wikipedia:
King James Version - General History: The King James Version (KJV), also known as the Authorized Version (AV) or King James Bible (KJB), is an English translation of the Christian Bible for the Church of England begun in 1604 and completed in 1611. In 1612, the first King James Version using Roman Type was issued. This quarto version is only second to the 1611 folio KJV. First printed by the King's Printer Robert Barker, this was the third translation into English to be approved by the English Church authorities. The first was the Great Bible commissioned in the reign of King Henry VIII (1535), and the second was the Bishops' Bible of 1568. In January 1604, James I convened the Hampton Court Conference where a new English version was conceived in response to the perceived problems of the earlier translations as detected by the Puritans, a faction within the Church of England.
James gave the translators instructions intended to guarantee that the new version would conform to the ecclesiology and reflect the episcopal structure of the Church of England and its belief in an ordained clergy. The translation was done by 47 scholars, all of whom were members of the Church of England. In common with most other translations of the period, the New Testament was translated from Greek, the Old Testament was translated from Hebrew and Aramaic text, while the Apocrypha was translated from the Greek and Latin. In the Book of Common Prayer (1662), the text of the Authorized Version replaced the text of the Great Bible – for Epistle and Gospel readings (but not for the Psalter which has retained substantially Coverdale's Great Bible version) and as such was authorized by Act of Parliament. By the first half of the 18th century, the Authorized Version had become effectively unchallenged as the English translation used in Anglican and Protestant churches, other than for the Psalms and some short passages in the Book of Common Prayer of the Church of England. Over the course of the 18th century, the Authorized Version supplanted the Latin Vulgate as the standard version of scripture for English-speaking scholars. With the development of stereotype printing at the beginning of the 19th century, this version of the Bible became the most widely printed book in history, almost all such printings presenting the standard text of 1769 extensively re-edited by Benjamin Blayney at Oxford; and nearly always omitting the books of the Apocrypha. Today the unqualified title 'King James Bible' commonly identifies this Oxford standard text.

A -
American T.S.
The first letter in almost all alphabets. In Hebrew, it is called aleph, in Greek, alpha
a
, the last letter in the Greek alphabet being omega
a
. Both the Hebrews
a
and Greeks used their letters
a
as numerals; and hence A (aleph or alpha
a
) denoted one, or the first. So our Lord
a
says, "I am Alpha
a
and Omega
a
, the beginning and the end, the first and the last;" thus declaring his eternity and that he is the cause and end of all things,

Aaron -
American T.S.
The son
a
of Amram and Jochabed, of the tribe
a
of Levi
a
, and brother
a
of Moses
a
and Miriam
a
,
Ex 6:20
; born about the year
a
B. C. 1574. He was three
a
years older than Moses
a
,
Ex 7:7
; and was the spokesman and assistant of the latter in bringing Israel
a
out of Egypt
a
,
Ex 4:16
. His wife was Elisheba
a
, daughter of Amminadab
a
; and his sons, Nadab
a
, Abihu
a
, Eleazar
a
, and Ithamar
a
. He was 83 years old when God
a
summoned him to join Moses
a
in the desert
a
near Horeb
a
. Cooperating with his brother
a
in the exodus
a
from Egypt
a
,
Ex 4:1
-16:36, he held up his hands in the battle with Amalek
a
,
Ex 17:1
-16; and ascended Mount Sinai
a
with him to see the glory of God
a
,
Ex 24:1
;
Ex 24:2
;
Ex 24:9
-11. Aarons chief distinction consisted in the choice of him and his male posterity for the priesthood. He was consecrated the first high priest
a
by Gods
a
directions,
Ex 28:1
-29:46
Lv 8:1
-36; and was afterwards confirmed in his office by the destruction of Korah
a
and his company, by the staying of the plague
a
at his intercession
a
, and by the budding of his rod
a
,
Nu 16:1
-17:13. He was faithful
a
and self-sacrificing in the duties of his office, and meekly "held his peace" when his sons Nadab
a
and Abihu
a
were slain,
Lv 10:1
-3. Yet he fell sometimes into grievous sins: he made the golden calf
a
at Sinai
a
,
Ex 32:1
-22; he joined Miriam
a
in sedition
a
against Moses
a
,
Nu 12:1
-16; and with Moses
a
disobeyed God
a
at Kadesh,
Nu 20:8
-12. God
a
, therefore did not permit him to enter the promised land; but he died on Mount Hor
a
, in Edom
a
, in the fortieth year
a
after leaving Egypt
a
, at the age of about 123 years,
Nu 20:22
-29;
Nu 33:39
. In
De 10:6
, he is said to have died at Mosera, which was probably the station in the valley
a
west of Mount Hor
a
, whence he ascended into the mount. The Arabs still pretend to show his tomb
a
on the mount, and highly venerate it. In his office as high priest
a
, Aaron was an eminent type
a
of Christ
a
, being "called of God
a
," and anointed; bearing the names
a
of the tribes on his breast; communicating Gods
a
will by Urim and Thummim
a
; entering the Most Holy place on the Day
a
of Atonement
a
, "not without blood
a

a
the people of God

The fifth month

a
of Aaron

Abana, and pharpar -
American T.S.
Rivers of Damascus
a
,
2K 5:12
. The Abana, (or, Amana
a
), was undoubtedly the present Barada, the Chrysorrhoas of the Greeks. It is a clear, cold, and swift mountain stream, rising in Anti-Lebanon, north
a
east
a
of Hermon
a
, flowing south east
a
into the plain
a
, and near Damascus
a
turning eastward, skirting the northern wall of the city
a
, and terminating 20 miles east
a
in one of three
a
large lakes. It is a perennial river
a
, and so copious, that though no less than nine or ten branches or canals are drawn off from it to irrigate the plain
a
and supply the city
a
and the villages around it, the stream is a large one to the end. The only other independent river
a
of any size in the territory of Damascus
a
is the Awaj, which crosses the plain
a
south of Damascus
a
, and enters the southernmost of the three
a
lakes above referred to. This is supposed to be the Pharpar
a
of the Bible
a
. As these rivers of Damascus
a
were never dry, but made the region they watered like the Garden of Eden
a
for fertility and beauty, Naaman
a
might well contrast them with most of "the waters of Israel

The second son

a
a sacrifice
a
from his flocks
a
, at the same time
a
that Cain
a
his brother

offered the fruits of the earth
a
. God
a
had respect to Abels sacrifice
a
, and not to Cains; hence Cain
a
in anger
a
killed Abel,
Ge 4:1
-26. It was "by faith
a
" that Abel offered a more acceptable sacrifice
a
than Cain
a
; that is, his heart was right towards God
a
, and he worshipped Him in trustful obedience to the divine directions. His offering
a
, made by the shedding of blood
a
, was that of a penitent sinner confiding in the atonement
a
ordained of God
a
; and it was accepted, "God
a
testifying of his gifts
a
," probably by fire
a
from heaven
a
; "by which he obtained witness
a
that he was righteous," that is, justified,
Heb 11:4
. "The blood
a
of Abel" called from the ground for vengeance

a
of Christ
a
claims forgiveness and salvation

Abiathar -
American T.S.
Son
a
of Ahimelech
a
, and tenth high priest
a
of the Jews
a
. When Saul
a
sent his emissaries to Nob
a
, to destroy all the priests there, Abiathar, who was young, fled to David
a
in the wilderness
a
,
1S 22:11
-23, with whom he continued in the character of priest
a
,
1S 23:9
;
1S 30:7
. Being confirmed in the high priesthood on Davids accession to the throne
a
, he aided in bringing up the ark to Jerusalem
a
,
1Co 15:11
;
1Co 15:12
, and adhered to David
a
during the rebellion of Absalom
a
,
2S 15:35
, but afterwards was led to follow Adonijah
a
, thus strangely betraying his royal friend
a
in his old age. Solomon
a
succeeding to the throne
a
, degraded him from the priesthood, and sent him to Anathoth
a
,
1K 2:26
;
1K 2:27
; thus fulfilling the prediction made to Eli
a
150 years before,
1S 2:27
-36. Saul
a
, it would appear, had transferred the dignity of the high priesthood from the line of Ithamar
a
, to which Eli
a
belonged, to that of Eleazar
a
, by conferring the office upon Zadok
a
. Thus there were, at the same time
a
, two high priests in Israel
a
; Abiathar with David
a
, and Zadok
a
with Saul
a
. This double priesthood continued from the death
a
of Ahimelech
a
till the reign of Solomon
a
, after which the office was held by Zadok
a
and his race
a
alone. A difficulty arises from the circumstance that, in
1K 2:27
, Abiathar is said to be deprived of the priests office by Solomon
a
; while in
2S 8:17
;
1Ch 18:16
;
1Ch 24:3
;
1Ch 24:6
;
1Ch 24:3
1, Ahimelech
a
the son
a
of Abiathar is said to be high priest
a
along with Zadok
a
. The most probable solution is, that both father
a
and son
a
each bore the two names
a
Ahimelech
a
and Abiathar, as was not at all unusual among the Jews
a
. See under ABIGAIL
a
. In this was also we may remove the difficulty arising from
Mk 2:26
, where Abiathar is said to have given David
a
the showbread, in allusion to
1S 21:1
-6, where it is Ahimelech
a
.

a
, particularly barley
a
, was in ear at the time
a
. On the tenth of this month
a
the passover-lamb was set apart; it was killed on the fourteenth towards sunset, and eaten the same evening
a
after the fifteenth day
a
had begun. The seven
a
days from the fifteenth to the twenty-first inclusive, were "the feast of unleavened bread

The second son

Ex 28:21

a
from the Lord
a

a
his brother

a
with common
a
fire
a
instead of that kept perpetually on the altar
a
of burnt-offering,
Lv 10:1
-2;
Lv 16:12
;
Nu 16:46
. As this is immediately followed by the prohibition of wine
a
to the priests when ministering in the tabernacle
a
, it is not improbable that Nadab
a
and Abihu were intoxicated when thus transgressing. Their death
a
is a solemn warning not to presume to worship God
a
except with incense
a
kindled at the one altar
a
which Christ
a
hath sanctified,
Heb 10:10
-14. It is a dangerous thing, in the service of God
