Illustrated Manners and Customs of the Bible

Publication

Notes: A reference volume on how the people of the Bible actually lived — dress, food, farming, trade, warfare, worship, burial — covering some six thousand topics with a full subject index. Open Library has the title and the series the wrong way round, recording it as “Nelson's Super Value Series” with the real title as subtitle; the cover reads Illustrated Manners and Customs of the Bible, with Nelson's Super Value Series as the price-line banner above it. That banner is a format line rather than a series, so no series record is made for it. Packer's authored works are catalogued here under his fuller name.
