- Around seven hundred signed articles on the Bible's books, persons, places, ideas and reception, written by scholars of several traditions and none — a reference work of the university rather than the church, which is what distinguishes it from the evangelical dictionaries also held here. Paginated xxi + 874, bibliography from page 831. Metzger, who edited it with Coogan, appears elsewhere in this catalogue as general editor of the Word Biblical Commentary.
