Meanings of words in the Bible.

Sometimes when reading the scriptures with young children it can be difficult for them to know what some of the words mean.  Even I am not sure of what all the words mean in the Bible.

What Lifeway Christian Stores has come out with is The Illustrated Bible Dictionary for Kids.  It has full color illustrations, photographs and maps for many of the words used throughout the Bible. 

Something unexpected happened in my family after I received this.   My children began reading the Bible more often just to be able to look up words in The Illustrated Bible Dictionary for Kids

The Illustrated Bible Dictionary for Kids is so engaging for my children I have even caught them reading it like a book. 

While The Illustrated Bible Dictionary for Kids has more than 500 words, it is not a complete enough dictionary for me to have as the only dictionary, it is well worth it to have as an additional dictionary.  It has meanings of words and people commonly referred to in the Bible.

When I asked Emily to tell me her review of the Bible she mentioned how she really liked the way the words were organized.  Obviously they are still in alphabetical order, she liked the way there are lined columns to show the words.  It does really make it easier to read.  She also liked the way each word had the picture associated with it, right near it. 

The Illustrated Bible Dictionary for Kids sells for $14.99 at Lifeway Christian Stores, or you can find a store near you with their store locator
