Hitchcock’s Bible Names Dictionary
By Roswell D. Hitchcock
Have you ever wondered what the names of the people of the Bible mean? Is it significant? Some scholars think so. With this simple dictionary, you can find out for yourself what the name of almost any Biblical figure means. With that, perhaps you can find some hidden and revealing Truths tucked away in the scriptures. The Hitchcock’s Bible Names Dictionary was compiled from Hitchcock’s New and Complete Analysis of the Holy Bible (Circa 1869). For his work and subsequent works we owe, Roswell D. Hitchcock, a great debt of gratitude for this and other indispensable Bible study reference books.
A dictionary of Biblical names and their meaning from the original languages.
Brown The Devil's Mission of Amusement 7 page article from 1889. Hollywood in the church and her ministries. Brown was a student of C.H Spurgeon.
Excerpts:
Different days demand their own special testimony. The watchman who would be faithful to his Lord and to the city of his God needs to carefully note the signs of the times and to emphasize his witness accordingly. Concerning the testimony needed now, there can be little if any doubt. An evil is in the professed camp of the Lord, that is so gross, so brazen in its impudence, that the most shortsighted of spiritual men can hardly fail to notice it.... Amusement for the people is the leading article advertised by each... until the hideous fact has been proved up to the hilt, that "amusement" is ousting "the preaching of the Gospel" as the great attraction... The Concert is fast becoming as much a recognized part of church life as the Prayer Meeting; and it is already, in most places, far better attended.
"Providing recreation for the people" will soon be looked upon as a necessary part of Christian work, and as binding upon the Church of God, as though it were a Divine command, unless some strong voices are raised which will make themselves heard.
