Drawing on Lytton John Musselman's extensive field investigations from Beirut to Borneo and from the Atlas to the Zagros mountains, it also includes his original images of each plant. Incorporating new research on their use, reviews are made of recent analytical studies of plants used in materials and technology as well as ancient grains, beer production, medicine, tensile materials, soap and other articles. Based on these materials, Musselman provides several new plant identifications for controversial biblical passages. In addition, the book surveys the history of Bible plant literature from the time of the Greeks and Romans to the present, and reviews and correlates it with Bible plant hermeneutics. Extensive references for further study are provided, along with an index to all verses containing references to these plants. 606 $aPlants in the Bible$vDictionaries 615 0$aPlants in the Bible 676 $a220.8/5803 700 $aMusselman$b Lytton John$f1943-$0718226 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778951503321 996 $aDictionary of Bible plants$91392522 997 $aUNINA
