American Dictionary of the English Language (1828 Facsimile Edition)

This is very good for looking up words from the KJV of the Bible. There are a lot of words not used in today’s language that can be found in this dictionary. I have used it a lot and love it.

The 1828 Webster's Dictionary stands as an unparalleled work in American lexicography, serving as both a comprehensive repository and an educational arsenal. Its collection of terms is extensive and discerning, providing a lucid and accurate exposition of the English language. Etymological insights and precise definitions offer a profound understanding of words, making it an invaluable resource for scholars, students, and the general populace alike. Noah Webster's work contributes significantly to the advancement of knowledge and the refinement of linguistic expression. Moreover, the Christian grounding of this dictionary sets it apart as more than just a linguistic tool; it serves as a guide for virtuous and godly communication. Its definitions often incorporate ethical and scriptural principles, offering a holistic approach to language that enriches not just the mind, but the soul. In this way, the 1828 Webster's Dictionary stands as a monumental contribution to both the spiritual and intellectual edification of its users, making it an unparalleled asset to both the church and the republic of letters.

Very nice hardcover book, great library addition and for homeschooling and Bible study

I bought this for my husband. He loves it especially that is KJV compatible.

Reading is expeditiously

Fantastic dictionary. A must have for studying the Bible. Everyone should have one in their home.

It’s imperative that we preserve the true meaning of the words used in the translation of God’s word into the 1611 KJV HOLY BIBLE. It was during a morning study that God led me to understand through the Webster’s 1828 that the word Apostasy can relate to physicians, and that we are living through a great apostasy in this very hour. FALLING AWAY - G646 - Apostasia = Apostasy Webster’s 1828 = AMONG PHYSICIANS, THE THROWING OFF OF, THE VARIOUS SOLUTION OF DISEASE. [2Th 2:3 KJV] 3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for [that day shall not come], except there come a FALLING AWAY - G646 first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; In this hour, physicians across the earth are denying the proper treatments for disease in order to approve the emergency use of the inoculations. You do not want that stuff in your body. Look into it, pray about it, and prepare for trials and tribulations. Great darkness is on the horizon, and we’re not going to make it through, without the hand of God. This great apostasy could be the very event that precludes the revelation of that man of sin, and the beginning of the 3-1/2 year tribulation that Gods faithful will endure.

The first 27 pages need to be read by all. It includes The Dedication - the Seed Of The Giant Sequoia, page 3 (the Sequoia trees were around before Jesus was born in Bethlehem (Bet - lechem), Hebrew for House of Bread. Jesus is the Bread of Life) - title page - two sections on the dictionary itself - NOAH WEBSTER'S 1828 DICTIONARY NEEDED TO RESTORE AN AMERICAN CHRISTIAN EDUCATION IN THE HOME, THE CHURCH AND THE SCHOOL and NOAH WEBSTER FOUNDING FATHER OF AMERICAN SCHOLARSHIP AND EDUCATION. The book is literally 8-1/2 inches wide x 11 inches tall and 2-1/2 inches thick. Weighs over 6.2 pounds. All measurements are my own. The book was well packed. Came a week earlier than stated. It is a big and heavy book but opens very nicely and lays flat. The pages are not too thin and no text from the back side shows through. After the first 27 pages there are 88 pages of his picture, preface, INTRODUCTION and a section called Philosophical and Practical Grammar of the English language. The INTRODUCTION is absolutely amazing. Should be made available as a free pdf. The total book is over 2000 pages.

Thank you so much over there in Virginia: this is one beautiful dictionary and was amazed at the speed it arrived. This will help me greatly in the study of Gods word through the K.J.V. It shows just how watered down our language has become. And it was worth the money. God bless you and keep up the good work from me in Scotland.

This volume will go along well with my 1599 Geneva Bible-Patriot's Edition as well as my several King James Version Bibles. For some reason I was prompted by the Holy Spirit to buy it now on April 4th of 2026.

worth the buy.

I got this to help me understand the King James Bible better as some of the words aren't commonly used anymore and others are used differently now than in 1611. Very useful.

I have wanted a hard copy to supplement my electronic versions and I was so pleased to find it. This dictionary is the 'go to dictionary' for me when studying.
