Bible Dictionary is an official publication of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). [1] Since 1979, Bible Dictionary has been published as an appendix to most copies of the King James Version (KJV) of the Bible printed by the LDS Church.
The new LDS edition of the Bible offers both a new dictionary prepared especially for Latter-day Saints and a type of concordance that is called the Topical Guide with Selected Concordance and Index. These are found in the Appendix constituting the latter third of the book.
