The New Manners & Customs of the Bible has over 700 Scripture references, in sequence, from Genesis to Revelation, hundreds of cross-references, dozens of popular expressions that came from the Bible, and many more black and white illustrations and photographs than in Freeman’s original version.

On a personal note, this stock description hardly does the book justice. It goes through all the books of the bible and makes note of all the major cultural practices of the times. It can be used as a reference from the index when you are looking to see what something means, for instance “trumpet” or “salt.” It can also be used side by side during your study through the bible so that you will benefit from the cultural knowledge even when you don’t realize that there may be some cultural implications in the text.
