The names you see on these pages — especially names of places and people-groups — may not perfectly match those found in your Bible. Different Bible translators have rendered foreign names different ways in English, and so not all translations agree.

Though not the most accurate, in deference to tradition I have usually — but not always — used names as they appear in the King James Version of the Bible.
