　　This Listing is for a Very Rare Theological Dictionary, published by the German community in Philadelphia at the beginning of the 1900-s, when the German culture in Philadelphia was extremely strong and German was taught in the schools and used for religious services, hence the demand for German print. This is one example of these early German publications in America. In English, this book is still being reprinted, making it collectible as a theological authority as well as an Antique American-German book.
