In my view, the Christian religion is the most important and one of the first things in which all children, under a free government ought to be instructed... No truth is more evident to my mind than that the Christian religion must be the basis of any government intended to secure the rights and privileges of a free people.

CRE-ATE', v.t. [Fr. creer; It. creare; Sp. and Port. criar; L. creo; Arm. croui; Corn. gurei. In W. crëu signifies to create, and creu, to cry, to crave, to caw, to beg. W. creth and crez, constitution, temper; also, a trembling or shivering with cold. Ir. croth or cruth, form, shape; cruthaighim, to create, to prove, assert, maintain. From the Celtic then it appears that the L. creo is contracted by the loss of a d or th. The Welsh has also cri, a cry, and criaw, to cry, both deduced by Owen from cre; but cre is a contraction of crevu, to cry, or of gryd, a crying or whooping, or cryd, a shaking. In Welsh also cri signifies rough, raw, crude; all which unite in the root of cry, cradle, L. rudo, to bray. The primary sense of create and of cry is the same, to throw or drive out, to produce, to bring forth, precisely as in the Shemitic ברא. But the Welsh crëu and creu may perhaps be from different roots, both however with the same primary sense.]

Noah's 1828 Dictionary

First dictionary of the American Language!

Noah Webster, the Father of American Christian education, wrote the first American dictionary and established a system of rules to govern spelling, grammar, and reading. This master linguist understood the power of words, their definitions, and the need for precise word usage in communication to maintain independence. Webster used the Bible as the foundation for his definitions.

This standard reference tool will greatly assist students of all ages in their studies.

No other dictionary compares with the Webster's 1828 dictionary. The English language has changed again and again and in many instances has become corrupt. The American Dictionary of the English Language is based upon God's written word, for Noah Webster used the Bible as the foundation for his definitions. This standard reference tool will greatly assist students of all ages in their studies. From American History to literature, from science to the Word of God, this dictionary is a necessity. For homeschoolers as well as avid Bible students it is easy, fast, and sophisticated.

* As a note, I have purchased each of these products. In fact, as we have been developing the Project:: 1828 Reprint, I have purchased several of the bulky hard-cover dictionaries. My opinion is that the 2000-page hard-cover edition is the only good viable solution at this time. The compact edition was a bit disappointing and the CD-ROM as well.
