That's a minor issue, and I haven't read the entire dictionary so that could very well be the only scriptural mess-up. If I find those places where a word is referenced but not actually listed, I'll post those as well.
Again, excellent book overall, but the few errors in it stand out and can be annoying sometimes. ( )
