Being cast up in shekels, drams, and from one talent to three hundred and fifty thousand talents, in plain words for the understanding of any that can read the Bible. Also in what chapters and verse or verses they are to be found. Likewise the weights and measures, how much they are English. And also, hard words of office and sects, and wherefore one part of the Bible is called canonical, and the other apocrypha, explained. By John Axford.
