Happy Homeschooler Posted May 24, 2006 Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 I was reading in the Bible Dictionary today about Jerusalem and came across an abbreviation I did not recognize, nor could I find an explanation. It appeared after a couple of the scripture references given in the description of Jerusalem, ie: 2 Sam. 5:6 ff, and Josh. 10:1 ff. Does anyone know what it means?

I am a bibliophile though, which all good librarians are in my experience. :) No, I stumbled upon the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules rather by accident (read: Google.com, hahaha).
