Noah Webster
Websters Dictionary 1828
This online edition has been carefully prepared in a special format. All words, definitions, and examples have been preserved, but the explanations of word origins have been left out to make the data easier to use in a digital format. We have also removed Webster's long technical introduction for the same reason.
Scripture references have been converted to a modern format, and many abbreviations have been expanded to make them easier to understand.
Obeisance
OBE'ISANCE, noun [Latin obedio.]
A bow or courtesy; an act of reverence made by an inclination of the body or the knee. Genesis 37:7.
