Something has gone south about this article.

I tried the pages and 840 is the Constitution at the end - after the dictionary. Page 347 is in the "J"s. As likely as this article being true is Pastor Standring's opinion that the Black's - especially Black's Fifth is a law dictionary of the British Crown. But mine is the paperback and he was saying that you have that proof in the back of the hardcover. In the video he was boasting his hardcover and talking about some sort of dedicatory paper.

That would support hoax articles like below - the Bar hoping people would discard their Black's Fifth Editions anyway...

Subject: Blacks Law Dictionary a hoax


This from Legal Name of the Lawmen



I ran across this interesting story about the Black’s Law Dictionary. Some have said that it constitutes a dictionary of commercial terminology since the practice of law amounts to nothing more than a commercial activity. Many people consider it as the authority on legal definitions. But according to the below story, the original author intended it as a hoax. Read the story, browse the dictionary (you can get a venerable 5th edition for as little as $10 or $15 on http://half.ebay.com).
