I do not own the HarperCollins Bible Dictionary but would like to know if it discusses Samaria or Samariatians inside. If so does this book have a detailed study on it within its articles?

    It does. In general, the HCBD is a fairly concise reference work with just a few paragraphs at most for each entry. It's good for a quick overview from a non-evangelical perspective, but it does not come anywhere near the depth of the Anchor Yale BD or even the Lexham Bible Dictionary.
