This dictionary of figures of speech included in the Bible is a completely new and exhaustive work. It is new because it is the first time that figures of speech have been taken as a branch of biblical studies; it is exhaustive because it includes the facts and truths that form the basis of Christian faith, as well as the principles that underpin the very essence of the Reformation.
The purpose of the work refers to:
Examining each of the 217 figures of speech in its proper order and place
Providing the pronunciation of each name
Facilitating its etymology, explaining why it is given that name and what its meaning is
Presenting the biblical texts in which such a figure is used, accompanied by a complete explanation.
