This dictionary of figures of speech included in the Bible is an entirely 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 this work is to:
Examine each of the 217 figures of speech in its proper order and place
Provide the pronunciation of each name
Provide their etymology, explaining why they are given that name and what their meaning is
Present the biblical texts in which each figure is used, accompanied by a complete explanation.
