| Publisher Description: *Figures of Speech Used in the Bible* is an extensive reference book and study guide for serious Bible scholars. Written by famous theologian E.W. Bullinger, this dictionary of phrases classifies them into three distinct divisions: figures involving omission, addition, and change. He further breaks down whether figures affect the words themselves, the sense, meaning, order, or application of words. It includes both Greek and English translations of the figures in question, examples and illustrations, a detailed table of contents, appendices, and several indexes, including indexes of figures in both Greek and English, of subjects, structures, and texts, and of Hebrew and Greek words explained. This comprehensive study tool should be considered necessary for any serious Bible scholar or theologian. British clergyman ETHELBERT WILLIAM BULLINGER (1837-1913) was one of the most respected Bible scholars of the 19th century. He is author of numerous works including *Commentary on Revelation*, *Great Cloud of Witnesses*, and *How to Enjoy the Bible*. |
