Product Information

Biblesoft's Biblical Language Study Bundle brings together the power of Girdlestone's Synonyms of the Old Testament and the Grammar of the Septuagint by F.C. Conybeare and George Stock, along with Trench's Synonyms of the New Testament and E. W. Bullinger's Figures of Speech.

Figures of Speech: Figures of Speech Used in the Bible is an extensive reference book and study guide for serious Bible students. 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 student or theologian. 

Figures of Speech features

  • An extensive content outline makes finding figures of speech in various categories a snap to find
  • Thousands of Bible verses used to illustrate various figures are linked which makes Figures of Speech a first-rate word study commentary.
  • Many of the articles contain outline diagrams to clearly illustrate form usages as they occur in a particular figure of speech.
  • Numerous topics are cross referenced for further study
  • All figures included are categorized by their topical link under the Topics menu. 

Trench's Synonyms of the New Testament: This work was first published in 1854 by Trench, an Anglican archbishop at Dublin. It has been in print nearly all the time since. Trench had a genius for understanding Biblical Greek, and the proper synonyms of the same. He was able to express himself in a way that is easily understood and this shows through the pages of this work which compares well to modern-day word study references.

A thorough discussion is given of the meaning and use of each of 117 sets of Greek word synonyms. Comparisons between words are detailed and explanations given as to why they are used in various parts of the Bible.The Greek of the Septuagint is used to draw comparisons to Hebrew words and how their subtle meanings have been translated.

Trench's Synonyms Features 

  • More than 300 articles provide incredible thematic and semantic detail on an impressive array of Greek words and why understanding their synonyms is important. The presentation is similar in detail and scope to The Theological Dictionary of the New Testament (Kittel) and the Louw and Nida Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament.
  • Keyed through Strong's numbers, this reference serves as an easy-to-use lexicon chocked full of incredible word study resource
  • Old Testament and Apocrypha references are targeted to the Septuagint, NT references to the TR 1550

The extended readings with verse-by-verse commentary, makes Grammar of Septuagint Greek a much more valuable way to learn how the underlying Hebrew was translated. Included are explanations of variant translations that differ from the Masoretic text, as well as analysis that clarifies difficult passages in the Hebrew.

All Old Testament and Apocrypha references are keyed to bring up the Septuagint text as a default. New Testament references are keyed to access the NA27.
