Book Description
From Library Journal Using the time-tested categories of Roget to sort over 43,000 biblical references into subject groupings, Day, who worked with the Wycliffe Bible Translators and is the author of books on computer language and usage, has created a
unique and very useful reference work. It begins with a category listing by topics, which Day found necessary to add to the standard list. Each Roget category is included in the body of the work, with helpful cross references to other categories. Entries
under the categories consist of the author's paraphrase of the cited verses, with side headings that sort the listings into varying areas of interest within the category. The work concludes with an index to the Bible references as well as a subject
index. Because this thesaurus sorts by category rather than specific words from a biblical reference, it works with any translation of the Bible, unlike a concordance. Destined to become a standard in its field, this is highly recommended for all adult
reference collections. - Joanna M. Thompson, Bluefield State Coll. Lib., W. Va. Copyright 1992 Reed Business Information, Inc.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
Product Description: "Roget's
Thesaurus of the Bible" uses Roget's fundamental and brilliant categorey concept,which groups together all related subjects- similar and opposite- for quick and easy comparison. Unlike concordances, it is not tied to any one Bible version, nor is it
based on a particular theological system. In compiling the work, the most popular English translations were used- the Revised Standard Version, New International Version, and New American Standard- with references to the original Hebrew and Greek texts.
