Beschreibung
The King James Bible is a treasure-trove of idioms and cliches that have entered everyone's vocabulary-and yet few are aware of the Bible as their source.Whetheryour interest is purely linguistic, theological, or devotional,this book assumes no priorfamiliarity with the scriptures. Byproviding the context of each book and phrase it becomes a usefulguidebook, bringing the Bible alive. With 40 phrases in the firstsection and 25 in the second, it can evenbe used through the days ofLent and Advent.Takinga phrase from each book and exploring its origins and modern usage,Richard Noble gives afascinating glimpse into this 'inestimabletreasure', the firstmainstream English translation andstill unequalled in linguistic beauty.
