A Comprehensive Bible: The Companion Bible provides self-explanatory notes to greatly aid the serious Bible student in gaining the most possible from the Bible with special attention to the intent of the original Bible languages as found in the Massoretic Hebrew Old Testament Text and the Greek Received Texts. A great many of the notes from the Massorah are also included. The amount of overall information provided is vast. References are given when the English language does not convey the full intent of the original Hebrew/Aramaic/Greek languages. Figures of speech and idioms are specially noted. The spiritual significance of numbers are pointed out. First occurrences of important words are noted. Eastern manners and customs are explained as needed to throw light on the Scriptures. The meanings of Proper Names of persons or places are given where these are suggestive. Money, coins, weights and measures are referred in every case. Chronology is explained for Biblical years which are often found in durations rather than dates. Structures of the Books are given as a guide to interpretation and proof of their Inspiration. This great Bible is not a commentary, but rather provides all the information possible to allow the Bible student to learn God’s Word directly without interference from preconceived traditions of men.
