Studies in Biblical and Semitic Symbolism by Maurice H. Farbridge is a scholarly work that explores the use of symbols in the Bible and other Semitic texts. The author examines the meaning and significance of various symbols such as animals, plants, colors, and numbers, and how they are used to convey spiritual and moral truths. Farbridge draws on a wide range of sources, including ancient Near Eastern texts, Jewish and Christian traditions, and modern scholarship, to offer insights into the symbolic language of the Bible and its cultural context. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in biblical studies, semiotics, or the history of religion.1923.
