Description: Thesaurus Biblicus; or, Hand-Book of Scripture Reference. Compiled from the Latin of Philip Paul Merz. By the Rev. L. A. Lambert Waterloo, N. Y.: Observer Book Publication Co. 1880. Original 1880 edition of this classic work of Catholic Biblical study. From an online review: "The original work of Father Merz was published in 1731. It is an interesting, though by no means a solitary, fact that its author was converted to the Catholic Church by the study of the Scriptures. He was a Lutheran minister, and was ordained to the priesthood in the Catholic Church after his conversion. Father Lambert, the editor of the American edition in an English version, has amended and improved the original in his translation. The plan of the work is alphabetical. For example, under the letter A a number of words are selected, such as Abstinence, Adultery, Alms, Angel. Apostle, etc., and the principal texts relating to each of these headings are quoted in full. The headings are also frequently subdivided. One who desires to find texts relating to any particular topic, by referring to the in dex will find the page in the book where these texts are quoted, without difficulty. The convenience and utility of such a collection are obvious, and we have no doubt that the great service Father Lambert has rendered to the clergy will be fully appreciated." Format: 6.25 x 9.5" hc, red boards, 1,018pp, index.
