Synopsis
"A Key To The Symbolical Language Of Scripture" by Thomas Wemyss is a scholarly reference work (Part 1 of 4) from a nineteenth?century theological series, The Biblical Cabinet; Hermeneutical, Exegetical, and Philological Library. It aims to explain how Scripture uses symbols, distinguishing symbol from emblem and type, and treats symbols as representative signs whose meaning depends on context, properties of the symbolized object, and historical usage. Drawing on classical and theological authorities such as Daubuz, Vitringa, Ewaldus, Warburton, Oneirocritics, and cross?textual comparison across the Old and New Testaments, Hebrew/Greek idioms, and ancient non?biblical sources, the volume presents an alphabetically arranged dictionary of symbols. Each entry provides a definition, scriptural usage, nuances and possible senses, and cross?references to related symbols and passages. The work emphasizes that symbols illuminate prophetic and figurative language, may carry multiple meanings depending on genre and context, and require careful attention to historical background. It is intended for clergy, students, and educated readers engaged in careful exegesis; dense, reference?heavy, and catalog?like, with extensive authorities and parallel sources grounding symbolic meanings.
