New From Timothy Cross: A Little Bird Told Me, Everyday Expressions from Scripture

"The writing is on the wall", "a drop in the ocean" and "from strength to strength". Just some of our everyday expressions which find their roots in the Bible! People quote biblical expressions without even knowing that they are doing so. Historically, the influence of the Bible has been so great that it has permeated the very fibre of the English language. Timothy Cross in this enlightening and Scripture rooted book reveals the origins of these sayings and considers their meaning.

Featured sayings inclue:

  • The apple of my eye
  • No room at the Inn
  • The writing is on the wall
  • The powers that be
  • God forbid!
  • God willing
  • 'He's been made a scapegoat ...'
  • Worthy of his hire

The full list of sayings found in the book can be found here: LINK.
