The Bible is the most widely read book in the world with almost 4 billion copies. It has brought comfort to people throughout the ages by being read both silently and aloud. Correct pronounciation of names and places adds to the profound beauty of this holy book.
At last a Bible Pronouncing Guide that is simple, accurate, and easy to use. When reading the Bible, especially for a few verses or specific items, one does not want to search through a cumbersome Bible Dictionary to find the correct pronounciation of words - and losing the original train of thought in the search. This Guide can be located next to the scriptures for instant access. There is no Guide of this kind available anywhere else.
The simplified pronounciation is devired from The New Smith's Bible Dictionary (a theological standard). The diacritical marks have been carefully converted to a vowel key and correct syllable divisions and stresses have been maintained. With this simplified pronounciation legend, a person can read with confidence and clarity. Even a child can do it.
Which syllable should be stressed? What is the correct vowel to use? Names such as: Hashbadana (hash-BAD-uh-nah) or Pochereth-hazzebaim (PAWK-eh-rehth-HA-zee-BAY-ihm) are just a few clicks away and easy to pronounce.
Many languages are represented in the Bible, and each has particular rules of how to pronounce names and places. There are no hard and fast rules. These names and places have been preserved through millenia with specific pronounciations. There are over 3,000 names and places in the Guide.
The Guide has been sold on the Internet and various retail outlets. It is time to reach a broader public by making it into an eBook.
