Abstract:
The biblical text has a very rich history in the context of lexical semantics. This important
aspect comes from his millenary tradition, being the most translated text from all times. The Bible
or the Holy Scripture contain expressions with symbolical meaning, allegorical constructions used
in a spiritual context, etymologically interpretations which give us the possibility to understood the
history of terms and their evolution. In our study, we will try to describe in a brief outline the lexical
semantics characteristics of the biblical text. In this concern, we will refer to the next points of view:
etymology, semantic changes, basic concepts and sense relations. Our research will have as
support the official Romanian and English Versions of Bible.
