Interest to the Biblical expressions grew lately immensely not only by writers, publicists, and ordinary people but also by scholars-linguists, lexicographers.

The vast majority of the Biblical phrases are widely applied by the Russians and the English people in their daily life.

Phraseological expressions of the Biblical origin can be found on the pages of magazines and newspapers, on Radio and TV programs.

Correct and proper usage of the Biblical sayings gives viability and exactness, expressive and imaginative features to the public speeches.
