A good choice for research is the Oxford Annotated Bible, one of which I gots
if someone can fill me in on exactly what needs looking up.  I seem to have
missed the origin of this thread.   Alternatively, if the person making the
orginal request has access to a university library, they probably have a copy
of the OAB in the reference section.
