ATD at the Frankfurter Buchmesse

[Ya Sam]

Yeah, if it refers to the Bible that should influence the translation of the 
title, as in some language the phrase 'against the day' doesn' t sound good. 
But there are several phrases 'against the day' phrases, so which one to 
choose?

"against the day of my burying" John 12-7 (I wouldn't like this one as a 
title)

"agaisnt the day of  judgment and perdition" 2 Peter 3-7 (like this better)

"against the day of battle and war?" Job 38-23

"against the day of battle" Proverbs 21-31

"against the day of wrath and revelation" Romans 2-5

"against the day of necessity"  Tobit (Apocrypha) 4-9
