Well, you have to have the right references

"the right references"
I presume you mean books ... or perhaps you have a goetic servitor that tells you these things?
Actually, Strong's Bible Concordance, available at numerous addresses on the internet, is a great reference.

This is a bit off subject, but your mention of Strong's Concordance has me thinking. To your knowledge, has anyone ever put together a Class A Concordance? Cross-referencing the Holy Books is a task I have been at for some time now - & a concordance would save a great deal of my time...if not, maybe that's what I should be doing!

"Either is acceptable
But yes, I meant books. Strong's is good as far as it goes, but isn't so hot for Heew etymology.

Is there a program that will search multiple libri for a single reference?

I don't know of any - except that I have most of them in Microsoft Word files on my computer and can just use that program's Find feature.

I think you might find a lot of reference to this in Rituals of freemasonry.
( Especially the York Rite...from the roots, right to the answer to your question).This is from a speculative point of view, and is based on old testament allegory/ symbolism, as well as the "Sumerian" roots:-)
I do like Jim's qabalistic approach as well.

In my far-off youth I compiled a concordance of CCXX and mailed a copy to some Thelemites I was corresponding with at the time. (The only ones I had managed to find, and the only ones I encountered for decades -- they were in Florida and I was in Kentucky). They said they had no idea what it might be used for.
Sadly, I no longer have it. Even more sadly, I no longer have the very fine edition of CCXX that I used. I have no idea what happened to either of them. -
