The thesaurus is defined as containing a list of synonyms and antonyms (along with sometimes a short definition). A glossary provides definitions of words in a textbook's context (one definition per word's use there), and a dictionary gives multiple definitions and part of speech, not antonyms. So to find an antonym, a thesaurus is used.
