This concordance is an improved edition of The Englishman's Hebrew and Chaldee Concordance of the OT , the standard reference work first issued in 1843. Every Hebrew and Aramaic word of the OT is listed in Hebrew and alphabetical order, along with a brief rendering in English of every verse in the OT in which that Hebrew or Aramaic word appears. Each word is coded to Strong's, thus allowing even those who do not know Hebrew the opportunity to use this work.br/>
To have the Englishman's Hebrew Concordance of the Old Testament without having the Englishman's Greek Concordance of the New Testament would be like having a pepper shaker without its complimentary salt shaker! Seriously though, I must say this reference book is a necessity for any serious bible scholar. I've given my in-depth opinion on Englishman's counter-part, The Englishman's Greek Concordance of New Testament: Coded with Strong's Concordance Numbers that ought to be just as helpful when considering The Englishman's Hebrew Concordance of the Old Testament.
An Excellent Offering

The reviews had me expecting an inferior quality reference work, but I found it to be perfectly printed and bound. The copy I received was the sixth printing, of April 2006. The scholarship (though finished nearly 175 years ago) is excellent, thorough and easy to use. It is probably the only one of this type that anyone would ever need. Walter Winterfox

Top notch. Well worth the price. I'm a pastor and I find it an invaluable resource!
Perhaps the most useful book the Hebrew student will buy

This book lists every word in the Hebrew Bible alphabetically, giving every instance of the word's use-with a short quotation from the King James Version- in the bible. It is indispensible for exegesis or etymological study. Even if the reader does not know Hebrew, every English word used in the King James Bible is listed in the back of the book with the page number on which the corresponding Hebrew word can be found in the body of the book. Also, this book is about 1/3 the price of similar concordances.
