![]() The New Strong's Expanded Dictionary Of Bible Words $29.99 If you want to dig deep this is the way to go. I wish I could get it as an ebook with an interlinear. ![]() The New Strong's Exhaustive Concordance Of The Bible Super Value Edition $24.99 "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." 2 Tim 2:15 "For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:" Isa 28:10 "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:" 2 Tim 3:16 This is a wonderful addition to the library of the student that wants to learn how to rightly divide the Word of Truth. Allowing the Bible to be its own interpreter is facilitated by the Strong's Exhaustive Concordance. I am not a theologian by any means. But you don't need to be a theologian to utilize this easy to use resource. What I like: * The price (I paid ~$12 on Amazon...) * The bible dictionary. This is not an indepth dictionary going into the nuances of each word but very informative on it's own right. I would advise supplementing with either Vine's Expository Dictionary of Old and New Testament Words: Super Value Edition or Mounce's Complete Expository Dictionary of Old and New Testament Words (I have Mounce's but some of the entries seem to be lacking theologically... I'll write a review of that once I've had it for a while). * The layout and visual cues (i.e. Words of Christ in bold, a brief contextual search so you know exactly what verse you're trying to find without searching all over. * "Industry" standard... All other software, tools for studying use the Strong's numbers for their references as well. What I don't like: * It's heavy (not that heavy... wish I could carry it around with me for adhoc study) * The writing is a little small. I don't wear glasses because I don't need them. However, it is a little easy to get lost if distracted. Practical use example: What is hope? I did a word study on the word hope and found some fascinating things. 1) Hope will end because we eventually will get what we are hoping for 2) The scriptures give us hope 3) We hope for the salvation 4) Hope is like a helmet protecting us and frames our experiences (trials/tribulations) so that we keep our trials and tribulations in perspective. 5) Our hope is the appearing of Jesus Christ. 6) This is from the Mounce's dictionary: Hope is a confident expectation (see Heb 11:1) ...and finally... 7) We must be ready always to give a reason of the hope that is within us with meekeness and fear (respect). 1 Pet 3:15 What better way to be able to give a reason than studying the scriptures and passing on the good tidings (gospel)? ![]() Bible Study Tools PDA Bible Package includes KJV with Strong's Numbers, Dictionaries, Cross References, Commentaries, a Devotional and more (for Palm OS and Pocket PC) $39.95 Using your Palm OS or Pocket PC device, read and explore the time-honored King James Version of the Bible with this package of tools.
