Indexes To All Editions Of Bdb Hebre English Lexicon [Paperback]

Although Thayer's Lexicon is alphabetical according to the 5624 Greek words of the Bible, the 8674 Hebrew-Aramaic words of the Old Testament are not alphabetical in the most used Hebrew lexicon, Brown-Driver-Briggs - Gesenius Hebrew and English Lexicon.

Then the alphabetical listing of the Hebrew words is in the second column. The third column then gives the page and column where the word is discussed in the Hebrew lexicon. This takes all the mystery, and the frustration, out of using the Brown-Driver-Briggs Hebrew-Aramaic lexicons. Even the learned Hebrew scholars are apt to forget the root word unless he or she is constantly using them in regular practice.
