An English translation of the third edition of the Hebrew dictionary for the Old Testament and related literature in Hebrew and Aramaic. Contains the complete vocabulary of the Hebrew Bible, extended with variants from the Oriental and Samaritan textual traditions, the Ben Sira fragments, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and other material. Arranged in strict alphabetical order, rather than by verbal roots as in many older dictionary, and so is particularly easy for beginners in Hebrew to use. No indication is given here as to how many volumes the entire dictionary will comprise. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.Booknews
The third edition of Koehler and Baumgartner's Hebrew dictionary is widely regarded as the most up-to-date dictionary for the Old Testament and related literature in classical Hebrew and Aramaic. The complete and unabridged translation is being prepared in four volumes by an international team of Hebrew and Old Testament scholars, and will undoubtedly become the standard modern English dictionary for Biblical Hebrew. The dictionary contains the complete vocabulary of the Hebrew Bible, extended with variants from the Oriental and Samaritan textual traditions, the Ben Sira fragments, the Dead Sea Scrolls, etc. In addition to taking full advantage of advances that have been made in Semitic linguistics since the publication of older dictionaries, it offers a strictly alphabetical order of entries rather than an arrangement by verbal roots, making it especially suited to beginning students of classical Hebrew.
