Modern scholarship makes this the Vine's for the twenty-first century. For years, "Vine's Expository Dictionary" has been the standard word study tool for pastors and laypeople, selling millions of copies. But sixty-plus years of scholarship have shed extensive new light on the use of biblical Greek and Hebrew, creating the need for a new, more accurate, more thorough dictionary of Bible words. William Mounce, whose Greek grammar has been used by more than 100,000 college and seminary students, is the editor of this new dictionary, which will become the layperson's gold standard for biblical word studies. "Mounce's" is ideal for the reader with limited or no knowledge of Greek or Hebrew, but who wants greater insight into the meaning of biblical words to enhance Bible study. It is also the perfect reference for busy pastors needing to quickly get at the heart of a word's meaning without wading through more technical studies. What makes Mounce's superior to Vine's?This work includes: the most accurate, in-depth definitions based on the best of modern evangelical scholarship; both Greek and Hebrew words are found under each English entry ( Vine's separates them); employs both Strong's and G/K numbering systems; Mounce'saccuracy is endorsed by leading scholars.
