When NASB first came out, it was widely popular for Bible Studies because of its emphasis on literal translation from original Hebrew and Greek. Therefore NASB has been hailed as most accurate English Bible to date. Now, the NASB has been updated in 1995, modernizing some words and enhancing grammatical structure for readibility without compromising original NASB's accuracy.
And Zondervan has been wonderful for providing NASB Updated owners with its excellent Exhaustive Concordance! As many believers know, the value of exhaustive concordance is indiscribable for personal Bible Study. When Strong's Exhaustive Concordance for KJV came out, it revolutionalized the Bible Study and made believers' life much easier. Likewise, for NASB users, this is most valuable asset next to the Bible itself.
1. Zondervan NASB Exhaustive Concordance (ZNEC) is the ONLY Exhaustive Concordance out there for NASB. Initially, it was published by Foundation Publisher, but they sold the rights to Zondervan who actually made the concordance much better: (a) in more clear typeset. (b) in smaller size and weight than the previous one. (c) in overall quality (of cover design, binding, and the paper).
2. ZNEC is must have because: (a) It lists ALL the words of the NASB updated in alphabetical order with corresponding Bible references, so that you can quickly find the word(s) of the Bible easily. (b) It also includes the Strong's number for each word of the NASB. This is important for those who use additional Strong's references. You can use Strong's references without using KJV. (c) It includes corresponding Hebrew-Aramaic and Greek dictionaries for each NASB word [each entry is numbered with Strong's number]. This will help the readers know how the original word is used [and translated] in NASB -- providing insightful shades of meaning of the original. (d) Helpful instructions are given for use of the concordance and dictionaries.

In sum, if you own NASB Updated, then you need this tool for serious Bible Study. I love using it and I am confident that you will too.

A good concordance but it does not have the Strong's definitions I recommend getting one for the NASB with Strong's included.

They were quick in deliverying my item. Their delivery wrapping was good as well.
