5.0 out of 5 stars The Deal, March 5, 2000

By	Meg (Dartmouth) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Hebrew-Greek Key Word Study Bible/New International Version (Hardcover)

When I was thinking of buying this Bible, I found that the information given was a bit inadequate and confusing, so I'm writing this review so that you can know just what it is that you're getting. I got the Hebrew-Greek Key Word Study Bible in NIV. What it is is an NIV text in English with introductions at the beginning of each book, footnotes, NIV text notes, NIV cross-references, and Kohlenberger numbers, with grammatical codes and their explanation, a guide to transliteration of the Hebrew and Greek alphabets, lexical aids, a scripture index, the NIV concordance, and Kohlenberger's Dictionaries of Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek, attached at the end. How it works is, in the text many of the words in each verse have a number next to them. You can look up that number in the appropriate dictionary to find the original language word corresponding to it and a full definition of that word. Also, many of these words also have more lengthy and detailed explanations in the Lexical Aids section, for more insight. Also included is an index that cross-references between Kohlenberger's and Strong's number system, so you can also look them up in Strong's if you have it. It's really helpful and interesting; I like it! =)

4.0 out of 5 stars An incredibly useful study tool!, January 12, 1999

By	[e-mail] (Silver City, New Mexico) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Nasb Key Word Study Bibles: Genuine Burgundy Lthr (Hardcover)

I prefer the NASB translation due to the accuracy of its translation and was very pleased to find it available in this study Bible. The Greek & Hebrew Strong's numbers inserted in the text plus the complete Strong's Concise Dictionary and additional Greek and Hebrew helps are wonderful. The editor's notes at the bottom of some pages are also informative. I recommend this Bible to any serious student of the Bible who would like a decent measure of Greek and Hebrew help in a single portable Bible. To keep the Bible from getting overly large (it's quite a reasonable size now) it doesn't index as many words as I would have liked, but it is enough to be useful when I am away from home and my more extensive study tools. The one thing I would have definitely preferred (even at the cost of increased size) is larger type. It is set in a very crisp, 10 point (I would guess), serifed, typeface which is readable but still small for my over-40 eyes even with my reading glasses.

4.0 out of 5 stars NASB Key Word Study Bible, April 3, 2000

By	S. A. Hildebrand "S. A. Hildebrand" (Longview, Texas United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Bib the Hebrew-Greek Key Study Bible Nasb Hardbound Indexed (Hardcover)

Let me begin this review by stating that I'm reviewing the NASB version of this study bible. I have also used an older version of this bible in the KJV, but my comments will be directed to the NASB edition. I recently acquired one of these bibles and it has truly been useful to me in my studies. You must realize that although our translations are good (the NASB being an excellent example) they are only efforts at translation. THEY ARE NOT PERFECT! The only way to truly read the unflawed word of God is to read it in the original language. Unless you're a scholar this might be impossible. This bible makes that a reality! Did you know that there are four different greek words that are translated "love" in the New Testament? If you didn't know that you might apply the same meaning to "love" everywhere it occurs. This does not allow you to reach the truest meaning of some passages. This bible allows you to know what the original language said, so that you can compare alternate translations with what is actually written. It also gives insight to the different clauses used in greek and how they compare to english clauses. It has very extensive cross references and complete Hebrew and Greek dictionaries (both tied to Strong's numbering system) in the back. Additionally, it has a complete set of lexical aids tied to many of the Strong numbers, and the complete NASB concordance. In short, this is a study bible for the serious student who wishes to unlock the meaning of scriptures by way of the original language. If you're looking for more general study with application notes, then you would probably be happier with the NASB study bible (see my review) or a Life Application Bible. Supplementary, it doesn't include the 1995 update to the NASB text. I really enjoy mine, but I don't used it exclusively for my study.
