All-in-all a great tool for students of Hebrew and for those who want exposure to God's Word in its original language.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 23, 2018

Definitely a great study tool. It's what I wanted - the Hebrew text with interlinear "word-for-word" English under it. It also has the NIV on the side for easy access to a good English translation. As someone who has been studying Hebrew for only a year, I want as much exposure to the Hebrew text as possible. However, trying to flip between lexicons and English translations while reading the Hebrew gets tiring. Having it all in one place is handy and invaluable! It's a BIG book and not cheap, but worth it!

The reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 starts is because of the interlinear word choices. It seems that Kohlenberger III decided to use the NIV word choices under the Hebrew for a lot of the text, rather than a literal translation of the Hebrew word. This seems unnecessary, as the NIV translation is ALREADY provided on the side. Knowing the limited amount of Hebrew I do, I can identify numerous places where Kohlenberger III uses the less literal NIV translation of words. While obviously intentional, it was not what I wanted nor expected. The author's reasoning is that the NIV word choices were deliberate and were chosen by excellent scholars. However, we also know that the NIV is not as literal as some other translations (NASB, ESV). Why would I want a word-for-word interlinear Hebrew Bible if not for it's literalness? And why would I want the NIV on the side if not because I want to compare the literal words with the NIV's less literal translation? This does not make this not-useful to me as a Hebrew student, but it does take away somewhat from the final product I would have wanted.

All-in-all a great tool for students of Hebrew and for those who want exposure to God's Word in its original language. However, be aware that the "word for word" aspect is not quite as literal as one would think. The NIV word choices are used in place of the face-value literal meaning of the words.

Really Great Intelinear Bible

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 19, 2006

Verified Purchase

I mean if u r into getting bible translation truth and not just relying on translations made such as the NIV, King James, this is a great book. U can see that many bible today remove the true name of God (Yahweh-Jehovah) from the bibles and u can piece together sentences bases on the words available in each verse or line.....U can see some discrepencies such as Psalms 45:6, the NIV states " Your throne, O God, will last forever...." but yet in verse 7, the NIV states "....therefore God, your God, has set.....". What I notices is in verse 6 (which is line 7 in interlinear - be aware that interlinear is written from right to left) the translators put "O God" yet for verse 7 (which is line 8 in interlinear) the translators put "God" for the same characters. Why did it put an "O" in front of "God" for the same Hebrew word? Perhaps to make people identify the person being spoken to as "God"? Cause the 6 would have been read instead "Your throne, God, will last forever....." so therefore the person being spoken to isn't God but rather his throne is God or God is his throne.It's just like we would use this sentence, "the doctor, Lucy, is working on a patient". The doctor is Lucy or Lucy is the doctor so the same the throne is God or God is the throne. These are the games that translators play because they already believe in the trinity and they try to conform the bible to trinitarian standards. Rather than translate the bible as it was originally written, they add some here, take some there to make the bible fit their beliefs....By using intelinears u will see the inconsistencies within the bibles and trust me there are more verses being played with than just this one (John 1:1 for instance and many more). Please do not let bible translations fool u....I recommend the reading of "Truth in bible Translation" by David Beduhn, a great book exposing bible translations

It's a must!

This is the second copy of the Interlinear NIV Hebrew-English Old Testament I buy, and I have read it thoroughly twice. I try to read the original Hebrew first, and as I find an unknown word, I read the English word.
There are some caveats to this approach, though. The NIV is not a literal version, and so, more often than not, you will find under the Hebrew word the English word the NIV translators chose to put in the English version. For example, you may find the word Elohim translated as "He", for stylistic reasons. For the same reason, you may encounter the consecutive "vav" (and) translated as "but" or "however".
I don't see this as a fault, but as a challenge.
The Jay P. Green's The Interlinear Bible: Hebrew-Greek-English is so poorly printed, I don't advise anyone to purchase it. Even with magnifying glassed you will have a hard time reading it, because the characters are not just too tiny, they are deformed. On the bright side, the Green's Interlinear is literally translated, which might be a plus to some students.
I include myself among those who frown upon the NIV's choice of translation in many verses. But understanding their mindset, and not agreeing with it, I choose Kohlenber III's Interlinear over Green's because of its overall quality, the stylistic beauty not beeing the least.
For those who wish to have a better grasp of the bible Hebrew, this book is a must. Consider it a bicycle with side wheels. As soon as you learn a Hebrew word, its English equivalent will not be necessary any more. In no time soon, you will be reading more Hebrew than English.

Great experience

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on February 17, 2014

Although there are great free interliniar Bibles on the internet, I chose to work with a printed copy for several reasons, the most important being that it helps me keep track of what I read, and that I can make notes on the paper. It has a really big size, but it is still very easy to read and handle. Will be a bit confusing for those who have used other Hebrew Bibles, as this one opens as an ordinary Western book, just the writing is from right to left, obviously. Highly recommended for the Hebrew students.
