 The Great Escape May 12, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This phenominal book is an answer to many historical questions. I can finally visit the depth of countless hebrew originated biblical words and the pertinent history that is attached. Once I begin my daily studies I literally enter another world in which I can escape to as often as I desire.
Excellent resource April 7, 2008

The Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament is an excellent resource for those that desire to research the meanings of significant Hebrew words. It is very useful for those with little to no working knowledge of the Hebrew language. It is simple to use and provides great insight. For example, the word "bless" includes the idea "to endue with power for success, prosperity, fecundity, longevity, etc." (page 132)I turn to this volume almost every time I need to research the meaning of a Hebrew word. It is a great buy for the price.

it took three months to get here thanks to good ol' USPS but it was worth it because the books were very cheap and in excellent condition. Very good person to buy from.
 A perfect blend of dictionary and commentary. March 21, 2007
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
The Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament offers the perfect blend of dictionary and commentary. Words are grouped by root and derivations. Meanings are distilled from their Biblical contexts, and when these are few, brief excursions into cognate languages or extra-Biblical texts augment the articles. A grid of numerical codes ties into the perennial Strong index, which is also used in other works, for instance Green's Interlinear Bible (Hebrew-English). This allows a beginning student, who lacks knowledge of the Hebrew language, access to the wealth of grace and wisdom that is inherent to Scriptures but often lost in translations.
TWOTOT shows the combined effort of its 46 contributors plus editorial board, and is specifically designed for use by "the busy pastor or earnest Christian worker." This is to result "in the edification of the church of Christ through the assistance it may give to her ministers and His servants."
To anyone who desires to achieve a deeper understanding the Bible, this wordbook is invaluable.
Satisfied for About 20 Years Using this Set January 6, 2003
22 out of 23 found this review helpful
This is a great set. I got it about 20 years ago when it first came out, and, as a pastor of over 23 years, I say "Go for it!" Although I do not refer to this work every week, it comes in handy when I need to do a Hebrew word study. Because it is cross-indexed with Strongs, you can find the Hebrew words (and their definitions/expansions) without knowing a stitch of Hebrew.For practical ministry use, this is the set to get! It provides plenty of information, clear definitions, but does not get tedious (usually). I would recommend it over older studies which are not nearly as accurate (especially those done before the Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered in the 1940's).
