Mounce's Complete Expository Dictionary of Old and New Testament Words
William D. Mounce
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. This dictionary is searchable in English and does not require knowledge of the Hebrew or Greek alphabet.
