Review: Quality Lexicon for Translation! - Even though there are a great number of electronic language tools out there, sometimes it is nice to get away and do hands-on translation with a grammar and a lexicon. This lexicon is a fantastic abridgment of a much larger work. The newest edition has very nice glosses with a concise listing for each word. The word is given along with a number of examples of the different forms it may appear, greatly helping identification of either nouns or verbs. The primary meanings are also listed and in bold. The book is also arranged in alphabetical order according to the Hebrew, so just isolate the root and beginning letter, and you should be good to go. Overall, I highly recommend this lexicon for hands-on translation. Review: For Serious Biblical Hebrew Students -- Intermediate or Above - This is best reference for intermediate to advanced students of Hebrew who are actually interested in learning to read biblical Hebrew. Yes, you could use online tools to hover your mouse over the word you need, but you will not actually learn biblical Hebrew that way. If you are serious about learning Hebrew, you actually need to spend some time struggling through the lexicon and figure out the root of the word on your own. You will not learn to read the text by hovering your mouse over a web page or using a computer program. Holladay falls between the BDB and HALOT. For translation exercises and exams, I start with Holladay. I almost always find what I need. When the passage is particularly difficult or unclear, I'll crack open the BDB, which takes even more time to slog through. Again, using a computer program WILL NOT help you learn Hebrew: it convinces one that he or she is better than they actually are! (I found this out the hard way on an exam!) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #113,884 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #99 in Christian Bible Language Studies #111 in Hebrew Bible #321 in Old Testament Bible Study (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 367 Reviews | ## Images ![A Concise Hebrew and Aramaic Lexicon of the Old Testament (Eerdmans Language Resources (ELR)) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81DYljNPgkL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quality Lexicon for Translation! *by S***8 on November 10, 2014* Even though there are a great number of electronic language tools out there, sometimes it is nice to get away and do hands-on translation with a grammar and a lexicon.

(I found this out the hard way on an exam!) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Handy Little Guide *by D***R on December 14, 2010* I use HALOT and BDB on my computer software to do the heavy exegetical lifting, but it is nice to have this little one-volume lexicon on the shelf for looking up words when I don't have the software immediately available. Don't get this if you want a lexicon that provides comprehensive (or near comprehensive) citations of the occurrences of a word in the Bible. Holladay just provides a few examples of each category of use. Also, don't get it if you are looking for the work in the cognate languages provided by HALOT. While all the listings are in Hebrew script, some of the (secondary) meanings of words are headed by transliteration, so be sure you know both Hebrew script and the transliteration convention. Other than that, in a day of powerful software tools, it's nice to have this lexicon to do a quick look-up. ## Frequently Bought Together - A Concise Hebrew and Aramaic Lexicon of the Old Testament (Eerdmans Language Resources (ELR)) - Basics of Biblical Hebrew Grammar: Third Edition (Zondervan Language Basics Series) - Basics of Biblical Hebrew Workbook: Third Edition (Zondervan Language Basics Series) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/2715453-a-concise-hebrew-and-aramaic-lexicon-of-the-old-testament](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/2715453-a-concise-hebrew-and-aramaic-lexicon-of-the-old-testament) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-06-01*
