Reviewer's comments: "The most valuable tool for any serious Bible student. The Strongs Exhaustive Concordance is an excellent tool for any scholar of God's Word. Every word used in the King James 1611 Is numbered, giving you a fast and easy meaning of how a word is used in the Greek, Hebrew and Chaldee languages...Find out how exciting it is to study the Bible with this tool. It will make your study fun and educational. Dr. James Strong spent more than thirty-five years preparing this concordance. First published in 1890, this tool is still used today by pastors, scholars and laymen alike for nearly a century. If you are Christian or a skeptical linguist, I would "Strongly" recommend this concordance.
Philologos comments: Unless you read Hebrew and Greek every version of the Bible is just a translation which is very imprecise at times but with this book you can help bridge that gap. It's a classic and indispensable for doing word studies because you can see how each word is used throughout the Bible and find synonyms that sometimes make a world of difference when trying to understand a certain verse or phrase. Granted it is much faster to use an appropriate software package but if you'd like to unchain yourself from the computer (horrors!) and get mobile with your studies for a very small price, you can't do without this.
