Brown-driver-briggs Hebrew and English Lexicon- The
A trio of eminent Old Testament scholars--Francis Brown- R. Driver- and Charles Briggs--spent over twenty years researching- writing- and preparing "The Brown-Driver-Briggs Hebrew and English Lexicon." Since it first appeared in the early part of the twentieth century- BDB has been considered the finest and most comprehensive Hebrew lexicon available to the English-speaking student. Based upon the classic work of Wilhelm Gesenius- the "father of modern Hebrew lexicography-" BDB gives not only dictionary definitions for each word- but relates each word to its Old Testament usage and categorizes its nuances of meaning. BDB's exhaustive coverage of Old Testament Hebrew words- as well as its unparalleled usage of cognate languages and the wealth of background sources consulted and quoted- render BDB and invaluable resource for all students of the Bible.
