Guthrie is a portable and affordable dictionary that provides concise, contextualized meanings for every word in the Greek New Testament. It incorporates the best of the latest scholarship, and is ideal for the student and pastor.Designed for dynamic engagement with the meanings of Greek words, the Lexicon employs a consistent scheme that shades each distinctive part of every word. Each entry also includes a total occurrence count for the Greek New Testament. Noun entries include their genitive form with their appropriate article and declension. Words occurring four times or less include every biblical reference for those occurrences, and words occurring more than four times will offer representative biblical references. All definitions are contextually driven, but when a word's definition requires extended treatment due to lexicographical uncertainty or scholarly debate, a superscripted reference is included.Finally, the Lexicon identifies and treats irregular verbs in the Greek New Testament, helping students of all levels recognize verbal forms whose form is virtually identifiable within its original context.

You need the Zondervan Dictionary of Bible and Theology Words. This hugely practical volume puts the definitions you need most right at your fingertips.

Zondervan Dictionary of Biblical Imagery
by John A. BeckLearning the meaning and significance of biblical images will revolutionize your grasp of the Bible as a whole. Scripture is packed with symbolic imagery and metaphors: looms, donkeys, water cisterns, grapes, sackcloth—all carry symbolic or emotional weight that sharpens the broader picture of the passage.The biblical authors used their reality to enhance the impact of their message on the audience around them, and the language they used is rich with meaning. The words might be familiar today, but the cultural connotations of things like manna, millstones, or myrrh might be missed by contemporary Christians and might cause us to lose the fullest significance of the Bible passage.The Zondervan Dictionary of Biblical Imagery surveys the use and connotations of familiar images in the Bible to illustrate the intricate and subtle ways they're put to work in the text. The types of entries include:Cultural artifacts from the biblical world (such as arrow or sandal)Components of natural history (such as fox or fig tree)Named places (such as Mount Sinai or Nazareth)Components of Israel's physical geography (such as mountain or wilderness)Each entry describes an image's characteristics, appearance, intended use, and cultural connotations, as well as the rhetorical impact of its use in the Bible. As you read, you'll begin to understand things like why Jesus called for us to become the salt of the earth, why dew was a controversial topic in Bible times, and why a roof might be mentioned to draw attention to a violation of expected norms.With accessible, well-illustrated entries and numerous black & white visuals, The Zondervan Dictionary of Biblical Imagery is an inspiring portal into the biblical world for any student of the Bible.
