Combining the two most popular word study tools into one manageable volume, this multi-purpose Bible language reference contains all the essentials you need to study the biblical text without having to know Hebrew or Greek. Provides definition, explanation, and concordance entries. In a manageable size and readable text, this book is neatly split in its two components: The New Strong's Concise Concordance: Built from The New Strong's Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible. Groups together variant spellings of proper names, allowing the concordance to be used with all modern translations-not just the King James. Eliminates some common words that are not likely to be used in searching for a particular passage. Condenses some heavily used words by attaching to them the most important passages, enabling the user to quickly find specific verses. Vine's Concise Dictionary of the Bible: A condensed combination of W. E. Vine's Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words and Nelson's Expository Dictionary of the Old Testament. Organized alphabetically by English words that represent the key vocabulary of biblical theology. Includes many other terms of interpretive importance that may be rich in cultural significance or otherwise obscure to modern readers. Each article contains the part of speech, the transliteration, the Strong's number for easy cross-indexing, and a concise and expository definition of the word or term. Dependable information in a clear presentation, this Concise edition of two classic Bible study resources is designed to better serve the needs of the standard user-from those in or preparing for ministry, to anyone interested in getting to know Scripture better.

Ambrosiaster ("Star of Ambrose") is the name given to the anonymous author of the earliest complete Latin commentary on the thirteen epistles of Paul. The commentaries were thought to have been written by Ambrose throughout the Middle Ages, but their authorship was challenged by Erasmus, whose arguments have proved decisive. The commentaries, which serve as important witnesses to pre-Vulgate Latin versions of Paul's epistles, are noteworthy in several respects. Ambrosiaster was a careful and thoughtful interpreter, who made little use of allegory, though he employed typology judiciously. Writing during the pontificate of Damasus (366-384), he is a witness to Nicene orthodoxy and frequently comments on themes related to the Trinity, the consubstantiality of the Son, the problem of the unbelief of the Jews and the nature of human sinfulness. He had a keen eye for moral issues and often offers comments that reflect his knowledge of how the church had changed from the time of the apostles to his own day. Here for the first time his commentaries on Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, 1-2 Thessalonians, 1-2 Timothy, Titus and Philemon are made available in English, ably translated and edited by Gerald L. Bray.
