Ancient Hebrew Lexicon Of The Bible (Hardcover)

One of the major differences between the Modern Western mind and the Ancient Hebrew's is that their mind related all words and their meanings to a concrete concept. For instance, the Hebrew word "chai" is normally translated as "life", a western abstract meaning, but the original Hebrew concrete meaning of this word is the "stomach". In the Ancient Hebrew mind, a full stomach is a sign of a full "life". The Hebrew language is a root system oriented language and the lexicon is divided into sections reflecting this root system. Each word of the Hebrew Bible is grouped within its roots and is defined according to its original ancient cultural meaning.

Also included in each word entry are its alternative spellings, King James translations of the word and Strong's number.;Indexes are included to assist with finding a word within the lexicon according to its spelling, definition, King James translation or Strong's number.

Ancient Hebrew Lexicon of the Bible (Hardcover) by Jeff A. Benner

Mon, 3 Dec 2018 | Review by: Gary P.

This is an absolutely brilliant Lexicon. It enables any person, who has a disciplined commitment in studying Biblical Hebrew, to chart and reconstruct the morphological parent and child root trees within the Hebrew Verbal System; tracing them back to their fundamental and original meanings.The spine binding of this book is exceptionally solid. It takes me back to the days when books were made to endure through the generations. This product is a must for anyone who has a dedicated interest in the mechanical translation of the Torah and Biblical Hebrew in general. It shows the thought of the ancient Hebrew mind revealed in the original cultural context and linguistics of the Ancient Hebrew language. Once again Loot has obtained it at prices well below the competing merchants. This book is worth every cent paid for it. Well done to Loot, well done !
