About the Book

Presenting the Vine's of the 21st century!

No knowledge of Greek required. Perfect for busy pastors and anyone who wants to better understand God's Word.

Book Synopsis

For years, Vine's Expository Dictionary has been the standard word study tool for pastors and laypeople, selling millions of copies. But sixty-plus years of scholarship have shed extensive new light on the use of biblical Greek and Hebrew, creating the need for a new, more accurate, more thorough dictionary of Bible words. William Mounce, whose Greek grammar has been used by more than 100,000 college and seminary students, is the editor of this new dictionary, which will become the layperson's gold standard for biblical word studies. Mounce's is ideal for the reader with limited or no knowledge of Greek or Hebrew who wants greater insight into the meanings of biblical words to enhance Bible study. It is also the perfect reference for busy pastors needing to quickly get at the heart of a word's meaning without wading through more technical studies.

What makes Mounce's superior to Vine's?

• The most accurate, in-depth definitions based on the best of modern evangelical scholarship
• Both Greek and Hebrew words are found under each English entry (Vine's separates them)
• Employs both Strong's and G/K numbering systems (Vine's only uses Strong's)
• Mounce's accuracy is endorsed by leading scholars

Review Quotes

'5 stars!....Ideal for church leaders who want to do careful, word-by-word Bible studies but have never learned Greek or Hebrew. You'll be able to look up terms in English, find their Greek or Hebrew equivalents, and get added insight into what the word really meant in its original context.--Rick Warren's Ministry Toolbox
