Great Resouce if it's right for you October 15, 2007
David Kilpatrick (North Syracuse, NY)
I recently inherited this whole set and am enjoying it very much. If you are an Old Testament teacher at the college or seminary level, I don't know how you'd get by without this. However, if you are a pastor, even the so-called pastor/scholar, I'm not so sure this is a great choice (unless you have lots of money and time). There are other great resources out there like 1) the 3 volume Theological Lexicon of the Old Testament, 2) the 5 volume New International Dictionary of Old Testament Theology and Exegesis, and 3) the 2 volume (now bound in a single volume) Theological Wordbook of the Bible. If you have those three sets, you wouldn't need this. This volume goes into great depth on etymology and cognates (i.e., similar words in Akkadian, Ugaritic, Arabic, etc), and there's a lot of stuff in there does not provide much insight into the word meanings of the Old Testament.
Given that the most appropriate audience for this series is the OT scholar or professor, I find it very odd that they use transliteration and do not use Hebrew script except in the title heading for the words and in the Table of Contents (click the "Look Inside" button above).
Despite this, I'd say if you are an OT professor or OT scholar and don't have this yet, do what you can to get this set! I love it! (Then again, I didn't have to pay for it!).
