Bible Dictionary. The ‘bridge’ element in the title reflects the aim of all Bridgeway books, which is to bridge two gaps at once – the gap between the word of the Bible and the world of today, and the gap between the technical reference works and the ordinary reader. God’s Word gives meaning to life, but only if peop le read and obey it.

HEN_Expository Dict.f Coded to the Revised Strong’s Numbering System EXPOSITORY DICTIONARY OF BIBLE WORDS Word Studies for Key English Bible Words Based on the Hebrew and Greek Texts
This dictionary is designed as a non-technical reference book for pastors, teachers, and lay students of Scripture. It offers a comprehensive (though not exhaustive) analysis and discussion of both Old Testament Hebrew (and Aramaic) and New Testament Greek terms. While there are a number of excellent Old and New Testament dictionaries on the mar-ke...
In common with normal practice in “non-technical” works, all Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek terms have been transliterated, using essentially a simplified phonetic transliteration scheme.

The Hebrew consonants alef ( ) and ayin (() have no counterpart in English or other western alphabets, and so are represented in English by an apostrophe (’). The Hebrew let-ter khet (x) is pronounced as a rough “ch” as in the German word “Achtung.”
ix Most Hebrew vowels do not have a letter form. Instead they are indicated by “point-ing”—small markings placed underneath or after a consonant. There are, however, a few Hebrew letters, he (h), vav (w), and yod (y), which can function as either consonants or as vowels, similar to the English use of the letter y. The shewa (: ) is not a vowel, and...
Aramaic is a Semitic language closely related to Hebrew. (Strong’s Concordance refers to it as Chaldee.) Parts of the books Daniel and Ezra, as well as a few phrases in Genesis and Jeremiah, were written in Aramaic, and individual Aramaic terms can be found in both the Old and New Testament. Aramaic uses the same alphabet script as Hebrew, and for ...

A word or words used in English translations of Scripture.
A separate entry is given for each Hebrew or Greek word that can be translated with the English word(s) listed in the Main Entry.
A unique feature of this dictionary, the Additional Notes explain how the theme, concept, or doctrine shaped by the Hebrew terminology is fulfilled in the Greek vocabulary of the New Testament, especially in relation to the consummation of God’s plan of salvation through the person of Christ.

Once again these terms refer to both human and di-vine anger. q¢¥aph indicates the former on ten . . .
The noun orgÇ occurs around forty times in a vari-ety of contexts, meaning “anger,” “wrath” throughout.
The verb orgizÆ is found eight times with the . . .
Given the number of synonyms for “anger” in the New Testament, it is impossible to precisely identify any one of them as a dynamic equivalent for any of the corresponding Old Testament terms. There is, how-ever, a significant overlap between the two groups of words. For example, the major New Testament terms for “anger”also preserve the distinction...

bdelyktos is a rare adjective describing the deeds of false teachers as “abominable” or “detestable.”
There is a consistent pattern of meaning among the Old and New Testament usage of tô’Çb¢h and bdelygma. Both words emphasize idolatry and blas-phemy as the fundamental catalysts for the outpouring of divine wrath. With bdelygma in the New Testament, this is true whether one is speaking of the offensive al-tar of the antichrist or the metaphorical r...
Although there is no direct dynamic equivalent for either n¢gash or q¢rab in the New Testament, the use of prosagÆgÇ indicates a similarity of thought. The New Testament term makes it clear that access to the Father is only made possible through the person and work of Christ. It is that reality to which the old cove-nant system of worship points.
There is a high degree of correlation between the meanings of the three Greek terms, teleÆ, teleioÆ, and plÇroÆ (‚ FINISH ‚ FULFILL), and those of the He- brew m¢lÇ’ and k¢l¢h. It is not possible, however, to consider any one of these Greek terms as a precise equivalent of the Hebrew. Rather, the Old and New Testaments consistently affirm the idea ...
