Disappointing

Although the syllable breakdowns are slightly helpful, there are no phonetic guides or marks to indicate whether a vowel is long or short or whether a consonant is hard or soft. Is Abiezer pronounced with an A like in fab and an I like two Es (Ab-ee-ezer), or with an A like in father and an I like in it (Ah-bih-ezer)? Or something else? Can't tell. Because it's written "Abiezer [A·bi·e′ zer]," which is just about useless. The whole book is like that. So good luck figuring out Phrygia or Hazar-susah or any of those names in Nehemiah.

A good reference tool following a scripture reading or sermon from which you want to learn more about the people referenced.
