This is an exhaustive concordance to the KJV Bible. Although Strong's seems to be the default standard in this category, there are a couple of things I like better here:

1. I find Young's handles proper nouns better

2. The indexing makes it easier to find the specific reference I am searching for. With Strong's I have to look by language: Hebrew or Greek. Here both are consolidated.

3. It was a buck cheaper.

As a concordance, Young's, in print since 1884, is well-done with the caveat that it is to the King James (or Authorized) version of the seventeenth century, a version which is relevant to literary studies, but not to biblical research owing to the many discoveries and advances in the field as well as to the substantial changes that have occurred in English since then.

I own the 1977 edition of the Concordance. An amazing piece of work.

Recommended first recourse in biblical scholarship - allows even the casual academic limited access to the meaning and original language of the texts.

[Pierre Lombard]

An excellent concordance for finding words in the Bible in their English, Hebrew and Greek forms, their frequencies and a part of the verses where they occur.

[Vickie Schafer]

Excellent reference

If you have a Young's Literal Translation (YLT) Bible you must needs this analytical concordance written specifically for the YLT so that as a diligent student of God's Word you can look up the Hebrew/Greek to be sure you have a better understanding of what is meant by the writer.

The meaning of words have a tendency to change and in addition to this, words translated into English may cover a multitude of words in the Hebrew/Greek (i.e. there are several different kinds of love mentioned in the New Testament. All of these have very different meanings and yet they are all translated as just the word "love").

Very helpful in finding meanings for biblical words.

[Dan Haley]

Excellent concordance.
