Overview

This Aramaic volume of the Dictionary of Biblical Languages with Semantic Domains (DBL) provides a comprehensive resource for the student of Biblical Aramaic. The text is ordered by GK (Goodrick-Kohlenberger) numbers, and most definitions are also categorized by semantic domain according to the numbering system set forth in the Louw-Nida Lexicon (also available for the Libronix Digital Library System). This Aramaic volume of the DBL serves as a much-needed companion to the Hebrew volume of the DBL, providing numerous links back to the Hebrew volume of the DBL for comparison and study.
