The Hebrew and Aramaic Lexicon of the Old Testament, vols 1-4
This resource in not available for separate purchase but is a component of the Hebrew and Aramaic Lexicon of the Old Testament | HAL/HALOT (5 vols.) collection.
Overview
The first volume of the English version of this classic reference tool for Bible scholars was published in 1994, and the subsequent publication of the other volumes has made it the standard modern English dictionary for Biblical Hebrew. It is based on the third edition of the Lexicon of Ludwig Koehler and Walter Baumgartner, which has been widely acclaimed as the most up-to-date complete dictionary for the Old Testament and related literature. This complete and unabridged translation has been prepared by Richardson with the co-operation of an international team of Hebrew and Old Testament scholars. Some slight modifications have been introduced to make it more useful to readers in the English speaking world.
