This review is for the Kindle ebook Strong's Greek dictionary. My critique applies equally to the Kindle Strong's Hebrew Dictionary.As advertised the print in this ebook and the navigation features are "superior".That isn't the problem. This is: Unless you already know the Greek (or Hebrew one as the case may be) word you want to look up, or at least its Strong's number, you can't use this dictionary. If you are using a non-koine Greek Bible (that is, one in English), unless the words in it are keyed to Strong's numbers, there is no front end translation into Greek in this dictionary.Lets say you want to look up the English word "beginning". Unless you know that the koine Greek word is "arche" (Strong 746), you can't look it up in this dictionary.I have a print Strong's Dictionary that lists all the words in the NT & OT alphabetically in English at the front with their translation into Greek and/or Hebrew with the relevant Strong's numbers. Much more useful!BTW, before anyone calls me up on this: In these Kindle dictionaries, once you find the Greek (or Hebrew) word and look it up, they DO give you the English translation and the definition is in English, of course.What you can't do is start out with an English (or non-Greek or non-Hebrew) word and find the definition here.
