Modern scholarship makes this the Vine's for the twenty-first century. For years, Vine's Expository Dictionary has been the standard word study tool for pastors and lay people, selling millions of copies. But sixty-plus years of scholarship have shed extensive new light on the use of biblical Greek and Hebrew, creating the need for a new, more accurate, more thorough dictionary of Bible words. William Mounce, whose Greek grammar has been used by more than 100,000 college and seminary students, is the editor of this new dictionary, which will become the layperson's gold standard for biblical word studies. Mounce's is ideal for the reader with limited or no knowledge of Greek or Hebrew, but who wants greater insight into the meaning of biblical words to enhance Bible study. It is also the perfect reference for busy pastors needing to quickly get at the heart of a word's meaning without wading through more technical studies.… (more)

For the most part, this is a fantastic resource! I have noticed that there are some words that link to nonexistent words, though, which adds a bit of frustration if this is the only dictionary you have. While I cannot remember all the times (not a ton, but probably two or three) that it has said, "see .....", I've went to see ..... and ..... wasn't in the dictionary, I was smart enough to jot down one note in the front of the dictionary: "Compassion, on pg 124, references Mark 1:31, but should be Mark 1:41."

That's a minor issue, and I haven't read the entire dictionary so that could very well be the only scriptural mess-up. If I find those places where a word is referenced but not actually listed, I'll post those as well.

Again, excellent book overall, but the few errors in it stand out and can be annoying sometimes. ( )

Replaces Vine's as the exegetical standard dictionary. Vine's is still valuable though rather dated, but Mounce's is better. ( )
