Cruden's Complete Concordance to the Old and New Testaments

Almost every word of the whole Bible arranged alphabetically. An amazing tool for the discovery of misquotation and mis-citation, a surprisingly wide-spread practice.
Associations also become apparent, such as the fig tree with political Israel, gold with evil, wisdom with grace, or the oak tree with death. At a glance it is apparent that "Wilderness" is uncultivated land ranging from desert to overgrown, and from where Moses led the exodial people to a place where one is alone. Often a place of suffering, but also theophanies. Hagar is exiled to the Wilderness of Beersheba, but after Not-Sacrificing Isaac, Abraham returned together with his young men and "dwelled" at Beersheba. Leaving Sarah to die alone at Kirjatharba never having show more seen her son again. All this from the Concordance! show less

Does the job. I picked it up at a used book store for a few bucks and it's certainly worth that--a concordance makes Bible study much easier, especially if you're reading is self-directed and non-devotional.

If you're old (I am) you'll want to grab a magnifying glass at the same time--the print is small.

A concordance was an invaluable tool before computer searches and Bible software. Even without original Hebrew/Greek meanings, Cruden's is a good one.
Imagine listing every word of the Bible pre-computer!! Has anyone ever done that for Shakespeare?
My volume was my grandfather's, used constantly, in spite of the miniscule print!

It lists every word in the Bible, but this means every word in the English translation of the Bible and not the original language(s). I'm hoping the Internet does this but for Hebrew. If not, there's always DavkaWriter.

Cruden's concordance is adequate, but not as good as others. Young's is still my number one bet.

This concordance is easy to use since the word headings are further subdivided according to usage.

Before you could google it, this was the reference book for the Bible. A massive work and eternally fascinating.
