They were bound together with Strong's Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible.Beautiful Greek, Hebrew in This E-BookThis digital edition of Strong's classic work is distinctive in not only presenting the Greek and Hebrew/Aramaic in their respective scripts but doing so using in an aesthetically pleasing manner that looks great on the Kindle.

Note that navigation details might be different in the various Kindle applications for platforms other than the Kindle itself.First, when you click on Go to in the menu, you have the option of selecting Table of Contents. This Table of Contents provides hyperlinks to each letter of the dictionary, first for Hebrew and then for Greek, along with the range of Strong's numbers for that letter. Clicking on a link to a letter provides a list of options for the first two letters of the word as well as the range of Strong's numbers for that letter combination. Once you click on the desired two-letter combination, you can flip the page to get to the desired entry if need be.Second, when you are reading, clicking the 5-way controller to the right will advance you to the hyperlinked list for the next letter of the alphabet. Clicking the 5-way controller to the left does similarly.Third, you can navigate directly to a particular glossary entry by clicking on Index in the menu and typing in the letter "g" followed by the Strong's number for that entry for Greek, or "h" followed by the Strong's number for that entry for Hebrew. For example, to navigate to the entry for Strong's Hebrew #1234, simply type "h1234" into the text box and hit enter. To navigate to the entry for Strong's Greek #1234, simply type "g1234" into the text box and hit enter. This option is not available on first generation Kindles and might not be available on Kindle applications.Fourth, you can navigate directly to a particular glossary entry by clicking on Index in the menu and typing in the word in transliteration, preceded by "g " for Greek and "h " for Hebrew/Aramaic. For Greek, use the same SBL transliteration scheme used in this book, leaving off any diacritics and using all lower-case. For example, to navigate to the entry for Strong's #124, Aígyptos, simply type "g aigyptos" in the text box and hit enter.

The Book of Jotham


Arthur Powers - 2013
    Yet the other apostles—the dedicated Mary, Peter, Thomas, and the rest—while they care for Jotham and look out for him, don’t understand why Jesus loves him so. Thomas even says, after Jesus offers a parable, “I don’t see why all the pots can’t be strong and beautiful.”Jotham may be different, but through him, we come to see Jesus and Jotham not just with our eyes, but also with our hearts.
