Excerpt from A Compendious and Complete Hebrew and Chaldee Lexicon to the Old Testament: With an English-Hebrew Index; Chiefly Founded on the Works of Gesenius and Furst, With Improvements From Dietrich and Other Sources Tms work may be regarded as new, though not claiming to be original. Experts will find on every page some fresh ness, indicating a measure of independence and of endeavour after progress, not however in a dogmatic but in a tentative spirit. The irregular and the harder. Forms of words will be found here placed in alphabetical order in'the body of the Lexicon, and not (as usual) put by themselves at the end. In explanation of these forms and also of many difficulties pertaining to the syntax, frequent and fitting references are made to the Student's Hebrew Grammar.
