Long description
Since 1737 readers of all kinds have relied on "Cruden's Complete Concordance" to the "Old" and "New Testaments" as their guide to the "Bible". Its simple alphabetical arrangement and compact design make it easy to navigate the more than 225,000 entries. As well as listing verses that include each word treated, Cruden's quotes each passage briefly to provide an indication of context. When the sense is unclear, the word is defined and different meanings explained. So, whether you want to find all the places where 'write' is used or you need to know the varying senses of 'adoption', "Cruden's Concordance" is an invaluable study companion. The work has been frequently revised and corrected, and few comparable reference books can be as accurate and up-to-date. It is based on the Authorised Version, but also notes places where the Revised Version or American Revision has altered the text.
Review
It is a great tribute to the enduring excellence of Cruden's work that for over two hundred years his Concordance has been in use wherever the Christian Bible is read and that reprints and new editions have continued to be published. Expository Times There is no book, save the Bible itself, like it. It is a source of endless pleasure to any lover of words, a necessity to students and writers.
