Resource: HALOT (Hebrew and Aramaic Lexicon of the Old Testament)

Key Features

• Per general consensus on the forum, this is the ‘gold standard’, in working with the OT hebrew
• For comparison, the ‘Concise’ version is also shown below. Although the ‘Concise’ is more affordable, the full version is almost always the better choice, if funds are available.
• Logos offers a combo HALOT/BDAG, which combines the best hebrew and greek lexicons
• Note that HALOT doesn’t include full coverage for the Targums (see the Targum Lexicon with CAL)
• Also note that the aramaic portion of HALOT is in ‘Volume 5’, a separate resource indexed by the aramaic headwords
