Summary: Extremely helpful in understanding the Bible
Comment: While the Word of God is divinely inspired, (Paul writes that all scripture is given by inspiration of the Holy Spirit, and I firmly believe this), sometimes the modern translations loose the impact of the original Greek writing.
The New Testament has 4 seperate and distinct words that our English translations generically call "love". This shows us that when the scriptures are examined in the original meaning and context, they become even more powerful and instructive.
Vine's does an excellent job of providing the context of the word you are looking up, providing a thorough understanding of the exact meaning of the verse. This kind of knowledge will add power to your preaching, teaching, or personal study. I have found that doors to deeper understanding have been opened by seeing the information that this edition of Vine's provides. When used in concert with Strong's concordance, it is a powerful tool.
I heartily endorse this book. It should be used by every believer to discover for themselves the deeper things of God.

Summary: Accessible foundation
Comment: This is a classic, essential reference, right there with Strong's, and with good reason. If you don't have an expository dictionary of Bible words from the original languages, then you should start with this one. Some terms are discussed in depth, others more sparsely, but it gives you a good feel for the meaning of important terms.
As you become more comfortable with examining the meanings of the original Hebrew or Greek words, you may find yourself wanting more, and so there are other, more in-depth dictionaries available. But this is quite accessible and an excellent starting point. Vine's is also fairly denomination-neutral, being careful not to expound too much on opinion, but sticking to the business of objectively defining the word.
If you're looking for an expository dictionary and don't have one, this is the place to start.

Summary: Great in Greek, Par in Hebrew
Comment: Vine's is a superb addition for any Bible student to have in their library. It is great in giving a brief and quick definition of the Greek and it basically sticks with Koine Greek instead of falling into the Classical Greek traps that have befallen other authors. It fails in being as useful for OT words, though. It is far from exhaustive in Hebrew definitions and another book should be consulted for this. I chose the Theological Wordbook of the OT, which gives longer definitions than necessary for most students, but is very well written.
