Product Description
The Complete 5-Volume Set on CD-ROM . . . Now Powered by Pradis
What its internationally acclaimed cousin, the New International Dictionary of New Testament Theology, is to the New Testament, the New International Dictionary of Old Testament Theology and Exegesis (NIDOTTE) is to the Old Testament. Drawing on the diligence and expertise of more than 200 contributors from over 100 academic institutions in 24 countries, NIDOTTE is a triumph of modern scholarship. It is indispensable for pastors, students, scholars, and anyone who wants to grasp the full riches of the Bible through a better understanding of Old Testament words and theological concepts.
No Need to Know Hebrew or Aramaic
Whether you’re a specialist or not, you’ll gain a nuanced understanding of words and concepts in the context of the Ancient Near East and the Old Testament. You’ll also better understand their relationship to words in the New Testament.
NIDOTTE features available with Pradis include:
•Guide to Old Testament Theology and Exegesis—Eleven essays supply an overview of biblical hermeneutics and interpretation and provide guidelines for using NIDOTTE in interpreting and exegeting the Old Testament.
•Lexical Dictionary—Contains over 3,000 Hebrew words with thorough information on each word.
•Topical Dictionary—Unlocks the theology of each Old Testament book and describes biblical concepts, people, places, events, and literary pieces.
•Search assistant
•Note-taking and bookmarking for book, chapter, verse, topic, or subtopic
•Customization—options for text, background colors, font, and point size
Easy-to-use Pradis interface is:
•Transparent—Sort by Hebrew/Aramaic, English, or both combined.
•User-Driven—In the footnotes, choose how you want to view the Hebrew/Aramaic text (true, full, or simple transliteration).
•Powerful—Search the dictionary for Hebrew/Aramaic words.
•Intuitive—Never lose a window! Tabbed and tiled window panes keep all your resources in view.
•Flexible—Many features are easy to use because they’re designed like programs you frequently use. For example, navigate by using a context tree or the “go to” dialog box.
Expand the scope and speed of your Bible studies even more!

Buy the original books, skip the poorly designed, hard-to-use software. October 18, 2005
13 out of 13 found this review helpful
The NIDOTTE BOOK set is wonderful! Compact, infinitely user-friendly, accessible in every way, and head-and-shoulders above every other Hebrew/Theological dictionary for the Hebrew Bible for beginning and intermediate students. However, this particular SOFTWARE has some built in, severely limiting "gotcha's" that will throw average users off and even make it unusable. Zondervan offers an all-important "patch" on their web site, but it involves a 6-7 step do-it-yourself method in which you have to "open the hood" of Windows more than average users will feel comfortable doing. And even then, for this user, it still didn't work. By "didn't work", I mean that the all important "search" function simply doesn't work! It produces endless loops of error messages. The result is...a clunker...and for something that is billed as "version 5.1", it is a very surprising clunker. My advice is to stick to the multi-volume book set until these people figure out how to build software that doesn't come with built-in bugs!
