Editing Strong's Concordance (section)

==Strong's dictionaries==
In the 1890 version, Strong added a "[[Hebrew language|Hebrew]] and [[Chaldee language (misnomer)|Chaldee]] Dictionary" and a "Greek Dictionary of the New Testament" to his concordance. In the preface to both dictionaries, Strong explains that these are "brief and simple" dictionaries, not meant to replace reference to "a more copious and elaborate Lexicon." He mentions [[Wilhelm Gesenius|Gesenius]] and [[Bible concordance#Hebrew|Fürst]] as examples of the lexicons that ''Strong's'' is drawn from. His dictionaries were meant to give students a quick and simple way to look up words and have a general idea of their meaning.
