This multivolume work is still proving to be as fundamental to Old Testament studies as its companion set, the Kittel-Friedrich Theological Dictionary of the New Testament, has been to New Testament studies.

Beginning with 'ābh ('āb), "father," and continuing through the alphabet, the TDOT volumes present in-depth discussions of the key Hebrew and Aramaic words in the Old Testament. Leading scholars of various religious traditions (including Roman Catholic, Lutheran, Reformed, Anglican, Greek Orthodox, and Jewish) and from many parts of the world (Denmark, France, Germany, Great Britain, Greece, Israel, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United States) have been carefully selected for each article by editors Botterweck, Ringgren, and Fabry and their consultants, George W. Anderson, Henri Cazelles, David Noel Freedman, Shemaryahu Talmon, and Gerhard Wallis.

The intention of the writers is to concentrate on meaning, starting from the more general, everyday senses and building to an understanding of theologically significant concepts. To avoid artificially restricting the focus of the articles, TDOT considers under each keyword the larger groups of words that are related linguistically or semantically. The lexical work includes detailed surveys of a word's occurrences, not only in biblical material but also in other ancient Near Eastern writings. Sumerian, Akkadian, Egyptian, Ethiopic, Ugaritic, and Northwest Semitic sources are surveyed, among others, as well as the Qumran texts and the Septuagint; and in cultures where no cognate word exists, the authors often consider cognate ideas.

TDOT's emphasis, though, is on Hebrew terminology and on biblical usage. The contributors employ philology as well as form-critical and traditio-historical methods, with the aim of understanding the religious statements in the Old Testament. Extensive bibliographical information adds to the value of this reference work.

This English edition attempts to serve the needs of Old Testament students without the linguistic background of more advanced scholars; it does so, however, without sacrificing the needs of the latter. Ancient scripts (Hebrew, Greek, etc.) are regularly transliterated in a readable way, and meanings of foreign words are given in many cases where the meanings might be obvious to advanced scholars. Where the Hebrew text versification differs from that of English Bibles, the English verse appears in parentheses. Such features will help all earnest students of the Bible to avail themselves of the manifold theological insights contained in this monumental work.

The softest sheets ever! 💙
Color: 05 - Dusty Blue, Size: Queen, Color: 05 - Dusty Blue, Size: Queen
This sheets quality feels great! It feels a little heavy but comfortable. I love the way it just drops. It feels cool to the touch, and so so gently on my skin! I previous had gotten a 100% cotton sheets from this same brand and it feels soooo rough on my skin, but this one is great! Best money spent! Bamboo material! I'm never going back! I got the dusty blue, in the photo is looks gray because of light but I love the blue color, it looks great!

Comfy, cool
Color: 01 - Dark Grey, Size: Queen
This is my first time buying rayon/ bamboo sheets, and now I finally see what I've been missing. Very comfortable, soft, and feel really nice against the skin. Nice for this price point too. I took off one star because they do tend to wrinkle quickly, so I have to readjust them every night before going to bed. Also be aware that oil from your skin and hair products tend to stain them very quickly, and the stains are not easy to get out. But I'm ok with that as a trade-off for the comfort!

Queen. Grey. Beautiful. Nice snug fit. Feels like silk. Super comfortable, soft, almost buttery. And truly cooling fabric. The price point is a steal. I will be ordering these sheets in all the colors. P.S. these sheets also laundered beautifully. I’m very very pleased with this purchase.

Sheets
Color: 05 - Dusty Blue, Size: Full
Have been the best sheets I've bought, would totally spend the money again. They feel soft against your skin yet keep you cool and comfortable. Easily fits my extra thick mattress, only a little wrinkles during use. They offer some wonderful colors, went with a dusty blue and am completely satisfied with richness of color.

Exceptional quality and feel
Color: 12 - Light Beige, Size: Queen
I will be purchasing again from Bedsure. I purchased the light beige which is exactly what the color was, like a gentle note of almond to it. Perfect for my bedroom as my master bath has light beige full shower, toilet and sink. I washed them and dressed the bed. The sizing was spot on. My mattress does has a 3" Mike Lindell topper. I would suggest making sure you follow their sizing which I did not do mine just happened to fit and didn't have much to spare either because of the topper. The sheets feel wonderful to sleep on. They do feel cool on my skin and felt cool out of the package also. I do not believe you would be disappointed unless you just absolutely were in love with the sheets you are on. This set works beautifully for me and my skin loves the smooth texture of the material. I'll be a repeat buyer.
