I want to find out what the best lexicon most scholars would use for Hebrew to English definitons?
HALOT.
And if you have BDAG, buying the BDAG/HALOT is often cheaper than just HALOT.
Most scholars that can afford it 😂
For low budget scholars there's also a concise version that is not too expensive right? And there is also NIDOTTE. And there is the BDB. What do the scholars say about those?
Over the years HALOT vs LittleHALOT have come up. It seems to me, if one were not all that enthused about Hebrew (or Greek), concise versions are fine. But if one saw more exploration in the future, the concise ones just delay the best purchase, and waste money.
NIDOTTE is a different animal. Once one says 'theological', then the choices change dramatically.
Below (for anyone) are comparisons. HALOT on the right (concise and full); BDB and DCH on the left.
