Excluding BDAG, what would you consider the best Greek lexicon?
I like "The Complete Word Study Dictionary" by Spiros Zodhiates
For classical studies: Liddel and Scott
New Testament studies: Louw and Nida
LXX studies: Lust
For me, Lowe and Nida, hands down. I find it easy to use, concise definitions, and the way they break down definitions into the semantic range of a word really works for me. As a lexicon (not an encyclopedia) I think it is the best. I would prefer it to BDAG, though I always reference both. "If I could only have one..."
DBL Greek -- > Dictionary of Biblical Languages with Semantic Domains (organise meanings according to Louw-Nida domains). You can use Outline Formatting visual filter - if you have Logos 6 Bronze package or Feature Crossgrade, or higher - to vertically align the meanings for better clarity.
4 guys, 4 different answers. Thanks guys.

This is a great feature
Ohhhh... thanks so much for this tip! Now the DBL is much easier to use!
Try it with BDAG and you’ll be amazed even more!
