Yes, it's an excellent set. The only problem is, it doesn't include all the
words in biblical
Hebrew so it's more of an exegetical dictionary than a reading one. I can
also recommend it,
but you'll need to supplement it with something like Holladay's lexicon
(which I use
constantly) for straight reading.
