Beginning with 'father' and continuing through the alphabet, the Theological Dictionary of the Old Testament (TDOT) volumes represent in-depth discussions of key Hebrew and Aramaic words in the Old Testament. Leading scholars of various traditions and from many parts of the world have been carefully selected for each article. 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. This volume covers gillulim ('idols') through haras ('tear down, destroy'). |
