No idea why Zondervan published such resource. Not their usual 'bells and whistles practical and clear option'. The "extras" (paleo-hebrew rare citations; extra-biblical quotes) are mere curiosities, ate best. The 'lexicon' part is very limited. The presentation, supposed to be clear and new, is confusing. Verbs parse from 1cs to 3cp instead of 3ms onward, which I don't like. The "complete overview of the term"; "examples from the Bible" etc is ridiculous. Any dictionary has more examples, a complete range of forms and meanings in other passages, while this has a gloss, one passage and (sometimes) one example from extra-biblical fonts. It's far from the best 'simple gloss' reference (even those with 'strong numbers' are better), much less a 'complete overview'. Zondervan (when Prof. Van Pelt is involved, I guess) usually make some pretty useful resources. When they are not as complete as others, they offer extras, readability, combination of materials etc. This one tries to do that, but fails miserably. Especially when any lexicon offers way more information in all fronts. All in all, you can find better content on practically any dictionary. Especially on Logos. First time I asked for a refund. Unless you don't have other dictionaries of Hebrew, and think you need a (not that) clear presentation so you don't get lost while you are learning, give it a hard pass and go for real lexicons.
