The Koren Tanakh Maalot, Magerman Edition, Large print
(Hebrew and English Edition) This parallel version of the Hebrew Bible offers a brand new translation with explanatory notes scattered throughout.
An excellent choice for anyone wanting access to a scholarly work presented in a helpful format useful to seasoned Hebrew readers as well as those just starting out in learning the language. I highly encourage the "large print" edition, as the font size is still comparatively small to other "large print" examples. Anything less may be far too small for a majority of readers. |

Holy Bible The Peschito Syriac New Testament
by J.W. Etheridge A 19th century English translation using The Eastern Peshitta and Western Peshitto readings to present the New Testament as preserved from antiquity in the language of the Messiah himself. A very literally translated version of the text. It is also quite helpful to see subtle nuances from the Aramaic that are not always conveyed as clearly in the Greek-based versions.

Dictionary of the Targumim, Talmud Bavli, Talmud Yerushalmi and Midrashic Literature,
by Marcus Jastrow A work whose usefulness spans the breadth of Jewish religious texts, this dictionary is one of the most comprehensive in nature. Although not dealing specifically with Biblical terms, many entries do overlap with the vocabulary of Biblical Hebrew, allowing for the reader to view textual links similarly to the ancient Jewish commentators.

Lexicon to the Syriac New Testament,
by William Jennings This provides the student of New Testament Aramaic (Syriac according to Western academic parlance) with a very general and useful dictionary of terms found in the major texts. The entry script is Western Serto and not Estrangela, which is perhaps its biggest drawback, but it is not difficult to learn the differences and move between them with relative ease.

The Spice of Torah: Gematria,
by Gutman G. Locks Rather than a catalog of alpha-numeric Hebrew terms, this is of note for what it covers: It is the text of Torah arranged alphanumerically by to book, chapter, and verse. Each entry is presented in ascending numeric value as it appears in its in-text conjugated form, serving as a unique reference resource for finding identical terms or, with but a brief knowledge of spelling and gematria values, very similar terms.
