References to other scholarly sources are provided in those cases where the current understanding of the word's use is attributable to that source. Lists of abbreviations and cited literature are included. As this is a dictionary, there is no index. Muraoka, a senior Biblical scholar beyond compare, teaches at Leiden U. in the Netherlands.
