If you don't own/use a full reference size concordance currently, please read this. I didn't own or use one of these until I was in my 40's. Big mistake! As another reviewer suggested, you should buy one of these right after you purchase your Bible. Incorporating a comprehensive concordance into your bible study will revolutionize the whole experience for you. If you don't own one of these, buy one.Functions: In its most basic usage, the concordance allows you to select any word in your Bible, and see what that original word was in Hebrew or Greek, and what it means in that language. Another basic function, the concordance will allow you to select a word and locate every place in the Bible where that word is used. Very handy for locating a chapter/verse that you can't fully recall. For example by looking up "begotten", or "world", or "loved" . . . you could quickly find John 3:16 (I usually use a palm-sized Franklin Electronic Bible for this purpose). There are myriad other things you can do with a concordance as you become familiar with it.An important idea in my opinion --- as it is stated within Scripture that they were given by inspiration of God, thus, it is widely held that they are without error (when this statement was penned by the Apostle Paul, he was directly referring to the Hebrew scriptures, or, "Old Testament"). However, would you believe that ALL (including the KJV) English translations contain erroneous, or just sometimes ambiguous or weak, word translations? There are a variety of reasons for this and the mistakes or weaknesses were not necessarily inserted with evil intent.
