Few reference works have achieved the enduring authority of The Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible, a monumental scholarly achievement that remains the gold standard for biblical study more than a century after its first publication in 1890. Compiled by James Strong, S.T.D., LL.D., a professor of exegetical theology at Drew Theological Seminary, this comprehensive volume catalogues every single word of the King James Version of the Bible, recording each occurrence in its canonical order — an undertaking of staggering intellectual ambition and meticulous precision. Beyond its role as a concordance, Strong's work pairs seamlessly with two original-language dictionaries — one for Hebrew and Aramaic, one for Greek — assigning a unique numbering system (now universally known as Strong's Numbers) to every word of the biblical text. This system revolutionised lay biblical scholarship, granting readers without formal seminary training direct access to the linguistic roots of Scripture. A cornerstone of theological libraries worldwide, this edition published by Riverside Book and Bible House of Iowa Falls, Iowa, presents one of the most indispensable tools ever produced for serious students of the Word — one that continues to underpin biblical commentaries, lexicons, and sermons to this very day.
