The Lexham Bible Dictionary is an excellent and up-to-date resource that costs nothing. It’s included in the free version of Logos Bible software. The entry on the Nephilim is extensive. The whole dictionary is 4.5 million words. (By comparison the 6-volume Anchor Yale Bible Dictionary has 7 million words.)

Thanks for that! As a Logos user that is a helpful reminder. At sometime in the future I intend to look at Logos but in the main I am talking about physical books. God bless you and thank you for your helpful comment

I’ve enjoyed several of the Bakers reference books.

Agree. In general they do set a very high bar and very rarely disappoint. Blessings!

@@pastorslibrary I should've been more specific. I was wondering more to the point of how these dictionaries update with new info. I haven't been able to see if the Vines updates at all. It was just one of those things that was pushed hard when I was a young boy. Love your videos brother! Keep up the good work!

Which one is the most accurate? The standard by which all other Bibles should be measured. We are tolf the text is perfect and infallible. The inerrant God-inspired Word. Well, which one is it?

The original language is the accurate one. Translating around 3000 Greek words into so many. English ones in what is a very fluid language will always make it impossible to have a perfect translation . Not the KJV, not the NIV, none of them are perfect but thank God for the teams of men and women continuingly working on improving what we have. Bless you!

The great book by Gordon Fee "How to choose a translation for all its worth" is the go to book to explain.

Is it the case that if you study the closest one and learn the points where lets say the language is cloudy, then you will be closer to the truth?@@pastorslibrary

@@robertkauffman8137 I suppose what I am saying is that there isn't a closet one. The NRSV is the one favoured by academics as being the most acceptable. The NiV (2011) is high up on the list though as is the NET. I would say read them all and you are more likely to get a sense of what the Greek is saying
