My dictionary is clearly geared to someone wanting to read the Hebrew Bible, not to an immigrant or tourist in modern day Israel.
I don't know when or where I bought my copy, but what's odd/interesting is that there is no date anywhere that I could find. Printing date, copyright.. nothing.
It's the simple meaning. Timeless!
I wish more books were made with these thick, vinyl/flexi/plastic covers. I've got some other [mini] L dictionaries that are dated from the mid-80s. Indestructible.
