IMPORTANT: Easton's Bible Dictionary is NOT exegetical, and can be counter to the scriptural or Hebrew and Greek definitions of words.
150 Years ago you couldn't be a Pastor anywhere in the world unless you were fluent in Hebrew..... Even in the so-called "Dark Ages" everyone had a local Priest who could speak, read and write in at least 2 languages, who taught out of a Latin Bible. How far have we fallen in word definitions! DO YOU BELIEVE THE WORD OF GOD OR BELIEVE IN THE OPPOSITE? *******Recommended Materials for In-Depth Research of Scripture********* Strong's Exhaustive Concordance, Complete and Unabridged (Every pastor uses or recommends this for their congregation) It's the main tool every Christian should have in their library along with a good Lexicon to get full definitions. Beware, using just Strong's alone without a Lexicon will not give you full definitions of many words since it's not meant to do the function of a Lexicon. You will need some of the following books to render in-depth research beyond the scope of Strong's Concordance: (Most of which are included in several computer programs such as PC Study Bible and online at HERE for FREE ACCESS) 1. The New Englishman's Greek Concordance and Lexicon of the New Testament, by Wigram-Green *These two books by Wigram-Green are what Strong's concordance is based upon. Every word in the bible is listed by (the original Greek and Hebrew)Strongs# rather than by English translation. You cannot miss the bible's definition of a word with this tool. You can see how the original word is used every time throughout the bible. This research tool makes any user blow away most any pastor these days.* 2. The New Englishman's Hebrew Concordance of the Old Testament, by Wigram-Green 3. Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament by Thayers 4. Hebrew-Chaldee Lexicon to the Old Testament by Gesenius 5. Interlinear Greek and English by Berry 6. Young's Analytical Concordance to the Bible 7. Vine's Expository Dictionary of Old and New Testament Words Keyed to Strong's Reference Numbers You can also order the KJV "Hebrew Greek Key Study bible" which has built-in lexicons and Strong's numbering within the actual text of King James, or if you prefer you can also get it in New American Standard. (we reccomend King James Version) We know you can always use the bible as it's own lexicon and use the word to interpret the word, however, but these are shortcuts for all who are wise to make quick use of. Thank You for using our online searchable Strong's concordance and dictionary. You can get all these books at ANY Bible bookstore and most major bookstores. Or order from us right now click here The first keys are finding what the bible's definition of a word is in scripture, not in 21st Century word definitions or MAJORITY Religious Doctrines in the broad path which leadeth to destruction. These tools help you see how the original word is used through the entire text of scripture, thus render the BIBLE'S Definition of a word since we live by Every Word and not by bread alone.

Yoke-fellow (Phi 4:3), one of the apostle's fellow-labourers. Some have conjectured that Epaphroditus is meant. Wyckliffe renders the phrase "the german fellow", i.e., "thee, germane [= genuine] comrade."
Zaanaim Wanderings; the unloading of tents, so called probably from the fact of nomads in tents encamping amid the cities and villages of that region, a place in the north-west of Lake Merom, near Kedesh, in Naphtali. Here Sisera was slain by Jael, "the wife of Heber the Kenite," who had pitched his tent in the "plain [R.V., 'as far as the oak'] of Zaanaim" (Jdg 4:11). It has been, however, suggested by some that, following the LXX. and the Talmud, the letter b, which in Hebrew means "in," should be taken as a part of the word following, and the phrase would then be "unto the oak of Bitzanaim," a place which has been identified with the ruins of Bessum, about half-way between Tiberias and Mount Tabor.
Zaanan Place of flocks, mentioned only in Mic 1:11. It may be identified with Zenan, in the plain country of Judah (Jos 15:37).
Zaanannim =Zaanaim (Jos 19:33).
Zaavan Terror, one of the "dukes of Edom" (Gen 36:27); called also Zavan (Ch1 1:42).

He conspired against Joash, king of Judah, and slew him (Ch2 24:25, Ch2 24:26). He is called also Jozachar (Kg2 12:21). (4.) Ezr 10:27. (5.) Ezr 10:33. (6.) Ezr 10:43.
Zabbai Wanderer; pure. (1.) Ezr 10:28. (2.) The father of Baruch, who "earnestly repaired" part of the wall of Jerusalem (Neh 3:20; marg., "Zaccai").
Zabdi Gift of Jehovah. (1.) An ancestor of Achan (Jos 7:1, Jos 7:17, Jos 7:18). He is probably the "Zimri" of Ch1 2:6. (2.) A Benjamite (Ch1 8:19). (3.) Called "the Shiphmite," one of David's officers, who had charge of his vineyards (Ch1 27:27). (4.) A Levite, one of the sons of Asaph (Neh 11:17); probably the same as Zichri (Ch1 9:15), and Zaccur (Neh 12:35).
Zabdiel Gift of God. (1.) The father of Jashobeam, who was one of David's officers (Ch1 27:2). (2.) An overseer of the priests after the Captivity (Neh 11:14).
