A system of cross-referencing between related Greek words has been introduced.
As a didactic, mnemonic, and phonetic device, compound words are divided by small upright lines.
The maps of the UBS Greek New Testament are included.
A sampling of some Greek NT words that share similar meanings is included as an appendix to the dictionary.
