Raids on other dictionaries…”(John Chadwick, Lexicographica Graeca, Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1996, pp. 13)“The effort of making an unprejudiced analysis of the meanings of a word is considerable; small wonder that most scholars have found it easier to rely on another’s opinion, especially if enshrined in the dense print of a lexicon” (Chadwick, p. 27).Source #2: Bible Versions, Commentaries, and Short Synonym Dictionaries“The chapters on Vine’s and Strong’s dictionaries demonstrate that their so-called ‘definitions’ came directly from the vile Revised Version(1881) and American Standard Version (1902).” (Taylor, p. 93)“Newman based his lexicon on W.F. Moulton and Geden’s Concordance to the Greek Testament which is based on the adulterated Greek texts of “Westcott and Hort, Tischendorf and the English Revisers [Revised Version]” (Taylor, pp. 93, 91).Source #3: From Latin to German to English“The first Greek-English lexicon and the one from which all subsequent lexicons take their ‘definitions’ is the Liddell-Scott Greek-English Lexicon of 1843. It began merely as a translation of the Greek-German Lexicon of Passow” (Chadwick, p. 7).Johnson said, “…[T]here exists no independently conceived Greek dictionary.

One can see its influence everywhere” (Taylor, p. 68).“Actually its faults are much worse than most would suppose…its basic material is derived from predecessors, in some cases descending from the ancient lexicographers…” (Taylor, p. 68).“In other words, it is based primarily on existing lexicons; and so we continue to move around in this circle in which the faults of one lexicon are passed on to the next” (Taylor, pp. 68-70).“Some entries are plainly wrong, or partially wrong, as when he gives a series of synonyms, only some of which appear to be correct” (Chadwick, p. 13; Columbia Encyclopedia, ed.
