Amen! We often end our prayers with this ancient Hebrew word, but what does it really mean? Shalom, another common Hebrew word, is usually translated as “peace,” yet it infers so much more!

50 Hebrew Words Every Christian Should Know is a treasure trove of information that helps readers explore the Hebrew meaning of important words in the Old Testament. Straightforward and accessible, this reference pamphlet and Bible-study aid offers the basics in each entry: English transliteration and Hebrew spelling, a key Scripture, pronunciation and definition, a short explanation, and relevant Scripture references.

Example:

• Chayn
  Gen. 6:8: “Noah found favor in the eyes of the LORD.”
  Favor, grace. This kind of favor often comes as relief from a bad situation. Chayn is a gift that isn’t deserved, and it brings healing or hope, like when Boaz shows favor to Ruth when she is in need.
