Afro-Asiatic Dictionaries Online
The Evangelical Textual Criticism blog notes that several classic dictionaries are online at Tyndale House.
- Gesenius' Hebrew dictionary
- Jastrow's Aramaic dictionary
- Payne Smith's Syriac dictionary
- Crum's Coptic dictionary
Each dictionary is indexed alphabetically and displays the appropriate page from a scanned image. When a letter is selected from the left, an list of page initial words for this letter is displayed in the abutting frame. The pages load reasonably fast considering each is a separate image file.
Be sure to bookmark each for easy reference when you might not have access to print versions.
