Pretty good resource

I didn’t realize this is not a full version of the 1828 dictionary. It’s a useful tool, but missing some important definitions that are different than contemporary usage, such as the term “criticism” referring to Biblical study.

Easy to use

Easy to use, basic dictionary, but the font size is small and I would like to be able to expand it on my iPhone.

Great for Study

I use this application on both my phone and MacBook Air. As a minister, I often prepare lessons using Microsoft PowerPoint or Word, and while studying scripture passages, having this dictionary readily accessible is incredibly convenient. I highly recommend this product.
