_The first Greek concordance_ to the New Testament was published at
Basel in 1546 by Sixt Birck or Xystus Betuleius (1500-1554), a
philologist and minister of the Lutheran Church. This was followed by
Stephen's concordance (1594) planned by Robert Stephens and published by
Henry, his son. Then in 1638 came Schmied's [Greek: tamieion], which has
been the basis of subsequent concordances to the New Testament. Erasmus
Schmied or Schmid was a Lutheran divine who was professor of Greek in
Wittenberg, where he died in 1637. Revised editions of the [Greek:
tamieion] were published at Gotha in 1717, and at Glasgow in 1819 by the
University Press. In the middle of the 19th century Charles Hermann
Bruder brought out a beautiful edition (Tauchnitz) with many
improvements. The _apparatus criticus_ was a triumph of New Testament
scholarship. It collates the readings of Erasmus, R. Stephens' third
edition, the Elzevirs, Mill, Bengel, Webster, Knapp, Tittman, Scholz,
Lachmann. It also gives a selection from the most ancient patristic
MSS. and from various interpreters. No various reading of critical value
is omitted. An edition of Bruder with readings of Samuel Prideaux
Tregelles was published in 1888 under the editorship of Westcott and
Hort. The _Englishman's Greek Concordance of the New Testament_, and the
_Englishman's Hebrew and Chaldee Concordance_, are books intended to put
the results of the above-mentioned works at the service of those who
know little Hebrew or Greek. Every word in the Bible is given in Hebrew
or Greek, the word is transliterated, and then every passage in which it
occurs is given--the word, however it may be translated, being
italicized. They are the work of George V. Wigram assisted by W. Burgh
and superintended by S. P. Tregelles, B. Davidson and W. Chalk (1843;
2nd ed. 1860). Another book which deserves mention is, _A Concordance to
the Greek Testament with the English version to each word; the principal
Hebrew roots corresponding to the Greek words of the Septuagint, with
short critical notes and an index_, by John Williams, LL.D., Lond. 1767.

In 1884 Robert Young, author of an analytical concordance mentioned
below, brought out a _Concordance to the Greek New Testament with a
dictionary of Bible Words and Synonyms_: this contains a concise
concordance to eight thousand changes made in the Revised Testament.
Another important work of modern scholarship is the
