Identify the original Greek word
  1. The Greek-English Concordance is arranged according to G/K #. If you do not know the G/K # of your word, look in "The English-Greek Index to the NIV New Testament" near the back of the book, starting on page 804. (You might need to look in the concordance to confirm that the Greek word you are looking at occurs in the passage you are studying.)
    • The index shows:
      1. NIV word
      2. NIV frequency
      3. G/K #
      4. transliteration
      5. frequency (total # of times this word is translated by the entry word in the NIV New Testament)
    • Example (page 913):
      1. LORD
      2. [617]
      3. Lord, 3261
      4. kyrios 
      5. [601]
  2. Look in "A Concise Greek-English Dictionary to the New Testament" starting on page 1022. 
    • The dictionary shows:
      1. G/K #
      2. Greek word and transliteration
      3. part of speech
      4. concise definition
      5. Strong's #
      6. BAGD page
      7. NIDNTT (Colin Brown) page

Create a list of every occurance
  • Unlike translation-based concordances (like the NIV or NASB), The Greek-English Concordance is arranged according to G/K # so you can see every occurrence of the Greek word, not the English word.
  • The Main Concordance section shows (see page viii):
    1. G/K #
    2. Greek word, transliteration
    3. frequency count [USB4 / NIV]
    4. list of related words (by G/K #)
    5. phrase index, in Greek with English translation, with frequency count and textual references
    6. list of NIV translations in descending order of frequency
    7. list of references with some of the verse context for the word
  • Example (page 444):
    1. 3261
    2. kyrios
    3. [717 / 720]
    4. 2894, 3257, 3258, 3259, 3262, cf. 3263
