Navigation
Most books that you read on the Kindle and the Nook are read linearly. That is, you read one page after the next. However, this is not typically the case with a dictionary, so we have provided a variety of techniques for you to be able to navigate efficiently and effectively. Both the Kindle version and the Nook version provide you with fully interactive tables of contents, and they also both provide ways in which you can quickly type in a precise entry to which to navigate. The details differ between the two platforms, but you can read more detail on how to navigate The Comprehensive Biblical Hebrew and Aramaic Glossary on the Kindle and how to navigate The Comprehensive Biblical Hebrew and Aramaic Glossary on the Nook.
