To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is evident, however, that a verbal concordance can serve but imperfectly as a subject index ; the significant topics do not always correspond to particular words, and a large part of the words included in a concordance would be a useless encumbrance in an index of topics. Accordingly, this feature must be regarded as incidental, and should not be allowed to inter- fere with more obvious purposes. The chief use of concordances to the Bible has perhaps been in the locating of texts and in the ...finding of parallel passages ; but their usefulness for linguistic investigation was early appreciated. During the Council of Basel (1431-1449) it was found to be a defect of the concordances then available that the declinable words alone were indexed. Theological discussions some- times turned on the exact meaning of an adverb or a preposition ; accordingly, a concordance of indeclinable particles was prepared, and it was printed at Basel in 1496 as a part of Conrad's concord- ance (which had been printed at Strassburg in 1470 and in 1475).
