Best Swadaya Dictionary for the Peshitta, including Tanach? - dowidh - 03-23-2009

Shlama Kol,

This has probably been asked a thousand times over... but..
What is the best dictionary for looking up words found in the New Testament and Tanach Peshitta with Eastern vowels? I know there are so many great books and online search engines for looking up meanings, but I'd love to have one that actually has the vowels in it. So one day, I could just read through the dictionary and memorise all the words.

David R.

Shlama David,

Oraham's (Abraham's) Dictionary is my personal favourite - Dean Dana has it available, I believe, on his aramaicbooks.com site.
