Yes, and I really do believe that dispensationalists aren’t reading the bible. they are reading the opinions of men regarding the bible.

Truly, it never surprises me that some of my brothers and sisters in Christ are more comfortable turning to commentaries written by men when the Scriptures are not clear.

As for me, when something is not clear, I pray and meditate and then read the Scriptures - not with a magnifying glass, just read them casually, waiting for the Spirit to bring the words of God alive within. He has never disappointed me.

Praise God!!!

I can only speak for myself on that score. But for all the formative years on the matter, I read the KJV, period. God made a number of things clear over those years through my reading, praying, prayerfully pondering and waiting on Him.

It’s still my preferred way though I do certainly consider a diversity of inputs on such things nowadays.
