Sure, Tom Paine, I’m with you on the importance of learning the biblical languages, but very few people today have the time, temperament, and aptitude for that.

So, with all due respect, your comment doesn’t really address the vast majority of people who want to more deeply study and understand God’s written word. That’s why I recommended those Scripture-study resources in the first place.

I guess I’m a confused Bible student.

The Bible is in English. Strong’s has both Hebrew and Greek in its concordance.

Libraries are filled with commentaries, and on difficult passages, it is easy to narrow down the contentious issues (like Revelation 17).

There is NO NEED to learn either Greek or Hebrew.
