Thanks for the wonderful illustration of the root fallacy.

Just doin’ my job. I chose not to use that particular technical terminology, but you are absolutely right with that label.

HA, I was just talking to my brother about this. In my experience when a pastor uses the phrase "in the Greek" 80% of the time what comes next will be either unhelpful, unnecessary, or untrue. Unfortunately it seems that many commentaries are filled with these types of "hidden gems" that breakdown the original words in ways they were never meant to be broken. It becomes the "numerology" approach to language. My example to my brother was that it would be like someone in the future saying when he used the word "dogmatic" he is calling to mind robotic dogs that would bite down and never let go.

These are helpful thank you

Just found you. I received my "Bible Study" magazine. I have 3 or 4 sets of books for word translations. I found out that one word does not mean the same across the board/verse.

Right! Very true.

I agree. And next time, we can talk about the meaning of "awesome" ;-)
Thank you for these videos.

Great video, nevertheless.
