Thank you, brother Bearbear. I’ve just asked my wife. She is really sure that WL was an expert in Greek and Hebrew.

james73, I agree with you that the concordance/dictionary approach is a good way to study the Bible or learn a new language but it can’t be the best way to understand neither the Bible nor the language. Some words and phrases, translated literally, will make no sense or have another meaning. Anyway, I agree with you about the party trick. In the LC they really think, "wow, Lee actually went back to the source while nobody else ever has".
