![]() ![]() In other words, you can see some of the added English words that are not in the original. (Yes I know small parts of the OT are in Aramaic but they are not very many verses).Ī word for word Bible is good basically to see what Greek vocabulary is underlying a verse. First of all, they ignore English grammar, and they try to represent as best as they can the Greek or Hebrew grammar, and quite frankly, the order is all wrong most of the time between either of the biblical languages and English. They may be right a lot of times, but still they don’t know what they are doing. If a person does not know how to translate from the Greek or Hebrew Bible into English, then they are not any kind of expert source, and mostly they should be ignored. Somebody who know the noun cases in Greek think they know a lot, but their little knowledge is puffing up their head, and they are given to be dogmatic in their actual ignorance.

So if that is what you want and you want the absolute BEST source, then none of these Bibles is it. The truth of the matter is, you want to know what God has said in a passage, and how He said it and the inflections and other not so easy to pin down parts of that communication.
