124 - Mistakes To Avoid In Biblical Word Studies

The Preaching Matters Podcast

In this episode, we continue talking about biblical word studies. Today, we want to discuss six mistakes we can make when doing word studies.
Here is what not to do:
1. Don’t conduct English-only word studies.
2. Don’t rely on a word’s etymology.
3. Don’t ignore how a word’s usage changes over time.
4. Don’t collect evidence for a word’s meaning in an unbalanced way.
5. Remember when a concept is present, though the word isn’t.
6. Don’t be frightened into quitting.
If you can think of anything I missed, reach out and let me know.
