BIBLICAL WORDS AND THEIR MEANING: An Introduction to Lexical Semantics
This volume explores the essential discipline of lexical semantics within biblical studies, offering believers a roadmap for understanding how Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek words function to convey God’s truth. From the distinctive features of each biblical language to the implications for translation and interpretation, readers are guided to handle the inspired text with reverence and confidence.
Drawing on a conservative approach that resists liberal skepticism, the book explains practical methods for identifying a word’s range of meaning, investigating context, and navigating figurative language. It underscores that the meaning of each term belongs to the inspired authors rather than to modern theories or interpretive translations. By emphasizing literal, word-for-word rendering, the text helps readers discern biblical doctrine rooted in the actual words chosen by Jehovah’s prophets and apostles.
Far from an academic exercise, this study aims to enrich personal devotion, preaching, and teaching by reconnecting believers with Scripture’s original expressions. Through case studies, insights on translation practice, and ample references to Old and New Testament passages, the work displays how precise word studies reveal the unchanging voice of God—one that still addresses the church today with life-giving power.
