Hebrew and Greek Word-Study Fallacies

Abstract

"The purpose of this article is to present a list of seven word-study fallacies that are regularly committed in exegetical study and that are evident in sermons, commentaries, books, and scholarly arti-cles where statements are made about the meanings of biblical words. Each word-study fallacy is a misunderstanding of how word-meaning is determined; English, Hebrew, and Greek exam-ples (wherever possible) are given to show why a particular view of words and their meanings is incorrect"
