The Word Translated "Workmanship" Is Where English Gets "Poem"

"Restore the Years the Locust Hath Eaten" Shares a Root With Shalom

The Word James Uses for "Vapour" Also Means Steam and Breath

The main Hebrew word behind "repent" — shuv — appears more than 1,000 times in the Old Testament. And at its root, it isn't a religious word at all. It's a plai

Ephesians Says God "Made Us Sit" With Christ — and the Grammar Means It Is Already Done

In Psalm 23, Goodness and Mercy Don't Gently Follow You — the Hebrew Says They Hunt You Down

The Bible Ties Your Personal Restoration to the Restoration of the Entire Universe
