Bible Note: Hi Doc, Naturally, I look to the real scholars to help me understand what I read. The translators, the commentators, teachers, pastors, and so on, teach me. Of course, no matter how learned or how revered the scholars, their words are not God-breathed Scripture itself, so I will always look to the text as the primary source. When all of the translators and commentators and pastor/teachers are in agreement, with each other and with the Scripture, there is much confidence. But even should they disagree with Scripture, I still have confidence in the Scripture. Love in Christ, Mark |
