Bible Question:
In Acts2:14-39 (Peter's Sermon) What key words in the Greek/Hebrew were significant in the english translation? And what words are signifigant to understand this passage? |
Bible Answer: Hello Learner, For starters, knowing a bit about the grammer is very helpful as this can assist you in identifying the main subject of each sentence and the verbs (showing where the action is). A good grammar source like A.T. Robertson's Word Pictures, Vincent's Word Studies, or Weust can be very helpful in this regard. Additionally, a quality Commentary can help shed light on the passage(s) and specific meaning of key words. Aside from that, your own personal study, giving consideration to prophetic quotations (i.e. Joel 2:28-30) and the placement of Acts within the scope of the entire Bible are key to a solid understanding of the passage. You can't isolate Acts 2 from the rest of scripture in trying to understand it. May God guide you and bless you as you seek understanding:-) BradK |
