I personally don't know Greek, and am only stating the words of Dr. Marvin
Arnold who does. He knows, Greek, and Hebrew, and was telling me that when
possible, the Hebrew was better to go to than the Greek. If you know Greek
and Hebrew, and prefer the Greek that's great. I myself, have to depend
upon my KJV, and other english versions, or what someone tells me.
