Somewhere online you have heard that a Greek word really means something surprising, and often it does not. Word studies are powerful and easy to abuse. Each page below takes one important biblical word, gives its real range of meaning from the way it is actually used, clears up the popular myth, and shows how the word, rightly understood, opens onto Christ. Sober, honest, no tricks.
