**How to avoid the most common mistakes in Bible word studies, helping you avoid overconfident claims from the pulpit or classroom.**
Mark Ward—author of _Authorized: The Use_ and _Misuse of the King James Bible_—equips readers for accurate Bible study by unpacking how we know what biblical words mean, and why ignoring basic principles of language can lead to flawed Bible teaching.
Combining linguistic insight with pastoral warmth and humor, _Words Gone Wrong_ provides actionable methods for accurate Bible study by teaching you:
* Why it's vital to let ancient languages speak in their own historical context and how to do so. * How some Hebrew and Greek terms have become part of English church vocabulary and how to distinguish them from their biblical originals. * How to evaluate popular teaching errors that distort Scripture by misusing Hebrew and Greek. * How to responsibly use biblical language tools like Strong's Concordance—and what to use instead.
Ward helps you build confidence in the reliability of modern Bible translations, and he clarifies instances where Greek offers more precision than English—and where it doesn't. He closes with some concrete word study advice and helps you handle differences between Bible translations with confidence, turning them into opportunities for deeper study rather than sources of doubt.
Accessible, precise, and often witty, _Words Gone Wrong_ is an essential tool for pastors, teachers, and all who want to understand God’s Word faithfully.
