| Dec 19, 2017 at 4:52 | comment | added | robin | @RevelationLad There is significance in the word choices, they are, after all, God's words, like pure silver refined seven times, but then hermeneutics is not about God, but a particular approach to trying to understand the text. I personally believe, as ScottS says, "the Bible is verbally, plenary inspired by God, so every word matters," so when someone else says, "there is no significance," just take it with a grain of sand, and ask them to "show their work" ... hermeneutics.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/466/… | |

| Dec 15, 2017 at 15:08 | comment | added | Revelation Lad | @Lucian Textual critics see significance in word choice. One way to understand a writers choice of different words is to examine them within the various contexts the writer employs them. IMO this is hermenuetics. | |
| Dec 15, 2017 at 9:59 | comment | added | Lucian | What is the significance ? - There is no significance. It's like asking “why is the common Greek word for death unrelated to the common Greek word for corpse ?” Which, in itself, is like asking “why are the common English words for hand and foot unrelated to the common English words for gloves and socks ?” At any rate, the question belongs on a different site. | |
