What is Biblical Philology

Biblical Philology in a nut shell is 'Evidence Based Research'. It looks at language, customs, scope and structure, word studies, textual criticism, and historical references.


God's Word is absolutely perfect as it was God-breathed to Holy Men who spake as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. As such it is inexhaustible in height and unfathomable in depth. We can see 'the Word' as interpreting itself and needs no private interpretation from man to understand it. 

My Favorite Things

I love rainy days because my spouse makes hot chocolate and we watch TV in bed all day. My favorite color is green because it reminds me of the Green Mountains of Vermont! Even though I live on the West Coast now, New England is one of the best places to visit.
