So
true, but sadly, the illiterate or the country bumpkin with a 4th-grade
education will miss out on some incredible and wow-ing insights gained from
deep study in the Hebrew or Greek. Are they necessary? No... that's never been
argued to my knowledge (and even if it has, it's not been MY argument).
Does Hebrew and Greek create a fuller understanding?
Absolutely.

jt: Thanks for that Terry, my late FIL is a perfect
example. He had a 4th grade education and book learning was
definitely not his forte, although he had all
kinds of country wisdom. He could grow things and take care of live
stock. He gave his animals shots and sewed up
dogs that had been gored by pigs. He was a godly man with a giving heart and the only book in his house was the
KJV Bible. He could read and understand that and he was an influence for
God upon all he came in contact with (including
me).
