That's why the new testament was written in Greek, it was the most commonly spoken language of the time, much like English is now. It's not that hard to search a Hebrew or Greek lexicon if you want to know what a word meant originally.

What you guys don't get with English is that words change in meaning over time...

Yep, english is special and unique.

Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
