This in-depth, historically oriented word study demonstrates how important a historical approach is to a correct understanding of the Bible. While Dr. Collier’s scholarship is of the highest quality, he is also a gifted teacher and communicator. His writing is clear and winsome. His book is filled with down-to-earth wisdom and he effectively debunks much nonsense spread by well-meaning, but poorly informed, Christians. Most importantly, he himself writes as a committed Christian with an earnest desire to advance the gospel in our needy world. I recommend this book with the greatest enthusiasm.”

George Eldon Ladd Professor Emeritus of New Testament, Fuller Theological Seminary
author of Matthew 1-13; Matthew 14-28; and A Historical and Theological Introduction
Description:
This book asks what ancient biblical and related texts actually mean by the Greek word γραφή (graphē), usually translated “Scripture” in the NT, and whether that English rendering is still appropriate today. By tracing the term across a wide range of literature and challenging common translation, dictionary, and preaching habits, it offers a compact but provocative rethinking of one of Christianity’s most important words.
