It has a lot of study tips that are right at your fingertips. Here are some phrases, terms and names that may help with those pesky Biblical languages. Yeshua: Jesus (Hebrew) (literally 'salvation') Iesous: Jesus (Greek) Moschiach: Messiah (H) Meschiach: also Messiah (slightly different transliteration spelling in Hebrew) ha Moschiach: the Messiah (H) Christos or Christou: Christ (G) (Note: Messiah and Christos both mean the same thing, anointed one) Melech/melekh: King (H) ha: Hebrew for 'the' olam ha ba: the world to come (H) ruach: spirit (H) kodesh: holy (H) Ruach ha Kodesh: Spirit the Holy (Holy Spirit in Hebrew) melech ha olam: King of the Universe or world (H) Avi: father (H) Pater: father (G) Abram: the Hebrew patriarch before his conversion Avram: same as Abram Avrahim: Abraham (H) Yusef: Joseph (Hebrew, Aramaic and Arabic) Miryam: Mary (H) Moshe/Moishe: Moses (H) Benyamin: son of the right hand, Benjamin Yitzhak: Isaac (H) Yakov: Jacob (Hebrew, but Russian and Slavic both use similar pronunciations) Malach: messenger (H) but used to describe heavenly beings whom we call angels Anyelos: messenger (G) the Greek equal of malach Malachi: my messenger kerubim: cherubim (H) a class of heavenly being Michael/Mikhael/Mikhail: who is like God (H), the chief prince of holy angels, Mikhail is Russian, but sometimes you may find the name spelled in this manner arche: (ar-kay) beginning or chief (G) arche-anyelos: chief messenger (G) kohen: priest (H) Aharon: Aaron (H) Moshe's brother Theos: God (G) dorea: gift (G) didomi: gifted (as from one to another) (G) dilectos: a dialect (G) glossai: a language (G) shalom: peace (H) Irene: peace (G) (ee-ree-nay) (both shalom and irene refer to personal inner peace and not necessarily the absence of war) shamayim: heavens (The 'im' on a Hebrew word is the equal of an 's' in English Shema: Hear! (H) Yisrael/Yisroel: Israel (H) The Shema: from Deuteronomy 6, it is literally the words Hear O Israel, the Lord our God is One God (Shema Yisrael, Adonai elohenu, Adonai Echad) Eretz/Erets: land eretz Yisrael: land (of) Israel (H) ohr: light (H) didaktos: teaching (G) Navi: prophet (H) Shem: the Hebrew word for 'name', but also a proper name in some cases ha Shem: a basic name in Hebrew for God; literally "The Name", many religious Jews use this term to refer to God YHVH, YHWH, or Yod Hin Vod Hin: the unspeakable Hebrew four letter name for God. YHWH is incorrect since there is no 'W' in Hebrew, but you will see it written in this way in some books. Using this term to a Jew is guaranteed to cause trouble, they consider using it taking God's name in vain, and many Orthodox consider it blasphemy. Yehovah: a pitiful attempt to transliterate YHVH into something pronounceable. Jehovah: an even more pitiful attempt of the above, a German transliteration of Yehovah Adonai/Adonoi: Lord (H) Baruch: praise or blessing (H) Baruch ha Shem: bless the Name (or praise the Lord if you prefer) (H) Logos: Greek for word, most precisely the word and the idea it conveys; Jesus is "the Logos" (John 1) or The Word rhema: a spoken word (h-ray-mah) (G) Yochanan: John (H) Mattityahu: Matthew (H) Lukas: Luke (G) tzadik: righteous (H) (say tsah-deek) El: God (H) Elohim: gods (or The One True God depending upon the context of the sentence) (H) El-Elyon: God Most High (H) Elohenu: your God (most commonly heard as Adonai Elohenu) Hopefully these will help you in sifting through the sometimes indecipherable morass of theological terms and phrases.

It's downloadable to your computer. It's called Interliner Scripture Analizer, or ISA. You can find it at scripture4all.org The program comes with a kjv bible. it gives you the orignal heberew and greek. as well as the literal translation and the english. It has a strong's concordance with it as well. I use it most to find the orginal greek/heberew words, then I open something like google and start researching the word or words. It's easy to use this program to search. It makes learning of usage of words, feminie/masculine and all the little neuiances of greek a lot easier to learn. I don't have a great formal education. but Like you said I don't mind donig the work. Using this bible program, has really opened scripture up to me. I hope this helps.

One can learn a lot from an Interlinear. Paul describes a condition of "ever learning, but never comming to the knowlege of the truth". If being an expert in the Hebrew and Greek languages results in knowing the truth it would be reasonable that persons who are naturally fluent in these languages would also interpretate the Bible correctly, but they cannot either.
