Hi Folks,

2Timothy 2:15
Study to shew thyself approved unto God,
a workman that needeth not to be ashamed,
rightly dividing the word of truth.

The next point to make clear is that the English sense of study that we have today was in the vocabularly of the King James Bible translators. It is simply a vocabulary/definitional myth to claim otherwise.

Ecclesiastes 12:12
And further, by these, my son, be admonished:
of making many books there is no end;
and much study is a weariness of the flesh.


In fact, the King James Bible even helps anybody who is still unsure with a little margin note.

Of course, lest anyone object, Soloman is not talking about the particular type of study of 2 Timothy .

Shalom,
Steven
