About the Author

JEFF A. BENNER desires to assist his readers with proper Biblical interpretation, based on the original cultural and linguistic context of the Bible, a key ingredient to Biblical studies that is often ignored, so they may gain a deeper understanding and insight into the intended meaning of the words of the Scriptures. To this end, he has dedicated over 30 years of research, documenting the connections between the language of the Bible and the culture in which it was written.
