The Exegetical Fallacies Nobody Warns You About

Most Bible word studies are built on mistakes nobody warned you about.
Dr. Rob Plummer — professor at Southern Seminary and creator of Daily Dose of Greek — sits down to walk through the exegetical fallacies that quietly distort what a passage actually says. We cover which tools help, which ones mislead you, whether AI has a real place in Greek study, a free lexicon resource almost no one knows about, and the grammar debate that's dividing Greek scholars right now.
Whether you read Greek or not, this conversation will change how you read your Bible.
GIVEAWAY — One winner from Biblical Studies & Reviews + one winner from Daily Dose of Greek will each receive a set of books from Dr. Plummer. To enter, leave a comment on this video. Drawing on or around August 21, 2026.
