In this episode of The Elephant Room, Dr. Scott Stewart tackles one of the biggest—and most overlooked—issues in modern Christian understanding: the original language of the Bible. While many believers approach Scripture through a Greek lens, Dr. Stewart uncovers why Hebrew plays a far more dominant role in the biblical narrative and why recognizing this matters for interpreting Jesus’ words, Hebrew idioms, and even familiar Old Testament stories. From “a good eye” to “ravens feeding Elijah,” this episode explores how missing the Hebraic context can distort meaning—and how rediscovering it can illuminate the Scriptures in powerful ways. Join Dr. Stewart on this theological safari as he exposes the elephant in the room: the Bible speaks Hebrew, and understanding that changes everything.
