The word Lord and the Bible
The bible is an English translation, yet the events take place in ancient Africa and Asia, therefore using a multi-lingual dictionary or concordance when studying can help to determine if the meaning of words have changed with the translations. The word Lord is an English word, it is a title not a name.
