Similarly, the best way to learn the most about something or to learn it best is to teach it.

True for many. How many read long manuals before starting to use a new car or equipment?
There is another aspect to teaching biblical language. One teacher in a theological seminar said that for future church workers, they teach enough of Greek and Hebrew that those persons understand to keep their hands off these languages. Only those who will become pastors are given such teaching that they can work confidently with original scriptures. The reason for this decision seemed to be some kind of mental trauma caused by the know-it-all interpreters in the social media that have an interlinear translation, a lexicon and an overconfident attitude of knowing what the writer of the scripture meant.

I don’t understand what that blighter is going on about. I cover almost as much ground every night to and from the loo.

The left-hand rule? Or is that a mirror image.
Not if you’re skipping.
Yeah basically, you can use the left hand and just flip the result you get. Unless it’s a negatively charged particle then you would just use your left hand in the first place.

I hadn’t remembered there were that many applications and vorticity I had never heard of.
Ah well you should see the things kids these days are studying:

That was actually a fairly heavy-duty question since it depended on whether or not angels are even material or whether they can just take on material form on occasion.

I dunno… I mean theoretically your number of footsteps can approach infinity, but there’s this little problem of mortality.

My son’s and my favorite is, “I have more wisdom than all my teachers, for I meditate on your word.”

Haha. I used to post a “Quote of the Week” on my whiteboard when I taught in juvenile detention. I enjoyed picking stuff from Proverbs.
The wise in heart accept commands,
but a chattering fool comes to ruin.
When pride comes, then comes disgrace,
but with humility comes wisdom.
Whoever seeks good finds favor,
but evil comes to one who searches for it.
The way of fools seems right to them,
but the wise listen to advice.
Fools show their annoyance at once,
but the prudent overlook an insult.
I could go on forever. (And practically did!)

With humility and wisdom the former almost always leads to more of the latter. Only wisdom can tempt one away from humility. But when it does it leads away from wisdom too.
That reminds me of the saying,
Revenge is a dish best served cold.
Probably not a biblical proverb though. I think the OT God wanted to keep all of that to Himself.
