2 Timothy 3:16 is commonly translated, "All Scripture is inspired" or "God-breathed." Apart from what that metaphorical language on its own might suggest to the English reader, what observations can be made about the recorded history of God's speech as it proceeds from God's utterance to written Scripture? Dr. Brent Sandy taught New Testament and Greek at Wheaton College and chaired the Department of Religious Studies at Grace College, Indiana. His most recent book is Hear Ye the Word of the Lord: What We Miss If We Only Read the Bible. He is coauthor (with John Walton) of The Lost World of Scripture: Ancient Literary Culture and Biblical Authority , among other things.
