Okay I think I understand now. It is okay to use a commentary written by scholars (who know Greek and Hebrew and who were not KJV only advocates or TR only advocates) to understand the English. But it is not okay to learn Hebrew and Greek and study the text yourself so that you can better evaluate the conclusions of others.

Too bad Jack Hyles did not get the memo before he passed away.

See the exerpt from one of his sermons: What Changes a Church by Jack Hyles

“(2) He loses his vision. Proverbs 29:18 says, Where there is no vision, the people perish. That means when a leader has lost his vision for the members, the members perish. It does not mean that if I have no vision for myself, I will perish, but if I have no vision for my people, they will perish.

I have visions for my church. I have visions for the young people. My heart is broken when the young people do not fulfill the visions I have for them. I have visions for the kind of young ladies that our young men will marry. I have visions for the kind of young men our young ladies will marry. I have visions for Hyles-Anderson College. I have visions for Hammond Baptist Schools. I have visions for the First Baptist Church of Hammond. I have visions for the kind of Christians I want my people to be.”

Too bad he could not have just referred to another English translation like the NKJV and used it like a commentary. It may have been helpful for someone who has no need to study the original languages.

Proverbs 29:18 (NKJV) Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint; But happy is he who keeps the law.
