Your lexicon is dangerous for your interpretation of Scripture if you don’t know how to use it! Todd Price (PhD, Corpus Linguistics and NT) explains how not to use your lexicon and why more language nerds might consider being a missionary-scholar. As the Roma Bible Translation Coordinator for Pioneers and author of Structural Lexicology and the Greek New Testament (Gorgias Press), he is certainly qualified to discuss both.

The two posts on 1/4/2018 at ExegeticalTools.com seem to be two sides of the same coin
Your interview describes the need for creating new Bible exposition tools (non-royalty) that would provide the basis for thousands of languages to have those tools available in their native tongues.
Todd Scacewater’s post describes the difficulty for skilled Bible expositors to find jobs and ways to enhance their CVs by publishing skilled Biblical content
It would be wonderful if the there was a way for those in seminary studies could gain “publishing credit” for providing content using the tools you described at unfoldingword.org
Isn’t it far better to create non-royalty tools used by BILLIONS better than being published in a journal that few read containing details beyond the average reader?

This is very well said, and yes, I wholeheartedly agree!
