KJV Word TypeNoun
DefinitionThe process by which God breathed out Scripture through human authors. The KJV translates the Greek theopneustos as "given by inspiration of God" — literally "God-breathed." This foundational doctrine affirms that all Scripture has God as its ultimate Author, making it authoritative, infallible, and profitable for all of life.
