I get your point and I believe it is important preachers, and missionaries to make sure that they speak in such a way that their audience can easily understand.

I believe Einstein nailed it when he said: "If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough."

Good point and this probably why my Greek profs told us to always discreetly 'sight read' our Greek New Testaments on spot into the clear idiomatic vernacular language when reading out loud to others in a congregational setting( unless of course, we were in a Greek Orthodox congregations). Those of us who were not yet proficient at doing that were to carry a pocket/handbook sized parallel Greek-English Bible or interlinear Greek Bible.
