Let me introduce you to some concepts in my field of teaching English as an alternate language. Yes, there are some definite grammar components, but there are also the nonverbal communication implications of intonation. When English is spoken, there is natural tendency to emphasize certain words in a sentence. When we stress a word that is not typical, it is for the purpose of emphasis and meaning. For example, if I pointed out to the sales associate that I wanted to see the blue item, I am inferring that there are many colours available to me, but I would really like to see the blue one, not the yellow one or the red one.
Sometimes, if we read Scripture with a different emphasis on words, a new meaning seems to come to light. The Lord is my Shepherd.
The Lord is my Shepherd.
