          "Many Christians ask, “Can I trust AI Bible Commentary?” The answer must be careful. AI can organize study, clarify questions, and point readers to resources. But it can also sound confident while being wrong, shallow, or doctrinally imprecise.",
          "Trust should therefore be limited and conditional. The believer may use AI as a study aid, but should never treat AI as a spiritual authority."

          "AI commentary becomes more trustworthy when it follows strict controls: Scripture first, context required, grammatical-historical interpretation, doctrinal safeguards, uncertainty labels, and refusal to speculate. It should distinguish direct teaching from inference and application.",
          "It should also link readers back to Bible text, commentary, dictionary support, and study tools rather than encouraging dependence on one generated answer."

          "If the answer sounds good but cannot point back to Scripture, it is not trustworthy as interpretation."

          "AI may assist the servant work of study, but it must never occupy the throne of authority."
