Summary/Abstract: The danger to oversee something in text analysis is much higher than in statistics, since statistical models can easily be controlled with quantitive models, while a text analysis which does not use quantitive models has no mathematical formula to control the theories. In other words, qualitative methods have no automatisms to detect mistakes properly, if the method was used correctly. Such a mistake appeared in my paper Tracking from Adam and Eve to the Amalekites in the 2012 Chechen translation of the Holy Bible – Where does specific terminology come from? which was published in Volume 2 Issue 1 (2018) of this journal after being reviewed properly. At first, we must be aware how the mistake could happen. The article was dedicated to a Bible analysis of a Chechen Bible.
