Interpreting Scripture requires diligent effort on the part of the Biblical interpreter. With respect to this, read 2 Timothy 2:14-19 and meditate on Paul’s words to Timothy.
This week in Advanced Hermeneutics, we will consider the discipline of exegesis and its role within Biblical hermeneutics. Uncovering an author’s intended meaning can set the interpreter up for a lifetime’s worth of work if the interpreter is committed to understanding how meaning is created and understood.
Consider the following questions this week:
- Why is it important for you to read the Bible?
- What does it mean for the interpreter to “rightly handle the word of truth”?
