Hermeneutics

The lectures in this module are designed to teach a believer how to interpret and study the Bible himself. Paul wrote, in 2 Timothy, chapter 2, and verse 15, “Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” In this pas- sage, our gaze is set on the Lord himself, not the applause or favor of men. We’re to strive to please the Lord, the Master we serve, and to labor in a manner that does not bring shame.

What makes the Bible so unique and special, and what does the Bible say about itself? Without a firm concept of the nature of the Bible, we will be led into the possibility of many errors in interpreting Scripture. God himself provides principles for how to interpret his Word. In this lecture, we will consider the doctrines of Scripture and how they influence our interpretation.
