The Biblical Hermeneutics Podcast

Dr. Paul Weaver, host of the Bible and Theology Matters Podcast, joins me this week to discuss theological method and it's relation with Biblical hermeneutics. Thank you for joining! 

Step number 5 of the exegetical process is to identify and define lexical keys, or key words in the passage of study. Is it as simple as looking up a definition in the dictionary? I'm afraid not! Enjoy! 

Thank you for joining! Step four of the interpretive method is to identify grammatical and syntactical keys. How to words relate to each other? Trust me, it's a worthy venture! 

What is the author's flow of thought/argument within his writing? Identifying the structural keys allow for the identification of authors argument, allowing for a proper understanding of the passage. Thanks for joining! 

The next step of the interpretive method is to identify the historical and cultural background of the book being studied as well as the specific passage being studied. In this episode, your host, John Oglesby, takes time to explore why and how to accomplish this! Thanks for joining! 

What's the next step of the exegetical process? Verify Text and Translation! Thanks for joining! 

What categories of interpretive tools exist to aid in the interpretation of the Scriptures? Your host, John Oglesby, goes over these tools and also gives an example of the first step of the exegetical process - reading the entire book of study three times. Thanks for joining!
