How to Interpret the Bible for Yourself: Introduction to Hermeneutics (Focus on the Bible)

by RichardMayhue (Author)

Synopsis

Misinterpretation of Scripture is one of the major problems that faces the Church. We are living in an image centred world that demands short cuts to answers, and has a limited attention span for study.

This book discusses the many obstacles that can keep us from a truly biblical interpretation of scripture. Mayhue's grasp of the methods of biblical interpretation enables him to provide our modern generation a simple way to understand what the Bible says and avoid the errors that are commonly made. It should be mandatory reading for anyone interested in finding out what scripture says.

Both scholar and new believer can be impacted by these studies. They cover a wide range of subjects and purposes including:

Teaching a basic Bible study method

Warning about interpretation mistakes

Exposing current theological error

Providing right steps to avoid wrong doctrine

Emphasizing truthfulness and trustworthiness of Scripture.
