Idx: Hermeneutics (Bible Interpretation)
Hermeneutics – refers to the principles of correctly interpreting the Word of God such that we arrive at the understanding of God’s word that God wants us to have. These principles should guide us away from doctrinal error and misinterpretation. Here the key concept is exegesis (the drawing out of a text its meaning) and NOT eisegesis (reading into a text a presupposed interpretation that cannot legitimately be gotten out of that text).
