Interpreting the New Testament Text: Introduction to the Art and Science of Exegesis

Rate this book
With the widespread availability of English Bible translations, the question can easily be asked, Why bother with the hard work of biblical exegesis? Computers can translate foreign languages and many English translations take us very close to the original words and meaning of the Bible. But the answer is clear: the deepest truths of the Bible are found through the deepest study. This book teaches the principles, methods, and fundamentals of exegeting the New Testament, and offers examples of textual exegesis that clearly and helpfully show the value of exegeting a text well. Serious students of Scripture will benefit from using this book in their study of the Bible.

A solid guide to proper exegesis and forming conclusions on important issues is Scripture.

Като цяло доста скучно, но за сметка на това обемно, изложение. Има няколко статии, които са доста добри - най-вече за тълкуване на разказите и посланията както и използването на Стария Завет в Новия на Д. Бок.
Пропуснах последната част, която разглежда практически примери понеже за момента не ме интересува.
Книга, в която могат да се намерят някои доста полезни неща, но която сне бих препоръчал като помагало за въведение в новозаветното тълкуване.
