Description
Dive deep into scripture with this resource book. This book helps guide the reader on how to approach scripture in an inductive and objective manner. This book address two main goals 1) it addresses why the Bible is worth studying, 2) addresses certain factors that are involved in a methodical study of scripture. This is not just a book to read through from cover to cover then sit it on your shelf. It is a book to read through, then sit back down and read through again with your Bible wide open. It is suggested to read the book in its entirety before jumping into the practice of a methodical, inductive, study of the Bible. Many examples are given throughout the text to practice what you are learning as you progress from observations, to interpretations, to applications, to correlations. This makes a great study aide in any Bible study for the lay person, academic, or advanced theologian. 269 pgs, pb. ~Rebecca
Publisher's Description of Methodical Bible Study
This inductive study in a simple, practical textbook in hermeneutics compares related Bible texts in order to let the Bible interpret itself.
Inductive study compares related Bible texts in order to let the Bible interpret itself, rather than approaching Scripture with predetermined notions of what it will say. Dr. Traina's Methodical Bible Study was not intended to be the last word in inductive Bible study; but since its first publication in 1952, it has become a foundational text in this field. Christian colleges and seminaries have made it required reading for beginning Bible students, while many churches have used it for their lay Bible study groups. Dr. Traina summarizes its success in this comment: "If the truths of the Bible already resided in man, there would be no need for the Bible and this manual would be superfluous. But the fact is the Bible is an objective body of literature which exists because man needs to know certain truths which he himself cannot know. There are two main approaches open to the Bible student. One is deduction, which begins with generalizations and moves for their support to the particulars. By its very nature deduction tends to be subjective and prejudicial. Its opposite, induction, is objective and impartial; for it demands that one first examine the particulars of the Scriptures and that one's conclusions be based on those particulars. Such an approach is sound because, being objective, it corresponds to the objective nature of the Scriptures." This book fills the need for a simple, practical textbook in hermeneutics. It encourages the serious Bible student to practice the best kind of hermeneutic, which allows the Word of God to speak for itself.
