Biblical Hermeneutics and Exegesis#
About this Class#
“Biblical hermeneutics” is the art and science of biblical interpretation. “Biblical exegesis” is part of the hermeneutical process as it is concerned to get the meaning out of the text. (“Ex” is a Greek preposition meaning “out of.”) Both hermeneutics and biblical exegesis are an art because it can take a while to learn how to do it proficiently. It is a science in that there are specific rules that need to be followed. Dr. Strauss covers the four basic rules of biblical exegesis and then the ten steps to doing exegesis. He will also discuss how to do word studies and apply what you are learning.
