Exegesis 101
Why Every Believer Needs to Learn Proper Exegesis
Whether you are brand new to the faith or a seasoned veteran, you have probably heard the word “exegesis” in relation to Bible study. What is exegesis and is it important?
Scripture tells us that we should renounce “handling the word of God deceitfully” (2 Corinthians 4:2) and that we should be “rightly dividing the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15). The Bible is the truth and as God’s people, we must be careful not to twist and incorrectly handle the Word lest we mislead ourselves and others.
But how can we know if we’re interpreting the Bible’s messages the way they were intended? How can we study Scripture and be confident that we are “thinking God’s thoughts after Him?” And once we grasp good exegetical method, how can we better apply the truth we discover into our lives?
Join Professor of Exegesis and Pastor, Jason Peters, as he answers these questions and more in our free webinar. We’re excited to share with you how to dig down to the roots of biblical texts through an exegetical process by understanding their origins, grammar, and language in a careful analytical approach!
