Interpretation of Scripture

Holy Biblical interpretation requires requires regeneration by the Holy Spirit, an open attitude, and illumination by the Holy Spirit. It also really helps to have some order to your method of seeking God's disclosure in the text. The references below are not without some difficulties but provide order and method to what might otherwise be speculative pretense and chaos.

Bible Interpretation - Hermeneutics

http://www.bible-interpretation.com/index.html

The site is easy and accesible and provides a usable although 'vanilla' anglo - American evangelical approach to interpretation.  Its beauty is that it is easy to read and practice.  Its down side is that it has an overly simplistic view of 'one meaning-one-truth' per verse mentality to God's profound revelation.  I still recommend it because it is a simple pass key to the doors of the sacred.  There is far more to God's text than this approach but forf now it is a good beginning.  Also, the author states little about his belief and doctrine which is worrisome.  From my scrutiny of the site it seems safe however.

SancTified Vision: Early Christian Interpretation of the Bible - J. O'Keefe and R. Reno

Now
here is an unusual book correcting the univocity of those who think the
literal grammatical historical hermeneutic is the only game that was
ever in town.  Typology and allegory from Augustine to Gregory of Nyssa
are explored and insight into the value and holiness of their
approaches cause one to pause in awe remembering there are many ways of
saying Being.   Not a light read but insightful especially for the
trained western American exegete.

Figuring the Sacred: Religion, Narrative, and Imagination by Paul Ricoeur and David Pellauer

This one is a good balance of rational
hermeneutics with narrative theology.  It is not an easy read though but I recommend it for those of you who want to approach the
study of God and life through Scripture from a different angle.
