Synopsis

This book explores the inefficiencies found in current biblical interpretation methods, particularly in their failure to establish a consistent and comprehensive approach. It argues that while there are many valid exegetical principles, these principles are not properly applied due to the lack of a guiding method. The author claims that this book presents a new method of interpretation that can resolve the discrepancies found in current approaches. The author examines the history of hermeneutics and points out the failures of previous methods, such as the mysticism of the Middle Ages and the dogmatic approach of Protestantism. The author then presents a new method, based on the inductive method of science, which emphasizes the careful collection and examination of evidence. This method is said to allow for a more objective and accurate interpretation of the Bible, free from the biases and assumptions of previous methods. The book concludes by arguing that this new method is essential for restoring the authority and relevance of the Bible in the modern world.
