Synopsis
There are many books for laymen on how to interpret the Bible. In this short volume, however, Professor Jansen performs a unique service to the lay student of Scripture. He outlines the task of interpretation, with all its pitfalls and opportunities. He then carries the reader another step by demonstrating the process of Biblical interpretation. The author selects four passages for interpretation. They are difficult and at the same time highly instructive examples. Each passage is examined in terms of what it meant in the context of its times, and in the context of the larger portion of Scripture of which it is a part. The author then moves to the question of what the passage means in today's world. This is a book that seeks to assist the layman in developing his own skills of interpretation. It is also a readable and an inspiring treatment of the meaning of God's Word for this generation.
