Exegesis and Exposition




Over the last forty (40) years I have written a number of quotes, comments, pithy sayings, and poems in the fly-leafs of my bibles. Each Tuesday I am going to share those various entries from my bibles with you. I hope they will be as much of blessing to you as they have been to me. Sometimes I will be able to give credit where credit is due and sometimes I won’t be able to credit the source. I apologize for this to each one who contributed these gems over the last forty (40) years.

TODAY'S TREASURE:



Exegesis leads to Exposition

Exegesis includes bridging the:

Historical Gap
Grammatical Gap
Cultural Gap
Contextual Gap

Exegesis includes introductory survey:

Author
Audience
Age
Aim
Argument
Application

Read the Text
Explain the Text
Apply the Text

"Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine." (I Timothy 4:13)

(Something I scratched in my flyleaf a long time ago from somewhere- it is still true today)
