This comprehensive book is for anyone who wants to understand and apply the Bible - and the New Testament in particular - in a faithful and God-glorifying way. Andrew Naselli is an able guide, walking readers through a carefully field-tested, twelve-stage interpretive process, that pastors, teachers and laypeople can use with benefit.
Readers will:
- Move from genre to textual criticism, take Greek grammar and literary context into account, and journey through the passage all the way to practical application
- Learn how to track an author's thought-flow, grasp the text's message, and apply the ancient Word in this modern world - all in light of Christ's redeeming work
- Go further in their studies using the extensive recommended resources for every step of the way
"[Naselli's book] is wonderfully clear and accessible... At the same time, it is packed with information so that readers are instructed in the art of interpretation. There are many resources out there on how to interpret the Scriptures, but this is surely one of the best."?
